bug : unnecessary/undesirable ajax request?

    With reference to WP Photo Album Plus v6.4.11 : js/wppa.js, line 279, tests for being “allowed and capable to ajax” using…

    // Are we allowed and capable to ajax?
if ( wppaAllowAjax && jQuery.ajax() ) {
	wppaCanAjaxRender = true;
}

    If wppaAllowAjax is true then the call to jQuery.ajax() results in a totally unnecessary ajax retrieval of the current page!

    I don’t believe that it is necessary for the test to call jQuery’s ajax function, surely it only needs to check that the function exists, eg…

    // Are we allowed and capable to ajax?
if ( wppaAllowAjax && jQuery.ajax ) {
...

    I thank you on my bare knees from the bottom of my heart that you finally discovered the cause of a bug that causes ‘unexplainable’ reloads.

    This issue has been brain-breaking to me for years. I will fix it as you suggested in the next version. It will surely improve performance.

    Once again:

    TNANK YOU!
