title: XHR request is denoted as being cancelled although it seems to be successful
body: <p>This is not really an issue, because the code works, <strong>but</strong> I am just curious as to why it happens.</p>
  
  <p>I have the following jQuery code for an ajax post:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$.post('./add_fee_row/&lt;?php echo $date; ?&gt;',post, function(data){ ... });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It all works fine and dandy.  </p>
  
  <p>However in the Chrome Console it says: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/EJiXI.png" alt="what is going on here?"></p>
  
  <p>Why does it say cancelled?  </p>
  
  <p>Everything happened as if the post was successful. Why does it say that?</p>
  
  <p>(the php server code is available if needed)</p>
  
  <p><em>I am using Google Chrome version: 17.0.942.0</em></p>
