How do I do a jQuery load without a query string and arguments?
<p>I have a dumb network device that has limited HTTP hosting capabilities and I'm trying to write a slightly more dynamic page to display data with.  A some current process values can be found in plain-text at <code>/temp.dat</code> on the device, but my stone-simple jQuery script...</p>

<pre><code>$(document).ready(function() {
     $('#temp').load('/temp.dat');
   var refreshId = setInterval(function() {
      $('#temp').load('/temp.dat');
   }, 2000);
   $.ajaxSetup({ cache: false });
});
</code></pre>

<p>...seems to endlessly fail (only after the first <code>.load</code> on the initial page load) because the device abhors HTML query parameters.  Chrome's JS console shows endless errors like the following:</p>

<pre><code>GET http://192.168.1.250/temp.dat?_=1341980712854  
</code></pre>

<p>How can  I get jQuery (or pure JavaScript) to hammer away at a specific URL without attaching the HTML query (...<code>?_=123456789</code>)?</p>
