异步发布请求和表单发布之间的区别

Question

I made a website in django 1.7.

First I tried sending asynchronous post request with the help of jquery -

$.post('http://mywebsite.com/info',{params: params})
        .done(function(data)
        {
            if(data.data != 'OK')
                alert('Something Went Wrong');
            else
            {
                alert('OK');

            }
        })

It worked fine on desktop but did not worked at all in my mobile.

I thought may be it was due to speed of net connection.

Then I tried posting HTML form and reloading the page-

<form id="list-form" method="post" class="hide">
        {% csrf_token %}
        <my params >
    </form>

And it worked fine on both desktop and mobile.

So what is the difference in doing the above two methods. I guessed that asynchronous post request must be faster than posting a form and also reloading the page but it failed in mobiles.

Any suggestions are welcome.

And if there is anything else that I can do to avoid reloading the page.

Thanks in advance.

The only difference that "async post request" is AJAX-request, so it has additional header "X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest".

But in normal situation it should not lead to troubles you experienced.
