Fixed - IE 10/11 will add 'undefined' body for HTTP DELETE #67

Closed XiaoningLiu closed 7 years ago

Fixes an issue where would call XMLHttpRequest.send(undefined), causing an issue in Internet Explorer 10 and 11. In these browsers, XMLHttpRequest.send(undefined) will cause a request body of "undefined" to be sent by the browser (e.g. on a DELETE). This causes the XMLHttpRequest to assume a request body of type text/plain (as Content-Type), which confuses some server software (Such as Azure Storage Server Authorization Error).

There also are same IE issues for other projects, including angular.js.
