Rails and JQuery and Ajax/Json question

Hi,

I am using JQuery in my rails app. I’ve taken the approach outlined
in Ryan B.'s Railscast on jquery to do the following:

jQuery.ajaxSetup({
‘beforeSend’ : function(xhr) {xhr.setRequestHeader(“Accept”,
“text/javascript”)}
});

to set my ajax call request Headers to text/javascript so that my
respond to block for javascript is invoked.

This works great up until I get to wanting to call jQuery.getJSON

It appears that my ajaxSetup call causes the getJSON call to send the
text/javascript header instead of application/json.

Now there are a number of ways I can work around this (using
jQuery.ajax, not using ajaxSetup …)

But I was wondering if there is a convention that folks have adopted
in cases like this?

Thanks!
Jay
