Long loading times (or not even loading) with jQiery $.ajax on mobile Safari


I'm working on a web app completely made in JS (using jQery) and HTML.



I discovered a problem with $.ajax and / or $.get calls which do not load or take veeery long to load.




$.ajax({
dataType: 'jsonp',
jsonp: 'callBack',
url: 'http://mmsrv.local/character/userb',
success: function(ret)
{
$('.charName').text(ret.data.name);
$('.charLevel').text(ret.data.level);
$('.charExp').text(ret.data.exp);
}
});



This is my code to load jsonp. At first I thought it's a problem with unsupported jsonp. But even the following code does not work




$.get({
url: 'http://localhost/',
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
});



The 2nd snippet works perfectly on desktop browser, but not on Mobile Safari. The first one loads well in Desktop browser but goes into a "loading-loop" when visited on Mobile Safari.



Any ideas, why this happens? I saw some others with similiar problems, but it looks like they have other causes.
