couchapp - couchdb session and IE8 -

i writing couchapp, uses couch.jquery.js library.

when login site ie8, successful login (it returns ok, , login id), when query session, userctx.name of null (just if login didn't happen).

it seem explorer not keep cookie login. have info on this? have tried j chris's couchlogin.js library , written own login scripts same problem.

the session code is:

$.couch.session({     success: function(data) {         console.log(json.stringify(data));     } }); 

response ie:

{"ok":true,"userctx":{"name":null,"roles":[]},"info":{"authentication_db":"_users","authentication_handlers":["oauth","cookie","default"]}} 

response firefox / chrome:

{"ok":true,"userctx":{"name":"user1","roles":[]},"info":{"authentication_db":"_users","authentication_handlers":["oauth","cookie","default"],"authenticated":"cookie"}} 

i have solved editing jquery.couch.js, , adding cache:false ajax call in session function.

session: function(options) {   options = options || {};   $.ajax({     cache: false,  //disable caching ie     type: "get", url: this.urlprefix + "/_session",     beforesend: function(xhr) {         xhr.setrequestheader('accept', 'application/json');     },     complete: function(req) {       var resp = $.parsejson(req.responsetext);       if (req.status == 200) {         if (options.success) options.success(resp);       } else if (options.error) {         options.error(req.status, resp.error, resp.reason);       } else {         throw "an error occurred getting session info: " + resp.reason;       }     }   }); }
