title: iPad ajax problems
body: <p>Long story short: I had to create a chat functionality which seems to work on all devices except the iPad (and possibly the iPhone). Our customer uses their iPads to chat and so I have tried to solve the problems for past 7-ish months.</p>
  
  <p>That's how long it took for me to somewhat pinpoint the problem.</p>
  
  <p>The problem is clearly in the iPad's browser. I run JSON Ajax requests using the library jQuery. The requests are fine, they do not contain errors. At some point, the iPad just doesn't run Ajax requests at all. I dont know why, I cant find why. Every Ajax request is logged, but at some point the server doesn't get any requests. I have asked a zillion times and the customer is positive they are only touching the ipad to prevent it from being locked.</p>
  
  <p>I have reduced the rate of requests to approximately 15 requests per minute, but that didn't work.</p>
  
  <p>So, my question is: <strong>Is there any information known to man why the ipad abruptly stops sending Ajax requests after 10-15 minutes?</strong></p>
