MVC3 to MVC4 upgrade issue - firefox

I've updated my MVC3 site to use MVC4 today and have come across a problem. When navigating to a particular url (the url for an MVC area) I get this messaage in Firefox
The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
This used to work with MVC4. Chrome still does work with MVC4.
Any ideas?

Blazor Hub Does not Connect Across Entire MVC App

I upgraded an ASP.NET Core 2.2 MVC project to 3.0 in order to use a Blazor component in one of the views of the application. After setting up Blazor in the MVC project and running it, the Blazor hub connects just fine as shown in the browser console screenshot below:
but when I navigate to the page that contains the blazor component or another page besides the index page for that matter, I get this:
As shown in the screenshot, it includes the name of the controller the url that negotiates for a websocket connection and throws a 404. If this is not a bug, how can I fix this to work on every view of the application or the view that contains my component to say the least?
What I needed to do was to set the app base path in shared.chtml and Boom! Problem Solved.

Contact Form 7 unable to submit by AJAX so redirects to 404

I am working on a build for a new website which includes the Wordpress plugin Contact Form 7 to handle the submission of the form & (is supposed) to display a response via AJAX.
I simply cannot get the AJAX side of this to work. Upon submission the form works fine, but the page reloads and displays the 404 page... not cool!
Following the FAQ page I have run a number of tests. I can confirm:
The page is correctly referencing wp_head and wp_footer.
The page has no JavaScript errors in the console.
Whilst the page has one or two validation errors (created by another plugin), I don't believe this to be the issue. I have attempted to test this by stripping out everything except the form (and the header & footer).
I have deactivated each plug-in for conflicts & the problem persists.
I have flushed the permalinks (by re-saving via settings > permalinks) & tested.
I have created new form instances & tested.
Reinstalled the Contact Form 7 plug-in & tested.
After all that I'm still no closer to a solution. Can anyone shed any light on this issue as I'm very keen to avoid using an alternative plugin.
I can provide more details if needed. Thanks!
I tried clicking on the URL you provided for your website and it did not work.
I would check to ensure there are no conflicts with the jQuery as this could be the cause of the form not submitting with AJAX.

JSF 2.0 with Primefaces 4.0 BPM/IE Ajax rendring issue

I am using JSF2.0 with Primefaces4.0 for now i had Ajax's rendering trouble on each application i developed with using this technology.
The problem is, when Deploy my application on actual server (not localhost), IBM Process Server v8.5. Any of the component is not rendering itself against any event (only in IE) with Google chrome and Mozilla Firefox it works fine.
This problem is still unresolved for now. If any one experienced that, please share
For quick recovery and use Ajax in my application i am thinking to shift on RichFaces. any one experience on RichFaces and Ajax's behavior on IE?

How to get Orbeon Forms embedded into an ASP.Net MVC3 app?

Background
I'm investigating the use of Orbeon Forms to integrate into our
ASP.NET MVC3 web app by building a simple MVC3 app to figure stuff
out.
I have a Win2008 R2 std server running Tomcat 7 and Orbeon 3.9.1 PE
trial on our HyperV server. This is working and I can create forms and
then use the forms to submit data.
I've created an empty MVC3 app on my local dev machine. It has an
Index action on the Home controller that returns a page that has a
bunch of links to the add new URLs of some of my forms on the Orbeon
installation. The links access an Add action on the Home controller
which uses a WebRequest object with the ?orebeon-embeddable=true
querystring parameter tagged on the end to get the definition of the
Orbeon submit form page. I replace the relative URLs in what I get
back to make them absolute. I then insert that into a basic view and
display it.
Problems
HOWEVER! As soon as I do interact with the Orbeon form in anyway, e.g. click inside a single line textbox field (IE9) I get a JS error
in the script file "orbeon-[random guid style value].js" line 121 with
the line "AjaxServer.exceptionWhenTalkingToServer(e,formID)"
highlighted with the error being "formID is undefined".
I'm not sure where to start looking here as I am unfamiliar with
Tomcat and only know what I can decipher from the Orbeon docs.
Anybody tried to embed the form runner like this and experience this
error?
What I tried next
[Update]: The MVC Json() method got me thinking that perhaps the
Orbeon test site I set up on the VM did not like the fact it was
getting AJAX requests from the MVC app on my dev machine. With this in
mind I tried installing the CORS filter into the Orbeon app from
dzhuvinov.com. According to the docs after adding the relevant
config to the web.xml file the default behaviour is to pretty
unrestrictive, i.e. it should let everything through. Unfortunately
after restrating Tomcat this didn't help.
[Update 2]: Okay seems like the CORS docs are a bit out of date and
the defaults are seemingly the opposite so setting the initial values
for that seems to sort that out somewhat - although IE9 still gets the
JS error message. Meanwhile in FireFox 12 things are going better but
now the issue is how to pass the JSESSIONID cookie Orbeon sends me
back when I embed the runner in the MVC view such that when you
trigger any of the AJAX on the Orbeon form it sends the JSESSIONID
cookie as well.
Well I guess my title and info were slightly misleading so I may as well close my own question with the follow "answer".
In order to embed in an MVC3 app (read as any non-Java backend I would imagine) Orbeon Forms Runner and have it work I had to do the following:
Configure the CORS filter for my install of Orbeon Forms on Tomcat 7 (Dzhuvinov.com) to allow cross-domain AJAX.
In HTML partial's returned from Orbeon make relative URLs beginning /orbeon/xforms-server/ absolute calls to a custom proxy. Store the JSESSIONID in the ASP.NET MVC Session object.
Write controller actions for the proxy to handle requests. This simple proxy forward requests on to the Orbeon Forms install after setting the JSESSIONID cookie with the value stored in (2).
