How can I get response header using AJAX

Question

I'm trying to get response header using AJAX, but it doesn't work. Apparently I did't do it right:

$.ajax({ type: 'GET', url:'http://www.somesite.com/', data: formData, success: function(data, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest){ alert(XMLHttpRequest.getResponseHeader('some_header')); } error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) { alert(XMLHttpRequest.getResponseHeader('some_header')); } });

I also try this one:

$.ajax({ type: "GET", url: 'http://www.somesite.com/', complete: function(xhr) { alert(xhr.getAllResponseHeaders()); } });

Any help?

What is the error message you get? What happens?

You are missing a comma.

success: function(data, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest){ alert(XMLHttpRequest.getResponseHeader('some_header')); }, // <-------------

I added comma, but still doesn't work. Console: Uncaught ReferenceError: formData is not defined.

I'm not psychic, I have no idea what formData is. Do you declare it? What is its value?
