I'm trying to call a view using the CouchDB Javascript API.  The $db.view c=
all is failing with a "405 Method Not Allowed" error.  $db.view is generati=
ng the correct URL, but the call appears to be failing because the view fun=
ction is using HTTP OPTIONS method ( or maybe JQuery).  If I change the HTT=
P method to GET & manually send the HTTP request, then it works fine.  I ne=
ed $db.view to generate a GET.  Any thoughts?

Thanks

Chris
