The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Passport, version 2.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
The GetLoginChallenge method does not pass back the AuthHeader in JavaScript.
CAUSE
=====
JavaScript can only pass in string variables by value, not by reference. This
means that an Out parameter cannot be set by a function.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem, make sure that your function passes back a variant
array with both the URL and the AuthHeader. Use the AuthURL API to get the login
URL.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products that are
listed at the beginning of this article.
