Error message in browser console: Uncaught DOMException: Failed to execute 'send' on VM41 cache-fm.js:618 'XMLHttpRequest': Failed to load ''https://appportal.omo.nl/private/fm/volatile.html': Synchronous XHR in page dismissal.

Setting and/or getting cookies in onbeforeunload/onunload handlers defined by the web-application.
Important: This workaround will work until later versions of Chrome and Edge Browser are released. You can refer to the release notes for these browsers to determine when functionality is removed. Use an iRule to allow sync requests from onbeforeunload, onunload, and other page dismissal events. This is intended to inject into responses from the BIG-IP virtual server header, Origin-Trial, using a token obtained from the Google Chrome developer console. This token allows for use of synchronous requests in page dismissal events. It should work for Chrome and Microsoft Edge browsers where such sync requests are disabled now. To obtain the token you need to use the following iRule with your virtual server: 1. Go to the Chrome Origin Trials page: https://developers.chrome.com/origintrials/#/trials/active. 2. Click the 'REGISTER' button to the right of 'Allow Sync XHR In Page Dismissal'. 3. Enter the origin of your virtual server and other information: https://domain_of_your_virtual_server. 4. Click REGISTER. By doing this, you obtain a token to use in place of the token provided in the following iRule.
