Chrome/Opera (any OS) creates SPDY protocol errors on depth chart

[mattheworres]

This is OS independent (I've seen it on both Windows and OSX) and is on the latest version of Chrome. I can confirm it is not an issue with any plugins I have installed either, because a clean copy of Chrome produces the same issue.

The browser won't send the XHR requests to update the depth chart when a player is dragged to a new depth chart position. The request has a status of (failed), and the console gets an error message: PUT https://www.phpdraft.com/api/draft/59/pick/5026/depth_chart/37 net::ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR

This issue has been observed to also occur with the latest version of Opera, but not Firefox or Safari.

So, my shared webhosting may be the culprit here. Looks like they have both SPDY and HTTP/2 protocols enabled on the server. SPDY is experimental and was deprecated once HTTP/2 came out, and in Chrome 51 they disabled support of it.

Webhost refuses to disable SPDY because they don't wish to disrupt their other customers, so I may be looking for alternate hosting (including Openshift).

Working on moving the site over to DigitalOcean this weekend in order to resolve this issue (should speed up the app 6x or more), but I will go ahead and close this issue.
