I am trying to send the ID provided when the ajax-call is called to the error message but when I do it this way, the error message gets displayed even if no error message is returned through ajax (likepost_XML.php):
function like(commentid){
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'likepost_XML.php',
data: {
comment_id: escape(commentid)
},
success: successlike,
error: errormsga(commentid)
});
}
And this is the Error function:
function errormsga(commentid)
{
console.log(":didn't work bro");
$("#"+commentid).css({"color":"red"});
}
You are calling errormsga instead of setting an error callback function. Wrap the call in a function expression.
error: function(){
errormsga(commentid);
}

The selectize dropdown I have on the page gets populated from an AJAX call via the following. What's not working is I need to run some additional code right after the callback() method invocation, but it never continues into the rest of the callback. For instance, the following in the success callback doesn't run the additional code identified:
var $ddl = $("#ContactID");
var control = $ddl[0].selectize;
control.load(function () {
$.ajax({
url: "validURL",
type: "post",
dataType: "json",
data: {
id: recordID
},
error: function () {
alert("Error retrieving data");
callback();
},
success: function (result) {
callback(result.data);
//Does not get called below
loadAdditionalInformation(recordID);
}
});
});
However, if I do this, it works:
success: function (result) {
window.setTimeout(function() {
callback(result.data);
}, 0);
loadAdditionalInformation(recordID);
}
I need to call a method at the point the list is loaded, so I am not sure I want to continue with that, so why is the success callback aborting after the callback() method call.
load expects two parameters, query and callback.
$('#ContactID').selectize({
....
load : function (query, callback) {
$.ajax({
....
success : function(res) {
callback(res.data);
doOtherThings(res);
}
});
}
});
Your code does not pass any of those parameters, so it is very likely that when success() is called, the callback() function is undefined.
I suggest put breakpoint and inspect it.
I'm trying to load JSON with a JS function, and then make the JSON objects that are loaded available to other functions in the same namespace. I've tried using return to serve up the array of objects retrieved, but that doesn't work. In the attached example, I've assigned the array of objects to a property in the namespaced object, but when I try to get that array of objects outside the main loadData function, all I get is null.
Here's my JS:
var myObj = {
jsonEndPoint: '/test/test.json',
dataObjects: null
}
myObj.loadData = function () {
$.ajax({
url: 'test.json',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
myObj.dataObjects = data.apiResults[0].league.season.draft.rounds[0].picks;
//console.log(myObj.dataObjects);
},
error: function (xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
console.log('Data Load Error: ' + textStatus);
}
});
}()
myObj.displayData = function() {
console.log(myObj.dataObjects)
}()
The full example can be seen here: http://zbl.me/test/index.html
The JSON file I'm loading is here: http://zbl.me/test/test.json
That is because JavaScript is asynchronous in nature — when you attempt to access the myObj.dataObjects in the myObj.displayData function, that object does not yet exist because the AJAX call has not been completed yet.
What you could do is that ensure that all functions that require newly added data from the AJAX call be run only when a .done() promise has been delivered from your AJAX call, by using $.when(). The logic is quite straightforward:
myObj.loadData() is now exclusively used to make the AJAX call. With regards to how we handle the done and fail events (which are previously .success() and .error() callbacks), we delegate that logic to the next function.
myObj.displayData() is now use to evaluate the promise returned by your AJAX call made with myObj.loadData(). You use $.when() to fetch the promise, and then simply chain .done() to deal with a successful call and .fail() to deal with the opposite :)
Here's your improved code:
var myObj = {
jsonEndPoint: '/test/test.json',
dataObjects: null
}
myObj.loadData = function () {
// We return the AJAX object so that we can evaluate the state later
// This is very simple :)
return $.ajax({
url: 'test.json',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json'
});
}()
myObj.displayData = function() {
// Instead of using the deprecated .success() and .error()
// ... we use .done() and .fail()
$.when(myObj.loadData).done(function(data) {
myObj.dataObjects = data.apiResults[0].league.season.draft.rounds[0].picks;
}).fail(function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
console.log('Data Load Error: ' + textStatus);
});
}()
If you are unsure, you can check the dummy code here: http://jsfiddle.net/teddyrised/5rbd2eqq/1/ I have used the built-in JSON response from JSfiddle to generate an artificial response, but the logic is exactly the same as yours.
Your displayData method is called even before the ajax is completed. So you either need to call displayData in the success callback of ajax or change the structure a bit so that its easy to call.
Why don't you instead do something like this
var myObj = {
jsonEndPoint: '/test/test.json',
dataObjects: null,
displayData: function() {
console.log(this.dataObjects);
},
loadData: function() {
$.ajax({
context: this,
url: 'test.json',
type: 'GET',
dataType: 'json',
success: function(data) {
this.dataObjects = data.apiResults[0].league.season.draft.rounds[0].picks;
console.log(myObj.dataObjects);
this.displayData();
},
error: function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
console.log('Data Load Error: ' + textStatus);
}
});
}
};
myObj.loadData();
Here is a demo
I am currently developping a new website
When I am trying to create an account, I get an error like this :
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'hasError' of null.
And this is the code
function submitFunction()
{
$('#create_account_error').html('').hide();
//send the ajax request to the server
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: baseUri,
async: true,
cache: false,
dataType : "json",
data: {
controller: 'authentication',
SubmitCreate: 1,
ajax: true,
email_create: $('#email_create').val(),
back: $('input[name=back]').val(),
token: token
},
success: function(jsonData)
{
if (jsonData.hasError())
{
var errors = '';
for(error in jsonData.errors)
//IE6 bug fix
if(error != 'indexOf')
errors += '<li>'+jsonData.errors[error]+'</li>';
$('#create_account_error').html('<ol>'+errors+'</ol>').show();
}
else
{
// adding a div to display a transition
$('#center_column').html('<div id="noSlide">'+$('#center_column').html()+'</div>');
$('#noSlide').fadeOut('slow', function(){
$('#noSlide').html(jsonData.page);
// update the state (when this file is called from AJAX you still need to update the state)
bindStateInputAndUpdate();
$(this).fadeIn('slow', function(){
document.location = '#account-creation';
});
});
}
},
error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown)
{
alert("TECHNICAL ERROR: unable to load form.\n\nDetails:\nError thrown: " + XMLHttpRequest + "\n" + 'Text status: ' + textStatus);
}
});
}
It seems to be the jsonData, on the function, which is not working as well. Any idea or suggestions?
The success handler will be passed the data returned from the ajax request.
It will not have a function called hasError() because it is just a json object it will not have any functions.
The error handler should be fired if there is an http error i.e. if the ajax call returns an http 500.
I'm not familiar with prestashop, but looking over the prestashop documentation hasError is returned as a bool (not a function), so instead try (without the parenthesis).
if (jsonData.hasError)
You may also want to check if any data is returned first.
if (jsonData)
I am trying to POST some data to my ASP.Net MVC Web API controller and trying to get it back in the response. I have the following script for the post:
$('#recordUser').click(function () {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'api/RecordUser',
data: $("#recordUserForm").serialize(),
dataType: 'json',
success: function (useremail) {
console.log(useremail);
},
error: function (xhr, status, err) {
},
complete: function (xhr, status) {
if (status === 'error' || !xhr.responseText) {
alert("Error");
}
else {
var data = xhr.responseText;
alert(data);
//...
}
}
});
});
The problem with this script is that whenever I try to post the data, the jQuery comes back in "error" instead of "success".
I have made sure that there is no problem with my controller. I can get into my api method in debug mode whenever the request is made and can see that it is getting the data from the POST request and is returning it back. This controller is quite simple:
public class RecordUserController : ApiController
{
public RecordUserEmailDTO Post(RecordUserEmailDTO userEmail)
{
return userEmail;
}
}
I am not sure how I can get jQuery to print out any useful error messages. Currently when I try to debug the jQuery code using Chrome console it shows an empty xhr.responseText, nothing in "err" object and "status" set to "error" which as you see is not quite helpful.
One more thing that I have tried is to run the following code directly from the console:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'api/RecordUser',
data: {"Email":"email#address.com"},
dataType: 'json',
success: function (useremail) {
console.log(useremail);
},
error: function (xhr, status, err) {
console.log(xhr);
console.log(err);
console.log(status);
alert(err.Message);
},
complete: function (xhr, status) {
if (status === 'error' || !xhr.responseText) {
alert("Error");
}
else {
var data = xhr.responseText;
alert(data);
}
}
});
i.e. using the same script without actually clicking on the button and submitting the form. Surprisingly, this comes back with the right response and I can see my data printed out in console. For me this atleast means that my Web API controller is working fine but leaves me with no clue as to why it is not working on clicking the button or submitting the form and goes into "error" instead of "success".
I have failed to find any errors in my approach and would be glad if someone could help me in getting a response back when the form is posted.
As suggested by Alnitak, I was using complete callback along with success and error ones. Removing complete from my code fixed the issue.
Thanks to Alnitak.
This is related to my previous question. The answer there seemed to solve the problem.
But I am literally doing the exact same thing from another route, and now I get an error. The application passes over the ajax function twice. The first time, I get a TypeError. If I reload the page, then the function executes correctly.
I know in the docs, it mentions having to create and object that is defined. Could somebody point me to an example of how extended controller needs to be created in order to execute a function when it is called.
I get an error: TypeError: this.init is undefined
Here is my route:
App.RegisterPickRoute = Em.Route.extend({
redirect: function() {
var registerTestController=this.controllerFor('registerTest')
var isRegistered=registerTestController.registerContacts();
if(!isRegistered)
this.transitionTo('registerTest');
else
alert('holla')
}
});
Here is my function in my controller:
registerContacts: function(){
var isRegistered=false;
var self=this
self.contactsToAdd=self.get('contactList').filterProperty('isSelected', true);
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
cache: false,
url: contextPath + 'user/regTest',
data:{contactList:self.contactsToAdd},
success: function(data) {
isRegistered=true;
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
isRegistered=false;
},
async: false
});
return isRegistered
}
I have a syntax error. The value passed to the data attribute of the ajax call needs to be self.contactsToAdd.toArray()
