Here is an example of my code:
function blah()
{
var xmlHttp = (window.XMLHttpRequest) ? new XMLHttpRequest() : new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if (xmlHttp.status == 200 && xmlHttp.readyState == 4)
alert(xmlHttp.responseText);
}
xmlHttp.open("GET", "ajax.php?_=" + new Date().getTime(), true);
xmlHttp.send();
}
It seems to work find in Chrome but IE8 throws an "Unsepcified Error" on the if status = 200 and readyState = 4 line.
Oddly, though, the alert does give the response from the php page.
Any ideas why this might be happening?
Maybe checking status if readyState != 4 causes the error in IE?
Try
if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4 && xmlHttp.status == 200)

Hi I have this code that for some reasons I don't understand just refuse to work. I really don't know what I will do anymore.
This is my code:
<script>
function findMatch() {
if(window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
}else {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHttp');
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if(xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
document.getElementById('results').innerHtml = xmlHttp.responseText;
}else {
console.log('not ready yet');
}
}
xmlhttp.open('GET','aindex.php',true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
<form>
Enter a name<br>
<input type="text" id="search" name="keyword"
onkeydown="findMatch();">
</form>
<div id="results"></div>
//THE PHP FILE TO OUTPUT
<?php
echo 'Did it work';
?>
It prints not ready in the console indicating that the readystate and status test failed. I am working with xamp.
Please pals, any help will be highly appreciative.
Thank.
You're not sending the search keyword to the PHP script.
var keyword = document.getElementById("search").value;
xmlhttp.open("GET", "aindex.php?keyword=" + encodeURIComponent(keyword)", true);
xmlhttp.send();
There's also little point in reporting an error when xmlhttp.state is not 4, other states are normal as intermediate steps. If you want to report an error, do it when xmlhttp.status is not 200.
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4) {
if (xmlhttp.status == 200) {
document.getElementById('results').innerHtml = xmlHttp.responseText;
} else {
console.log("Bad status: " + xmlhttp.status);
}
}
var xmlHTTP = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHTTP.open('GET','http://example.com/',true);
xmlHTTP.send();
I just keep getting XHR failed loading: GET, can anyone help???
Thanks
If the server your contacting doesn't have CORS set in the header (e.g. access-control-allow-origin: *), you will not be able to make the request. If you don't have access to the server to set a CORS header, you'll need to contact the server from a server you do control and then pass that to the browser (either with a CORS header or not if it's served from the same domain)
But your code works fine. The problem is with your http://example.com/ not returning
http://jsbin.com/zuhobidako/edit?html,js,console,output
var xmlHTTP = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHTTP.open('GET','https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com',true);
xmlHTTP.send();
xmlHTTP.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
document.body.innerHTML =
this.responseText;
}
};
For server status errors, add this to onreadystatechange
if( this.status > 299 && this.readyState == 4) {
console.log('Server Error: ' + xmlHTTP.statusText);
}
For xmlHTTP code errors...
xmlHTTP.onerror = function() {
console.log('xmlHTTP Error', xmlHTTP.responseText)
}
I'm trying to retrieve a file using XMLHttpRequest with Javascript. I'm having some problems getting the data of the sample file.
Here is the simple code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4 && xmlHttp.status == 200)
alert(xmlHttp.responseText);
}
xmlHttp.open("GET", "http://humanstxt.org/humans.txt", true);
xmlHttp.send(null);
</script>
With the above code I don't get any alerts. If I remove && xmlHttp.status == 200 then I get an empty alert, (I don't know why the server isn't giving the 200 status code). I tried different URLs but they all give out the same results.
Any thoughts on this?
After function() it is not working, i don't know why. If I put an alert before that statement it's working but after that statement it isn't working.
<script>
function new_order() {
var xmlhttp;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
alert("asdasd");
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
document.getElementById("order_id").innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
xmlhttp.open("POST", "item_sort.php?sort=" + str, true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
3 things you can check
If an element corresponding to id order_id exists on the page
if the str is not null or not defined
If you are using older IE versions IE5 or 6 you need to add the
following in your code.
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
Also you need to use the following way if you want to do POST ajax call.
xmlhttp.open("POST", "item_sort.php", true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.send("sort=" + str);
What is the issue in below script.Here alert "33here" is coming but am not getting my json object.alert(jsontext) is coming blank.if i hit this URL in browser then i am getting JSON object.
xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.overrideMimeType("application/json");
alert('11here');
xmlHttp.open( "GET", "http://<hostname>/appsuite/api/login", true );
alert('22here');
alert(xmlHttp);
xmlHttp.send();
alert('33here');
var jsontext= xmlHttp.responseText;
alert(jsontext);
Tried as per suggestions but not working.I am new in javascript / ajax.Any issue in this ?
xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.overrideMimeType("application/json");
alert('Hi 11here');
xmlHttp.open( "GET", "http://<hostname>/appsuite/api/login", true );
alert('Hi 22here');
alert(xmlHttp);
xmlHttp.send();
alert('Hi 33here');
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4 && xmlHttp.status == 200) {
alert(xmlHttp.responseText);
}
}
Ajax runs asynchronously. You can't depend on when the request from .open will complete or even if it will complete. Any code that depends on the value of an ajax request must be done in the request callback.
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4 && xmlHttp.status == 200) {
alert(xmlHttp.responseText);
}
}
A good place to start is looking at the examples provided by MDN: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/AJAX/Getting_Started
function alertContents(httpRequest) {
try {
if (httpRequest.readyState === 4) {
if (httpRequest.status === 200) {
alert(httpRequest.responseText);
} else {
alert('There was a problem with the request.');
}
}
}
catch( e ) {
alert('Caught Exception: ' + e.description);
}
}
After the request status reached 200 and the ready state is 4 the response is filled.
