Ajax :: Cannot Call User Defined JS Function After Return The Content?
Dec 6, 2010
I am having a problem of calling the user defined JS function after I make the AJAX call. Basically, I created couple radio buttons on the main html page. When the user clicks on one of the radio button, it will trigger the AJAX call and return another html file in the "div" content that I set in the main html page. The other html file contains a user defined JS function (e.g. "updateContent()") which use the onclick event handler to call the function. When I'm running the app, and click on the button. I had seen the firebug was complaining the "updateContent() is not defined" error. The function itself works fine and must be defined properly.
Here is the code in the main.html page:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var asyncRequest;
function getTools(url){
try

I have a good understanding of javascript although I am new to working xml. So I am having a problem getting javascript to recognize that my parameter value in my function call is an attribute in my xml. I called the js function like this:
var category; function ebookCategory(category) { if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); [Code]..
The Firefox 3.6.12 displays only: =========== Start =========== 10_ShowClassesAndTypes Starting 10_ShowClassesAndTypestesting dw =========== End ============
The "dw" function writes nothing. Suggestion on how to get "shorthand document.write" function working. In the meantime I'm going to see if I can get Protype to provide a shorthand function.
I'm currently using the dialog functionality (modal form) from UI library to submit data to the database. All the validation checks have been running ok until one of the validation checks requires a ajax call to check if a username exist in the database. I'm fairly new to both javascript and jquery so this could be a fairly basic blunder. Initially, i thought it was an synchronicity problem, but I changed the $.ajax async option to true but still no joy, so maybe it something to do with scope etc?
I need to return a string of JS from my php file. In my ajax.php file these are the last lines ($js is a string of js generated dynamically, it works as its calling a function I'm using at the load of the page): $js = getData($day,$the_vote);
I'm trying to "progressively enhance" one of my surveys using javascript. Basically, I have rating scales that make use of radio buttons as each point on the scale. Each radio button occupies its own cell in a table. I wrote some functions that will highlight cells on mouseover in a color corresponding to its position on the scale (e.g. the lowest point is red, the midpoint is yellow, the highest point is green). When a radio button is clicked, the background of the button's cell and preceding cells in the same row will be colored accordingly. The functions are working well in FireFox and Chrome (I just have to add a few lines using the addEvent function to make it compatible with IE).
The effect looks a lot nicer when I add a function that makes the visibility of the radio buttons hidden.
However, I want to make sure that there is a fallback option in case the functions that color the cells don't work for whatever reason. I would not want the radio buttons hidden in this case.
Is there a method whereby I can call the "hideRadiobuttons" function only if the other functions are successfully executed?
Strange behaviour: User enters text into textarea - text includes URL with protocol e.g. [URL]. JSON call fails with 403 forbidden. It seems the the serialised content is being interpreted as a cross domain call (my guess). Any other text works - Even if the user enters "http://www.u", but as soon as the input qualifies as a url, I get a 403.
The code extract: var formText = $("#contributioncontrol").serialize(); $.getJSON('[URL]',formText, function(response) { if (response.ERROR != true) { var output = response.HTML; $(output).hide().prependTo("#results").fadeIn("slow");} }
If the user enters http://www.url.com in the textarea on the form then The request looks like this: [URL]. The '/' chars in the line above are replaced by% 3 A % 2 F % 2 F (without spaces - Don't know how to stop browser interpreting the encoded stuff).
And the response like this: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>403 Forbidden</title> </head><body> <h1>Forbidden</h1> <p>You don't have permission to access /API/createcontribution.php on this server.</p> <p>Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.</p> <hr> <address>Apache mod_fcgid/2.3.5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at www.mysite.com Port 80</address> </body></html>
I need to call a javascript function when the user closes the browser window. I have tried onunload but that runs when the user clicks a new link as well. I need something that only runs when the browser window is closed.
I thought that the value of startDate would end up as the defaultDate param for datepicker. No luck. Only an obscure little message in firebug console: "missing: before statement"
I'm not too good with programming, but I'm trying to get my feet wet with some nice little AJAX tools. I have some things currently working, but I'm trying to re-write the code so I can reuse these modules for a number of functions....As of now, I have a function that returns XHR requests [ ajaxRequest(){} ]. I am calling this function inside an XML Parser called [ ajaxParser(){} ]. Once that's created, I have the following code:
Code:
xmlDoc = new ajaxRequest() xmlDoc.onreadystatechange = function(){ if (xmlDoc.readyState == 4){ if (xmlDoc.status == 200){[code]....
At this point, I want the function to return an object that holds all the XML Node names, lengths, textContent, etc. I would like to be able to call this in any other function I write and begin traversing the nodes there. Something like root = new ajaxParser(file.xml);I tried "return parentMenuList;" except the length return is undefined. What I see in the DOM inspector is an object called root (with no other properties to it).
is there any way, using javascript, to call a function when someone presses back or forward in their browser? I'm using AJAX and have a partial solution. It works but would be more efficient if this is possible.
Dynamically loaded content (via JQuery's get method, for instance) seems unable to connect to a stylesheet that resides on the main page. I understand this is due to the fact that the dynamic content is not part of the DOM.
I've been racking my brain for a couple hours now and doing a lot of searching and I cannot seem to find an answer. I want to know if it is possible to return the xmlhttp.responseText value from an AJAX function to the function that originally called the AJAX function.
Code: //Set handler for server response. xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
[Code]....
I want to return the my_response variable to the original caller. No matter what I try I have been unsuccessful. I even tried assigning it to the global window variable using window.my_response = xmlhttp.responseText but it ends up being undefined.
Every example I've seen of using AJAX pretty much does something inside of the if (xmlhttp.status == 200) part to update the web page. I really do not want to do that.
I am attempting to use the return value from a nested ajax function as the value for a variable in its parent. However, despite being able to successfully assign the variable within the nested function, it reverts back to its original value after the child function has terminated. Below is the code:
