I am trying to populate two select boxes with over hundred option elements for each. I have succeded in doing so but with a little problem. I make two xmlhttp calls one after another. What happens is that if the first call doesn't make it before the second, the data in the first select box fails to load and the second box succesfully loads data. I am new to the Ajax world but i am sure i am not doing it right.
View 4 RepliesI'm just starting to try out "Ajax" web programming and I've got a question.
AJAX is fairly straightforward. Javascript creates an XMLHttp object and
then uses that to generate a hidden webpage with your results.
What I'd like to know is, how can I retrieve multiple values from an XMLHttp
request?For example, if my request generated an SQL query that returned a
Name, Address and PhoneNumber, could I get those values directly instead of
parsing them out of the ResponseText?
This is my current handler:
function showResult(pge) {
var url="getResult.asp?sid=" + Math.random() + "&q=" + pge
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject(stateChanged)
xmlHttp.open("GET", url , true)
xmlHttp.send(null)
}
function stateChanged() {
if (xmlHttp.readyState==4 || xmlHttp.readyState=="complete") {
//Complete, so show results.
document.getElementById("myResult").innerHTML=xmlHttp.responseText;
//How to get mulitple values here?
}
}
I am currently working on a function that will allow the user to search for an event by date and category. I've been using the w3schools exercise as an example but i wish to pass 2 pieces of data instead of one and am not sure how to do so. I'm sure similar posts have been raised before and i apologise if this type of question has already been answered but i could't find it in the forum index.
<FORM name="myForm">
<INPUT type="text" readonly name="MyDate2" value="Click for Calender" onClick="toggleCalendar('MyDate2')"size="15">
Select a Classification:
<select name="Classification2">

Even just point me in the direction of a good article or tutorial, i've been banging my head against it for 2 days so i'm very willing to take a few hours to go through a tutorial
I have a JSP page with several forms on it. Some of these forms are
generated dynamically, and each of them submits some information to a
database.
Handling one form is easy, as I can simply make the form post to
itself, and handle the
data using a single bean. Since I have multiple forms, I now have a
problem. Several of the forms on the page handle the same type of data
(same input names), and a 'setproperty *' call for each of the form
beans would change data in several beasn, not just the form/bean that
sent the data.
I am attempting to write a separate JSP with a single bean that
handles a form submission. However, I'm not sure how to make this page
go back to the referring page from which the data was submitted.
This might seem like a silly question..First issue. If i have a response and i'd like to update both text div and a status div how would i go about doing this. I've seen that jQuery has a few options such as OnSuccess etc?
Say that i post a comment and obviously you'd want to update some kinda statusbar on your website with the info that the message was posted successfully with ajax. (otherwise it might slip by the user unnoticed since ajax is kinda discrete)
Would it be a good way to for instance check the responseText if it contains anything and if it does you simply write a successmessage by grabbing a div from JS and if the responseText contains a custom error code lets say 1 you'll update the statusbar with a deny message?
Second thing. I've currently created an Ajax search on my site which activates whenever the user press or unleash the button. The issue is that if the user types fast enough it comes stuck showing the Loading.gif constantly. Could this be due so many requests opening and that i have a sleep on the server-side and if so how would you do it instead? I am using a serversleep of 1 second to have the Ajax pic appear consistently.

If you've caught a mouse event (say, onmousemove) and you're currently in the process of handling that event, is it possible for that, or another, mouse event handler to get hit again, at the same time that you're handling the previous event? Or is it guaranteed that no additional events will actually call any of your event handlers until your code returns from handling the prior event? That is, is it strictly sequential processing, or can they occur simultaneously?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a search function which works when I only want to have only one search per page, but as it involves a string call I'm not sure how to modify it to multiple search requests on a page.
The below works fine for one call:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showHint(str){
if (str.length==0){
[code]...
The above doesn't work and I am not sure what do about the showHint(str) as clearly I am not representing it properly in my attempt to modify the script.
append.php:
<span>test</span>
jQuery function:
$(function(){
[Code]....
The content will be added on the first click, but not on the subsequent clicks however. The hidden field gets incremented fine though.
I'm trying to in make in a single function, multiple calls to the same file changing one parameter the problem is thatit is taking it like if I wasn't changing the parameter and is sending only the last value all the times.Here is my code:
$(function(){
$('#btn_search').click(function(){
// what to search for

i have 4 images that expand onMouseOver and shrink onMouseOut
<script src = 'js/size.js'>
<div id = 'img1' onMouseOver = "expand(this.id)" onMouseOut = "shrink(this.id)">
<img src = ...>
</div>
<div id = 'img2' onMouseOver = "expand(this.id)" onMouseOut = "shrink(this.id)">
<img src = ...>
</div>
etc...
question: when i quickly move the mouse from one image to the other shouldn't i see one expand and one shrink simultaneously? i am currently seeing one shrink, then the other expand after. on occasion the shrink is skipped and the next image is expanded right away.
Basically, what I am trying to do is call several ajax requests using jQuery on the same page, i know that all browsers are capable of requesting multiple requests. However in Chrome and Safari my website works fine, but IE, Firefox and Opera all only call the first request then dont call, the second two. I dont know why though?
All of the code for the site is here: [URL]
I'm developing an asp.net MVC app, and decided to take advantage of JQuery's great datepicker using the following code in my master page:

My problem is that the alert block of code never fires. When I change it to occur before the datepicker code, the alert fires but the datepicker part won't work. What am I doing wrong here?
I have several ajax calls that originates from the same page its updating. It works perfectly in firefox but in IE it works for about 18 requests and then just stops until the page is refreshed. I thought it was a cashe issue but I have added a variable for that. I think it may have something to do with binding but I am not sure how to sort that. This is one of my functions.

I'm trying to make a little loop that in each itteration executes a little php script to send mail with the mail() function. the php script returns either succes or failure. Now its my intention to append that msg to a div, after every execution.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
data: dataString2,
url: "sendmail.php",
async: false,
success: function(result)
{
showStatus(result);
[Code]...
the show status(result) is nothing more then a .append(result) the zenMails(y) calls this function again to send the next mail. It does work though but it only updates the div after the entire loop is done, i 'ld think it ld do so after every execution since i call the showstatus when the synchronous call is done and only after that i call the next iteration. Is there anyway to work aroud this ? (making the call assync doesnt work , because the port for sending the mail would still be in use)
I want to send another ajax request when one request is in process to get the status of first request.
If I call both the request the second request gets blocked till the completion of the first request.
function addLoadEvent(func) {
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload == 'function') {
window.onload = function() {
oldonload();
func();
}
} else {
window.onload = func;
}}
addLoadEvent(myFunction1);
addLoadEvent(myFunction2);
addLoadEvent(myFunction3);
...etc...
My problem is that some of these myFunction#s include AJAX calls but
the calls depend on each other in such a way that myFunction2 will not
work unless myFunction1 has completed. So what is the "nicest" way to
make sure of this? I've considered putting a hidden element in the
HTML and then changing it at the end of each function call and have
the onchange event trigger the next function call. But this seems very
hacky and overcomplicated - surely there must be a simpler and better
way....?
I'm trying to build a page that has multiple ajax calls on it. When you do it the old-fashioned way with XmlHttpRequest, you'd create a new xhr object for every call so that they execute simultaneously. If I try to do this in jquery it will only execute a call when the previous one has completed. This makes the page load time completely unacceptable. How to improve the performance?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on a project that relies heavily on AJAX calls, they are done in dozens of places. There are a number of places where I would want to prevent the user from submitting information multiple times (form submissions etc ). I am trying to think of the best way to accomplish this.
I could simply disable the element that starts the AJAX call upon the first click and re-enable it upon completion of the call. I have also seen examples of developers using a class to handle ajax calls that store an identifier for the call and if it is in progress any new calls with the same identifier will be ignored.
I'm trying to do use XMLHTTP to do a POST in the following JavaScript snippet.
var xml = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP');
xml.open("POST", "http://some/url/", false);
xml.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xml.send("username=myusername&password=mypassword");
document.write(xml.responseText);
This works fine in Internet Explorer 6 SP2. However, I would like to use https, rather than http. When I change the URL to https and reload the page, I get an error: "The download of the specified resource has failed". As a test, I tried running the same code in Firefox (changing the first line to "var xml = new XMLHttpRequest()"), and this worked for both http and https perfectly, although using https causes a dialog box to pop up asking the user to accept the SSL certificate. Unfortunately, I really need this to work in IE.
I found a couple of discussions on Usenet about this, but none that seemed to give me a clear answer to this issue. Does anybody know what might be wrong or how I might fix it?
Just playing around with xmlhttp at the moment. I was just wondering if
there is any reason (browser compatibility etc) the response data has to
be formatted in xml, or can I send csv or whatever else if the handler
is up for it?
I've been looking into the possibility of using XMLHTTP for my
enterprise application but I still have a question.
When you send the request to the server, how does the server know how
to handle the request? (i.e. how do I specify what method to call in my
java servlet?)
I'd appreciate any help on this.....I've only got a vaey basic
knowledge of javascript and I am fluent in java.
anyone have a code example of using xmlhttp with mozilla, if i use the
following code, the function is never called, but it does work in IE.
xmlhttp.
{
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4)
{
var response = xmlhttp.responseText;
divResponse.innerHTML += "<p>" + response + "</p>";
}
}

View 2 Replies View RelatedUsing XMLHTTP and DOM I'm able to load new HTML page content.
I'd now like to load small snippets of javascript with the HTML markup
and have that <script> incorporated into the page. If any of the loaded
script exists outside a function definition (eg: a call to a function),
I'd like that code to be executed as soon as its added to the DOM.
Can anyone suggest the best way to do this? I've Googled but not found
anything comprehensive. Do I need to use the eval() method or is there
a better way?
It's a security setting "Access Data Sources across domains" you've
got lowered security for whatever zone you accessed the page in.
There is a problem with XMLHttpRequest and Firefox when the
function that makes the asynchrounous request is called from another window. The URL
of the window does not change to the next page in which i am displaying
the response.
wat does getAllResponseHeader() function do?
