JQuery :: Limit Returned Data From Ajax Call?
Jul 12, 2011I'm using Ajax to load some HTML data from an external file. How could you limit the word count to 20 words?

View 1 RepliesI am currently using $.ajax to post to a Perl file that queries a webservice and returns XML. Running the Perl via command line confirms that XML is being returned with Content-Type: application/xml. However, regardless if I set the dataType parameter to "xml", "XML" or just use jQuery's intelligent guess, it appears that I am not getting any data returned to my function at all.
I've tried using the full $.ajax notation and the simplified $.get notation as follows:
and:
I have also tried using JQuery to perform a "GET" directly to the webservice which returns XML by default and still I get no data returned to my function.
Although I doubt it's browser-related, I have confirmed this in both Chrome (5.0.375) and Firefox (3.6.3).
I call a query, get success, but don't know how to get the data out. Here is the code..
[Code]...
An object is returned, but I can't the data out of it.
I'm having a little problem with a jQuery/JS script I just wrote in IE7/8. The problem is the first 2 lines of the returned data are not being displayed (w or wo styling) but only in IE. The strange thing is though if I alert the returned data it's there.
The code can be found at [url]
I am creating a page that loads new content via ajax, but i need to execute a javascript function based on the content. ex
<div id='content'>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function newFunction(){

I have a problem with returning html data from an ajax request. I have php method which is called via ajax and returns a long html string which consists of multiple tables, each table represents one question in a questionnaire. They display fine. I then have a button which calls a second php method that returns one individual table - identical in structure to the multiple tables that were returned previously. However,when displayed,the new table has the an inline style "display:block;" and so it screws up the way it looks. I have, at no point, declared this additional style anywhere in my code. Even if I do add an inline style of "display:table;" to the returned html, it is overwritten in the output html - so it is clearly being done by javascript.

Here is a simple example which I think contains everything you need to know. If I have 10 elements on a page, say 10 divs, and I want to hide the odd ones, I would just use $("div:odd").hide() and wrap it into the document.ready function. The page loads, the divs are hidden, awesome. However, let's say that after the ten divs, there is a link which triggers an AJAX request and the return data is basically another 10 divs which get pasted under the ones already on the page.
What I would like to happen is that the script I wrote a paragraph ago kicks in and hides the odd divs automatically. Now it makes sense that this does not happen, since it seems logical that when the page loads, the script parses the divs and hides stuff, so after I get the AJAX results it won't do it again. What IS weird to me is that the functions I defined don't work either, so if I define
$("div").click(function() {SOMETHING HERE})
It will work for the first set of elements, but not for the ones which are returned by the AJAX call.
I'm experiencing a weird problem when trying to do a $.ajax call. When I pass 5 variables, with either GET or POST, the script runs as I would like. However, when I use 6 or more variables, the script does not run. Does anyone know why this is?
Relevant code (stops1-5 are defined as JS variables earlier in my script, and the alerts are for testing)
$(".barcrawl-stop-id").each(function(){
alert("running ajax function");
$.ajax({
url: "/handlers/ajax/barcrawl_reorder.php",
[Code]....
So, the way it is now, it works fine (I get the first alert for each instance of .barcrawl-stop-id, and get an alert at the end with the returned data). However, when I add another variable to the data, like stop4: stop4, the script does not run (all I see is one alert with "running ajax function").
$.ajax({
So I'm loading the div#my_events by prepend(data) where "data" is another well styled div. Is there anyway to animate this returned data. Unfortunately I can't just specify a unique ID on the incoming data. So I was wondering how else I might be able to address this data I'm returning.
It is basically a topic list, with a modal that sends jquery to add a topic to the database, and returns the topic from the database, hides the modal, and displays the last added topic at the top of the topic list. Now I'd like it to do something slightly fancy like animate the color of the background to bring the user's attention to it.
Getting information from a php file. Basically :
MY JAVASCRIPT FILE:
In this dumb example, I'm unable to match the 'data' returned variable with the value I assigned to it in php (I can't manage to enter my 'do stuff'), yet its value is 'ok' if I display it. I have no problem to retrieve html code from php and inject it in my pages, but I can't test it as a regular javascript string.
What's wrong in this ? What have I missed about the 'data' format ? Do I have to 'cast' data to a javascript string (and if so, how ?)
I have a problem I have in my controller a function which poperly returns the value (i've checked by var_dump). When I try to access this data from $.ajax it returns nothing...
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm currently working on a form where an entire HTML page is returned via the .ajax method. I would like to display only the content of the div with the id "content" (of the page returned) in the div with the id "result" (in the calling page). Here is my current script :

I seem to be experiencing a character length cut-off with XMLHTTPRequest. I suspect this because the ActiveX .XMLHTTP works just fine for supporting IE. The data supposed to be recieved is a database outputting in an HTML table format. Any gecko based browser cuts off at about 4200 characters Code:
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am doing a few tests with javascript and oop. but one failed so i falled back to the way i usually do this but it still isnt working properly. i am using $.post() but instead of returning whatever is echoed in the php file like it does with all my other scripts it returns the content of the file:
Isnt returned in var data but the whole file is returned as a string.
I am trying to replace the names of each link in my html page with $f1 (Page) and replace some content with $f2 (Description).
How would I insert the data from this php file into my html page?
output.php:
mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");
$query="SELECT * FROM Pages";
$result=mysql_query($query);

JQuery seems to be giving an error when trying to pass an alphanumeric parameter like so:
[Code]...
when the above method is called, the error callback is called. However when I change the eventID parameter to a purely numeric value, it works fine and the success callback is called. I would like to pass an alphanumeric value to a server method and this doesnt seem to work.
The server i'm trying to post data to in an ajax call expects data in xml format, including a particular attribute value. I have to use Chrome browser which does not support the XML Class (e4x).
I tried to marshal my data as follows:
But the ajax call does not appear to transfer the xml data to the server even though the xmlhttprequest call appears ok in Chrome's developer tool console.
I'm wondering whether I'm forming the xml formatted data correctly.
I am trying to figure out how to pass the html back from an ajax call
Let me give a couple snippets
jquery call:
I have a web service that returns an array.
Code is below: Data variable comes back as blank. I was wonder is that because the method returns an object or am I doing something wrong on my end.
$.ajax({
I am using an webservice(.net) to do some database related operations. I would like to call a method from this webservice to return an xml file. At the client side I want to use jquery to call this webservice by passing json object. How will I do this? In success method is it possible to get the xml file as returned value from the webservice?

I already have codes working:
Here the variable name may have "me&you" or "me you" like that.... so how do i encode it so that it reaches properly?
Here is the code I am running:
The url is a very straightforward servlet that queries a database and returns either Y or N. That part is working fine. The first alert shows Y or N just as it is supposed to.
However, the second alert is always showing Turbo, as though the if statement is not able to compare properly. This is probably javascript rather than specific to jQuery, but can anyone see where I'm going wrong?
I have a form which goes to my insert page which inserts the data into the table. Except I didn't want to do a redirect to another page so I thought I would do an Ajax call. Both pages work until I change it to an ajax call.
I am pretty certain that it is because I took out the <form action="insert.php"> because otherwise the page would redirect but if that is the case I don't know my way around it and if it isn't the problem I'm not sure what is.
But here is my code:

Here is what I'm trying to do. I will pass a directory to a PHP script, that script will then return an array of filenames back to the javascript that called it. In the javascript I want to take the filenames returned and create links to them in an unordered list.
The PHP code to get the filenames is done and when I run the script I get an array that I have formatted into json... an example of the encoded array is as follows...
{"filename:["file01.jpg","file02.jpg","file03.jpg","file04.jpg","file05.jpg","file06.jpg"]};
So here is the jquery I'm trying to use to get the filenames and create my links... But I must be missing something because my variable... data ... is empty... but status is Success.
[Code]...
i will try to explain my problem in a little example: I have a php script that creates a simple calendar something like that.
[Code]..
When I use the ajax function to grab the remote content of some page, I would like to then apply jQuery selectors to that data. Does anyone know how this can be done? Let's say that I just grabbed the content from an html page. I would then like to be able to use a standard: $("#someID").val() to get the content of that page element.
