I am trying to read an XML file from a web source to display on my site. I can't get it to work ..GET seems to come up with an error - I tried crossDomain: true with no luck and have tried on a local and web server.
The code I am using is...
$(document).ready(function(){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://js.monster.com/query.ashx?cy=au&jcat=3975.11885&pp=20&tm=60d",
[Code]....
I want to write a script that will read a .php file on a remote
server and print to the current page a portion of the text contained in
the remote file. I am just wondering what the best method is for
reading from a file in this case - the file is only a few bytes long.
I've seen a tutorial or two that only tangentially addresses my
problem, and even then each one has varied greatly as to which object
they utilize.
Any ideas to get me started?
What I want to do is access a remote web page via DOM and read some of the data by loading it into an IFrame. However I get an access denied message. Apparently you cannot have read access to an IFrame if it contains a foriegn domain.
Originaly my plan was to manipulate the information via DOM from an Iframe so if thats not an option, is there a way to store a web page in a text var and read it via the DOM that way?
Or perhaps another way? What do you guys think is the best way to accomplish this?
I've managed to read from a local database using only javascript and the DAO
ActiveX object, but I can't make it work with a remote database. When I
change the connection string from "C:..." to "http://..." it doesn't work
any more. Any suggestion?
The boss wants to distribute a mini-site to partners but still maintain control of the site on our end. The initial thought was to just send them a Flash app but I'm not sure if that will be the most practical. Here's what I would like to be able to do. I don't know if it's even possible.
In this proof-of-concept model the mini site has three pages that all link to each other. Pages also include images and a form. The partner's site would have a bit a javascript on the page to set a unique ID parameter and then load our mini site.
I imagine this JS site importer would wind up spitting out a bunch of document.write() stuff to basically write our site into the page of the partner's site.
Am I even making sense?
The desired effect is to allow the partner's site to display our content within their shell. AND for us to be able to change the content at will. AND to be ble to shut off the partner's feed (via that unique ID parameter) if we need to.
I'm not asking for a complete pre-written solution (although it wouldn't be rejected!) Just for a shove in the right direction.
I'm trying to read another site which is on ssl. It has data that changes daily. I do not own the other site. I don't have curl or ssl support with my providor. Is there any way I can do it with Javascript or PHP?

A div with several urls should animate another div.

I am trying to use asp for remote validation instead of php. But it did not work. This is whatI tried.
$(document).ready(function() { var validator = $("#Member_Form").validate({
rules: { Member_Name: {
required: true,
minlength: 2,
remote: "users.asp"
}, },
messages: { Member_Name: {
required: "Enter a username",
minlength: jQuery.format("Enter at least {0} characters"),
remote: jQuery.format("{0} is already in use")
}, }});
Also how is the member name passed to the asp page. I tried reading it as query string. But it did not work.
Basically i want to grab some data from the royal mail(UK) site, to use within a CMS, so the sales team can easily find the tracking info about a customers order.
Royal mail have recently allowed get requests which populates the track and trace form field and auto submits the page via a 302 redirect e.g.
royalmail.com/portal/rm/track?trackNumber=x
With X being the tracking number. Try: [URL]
(the links above should have www and http etc on but sitepoint won't allow to post them like this because of the spam filters)
So what i would like to do, if it is possible, is to use jquery to grab that page and possible grab a certain paragraph (in this case the first p of the class "track-right-box") so that the sales team don't have to go to the site every time they want to trace the order.
Now a figured i could use $.load or $.get in jquery to do this but firebug is throwing up the error: Access to restricted URI denied" code: "1012
Which i'm guessing is something to do with the security setting on firefox.
How much data can be cached in the browser? My records seem to be about 70 characters from roughly 7 columns in my database.

I have 3 tabs that call an external ASP page that has a rather intensive Database query and takes a while to execute and display. On my tab there's a link to another page. once that page is finished the user goes back to the tab. But my problem is it's going back to the database page (that takes a while to execute).Can the original page be cached and remembered so that I dont have to keep calling my database page?

All I really want is to show a warning if the remote check returns false.
I want to use jquery or js code to do the following work:

I'm using jQuery $.ajax or $.getJSON on document.ready to access data from the server through coldfusion remote cfc files.
My url looks something like this for the main page [url]
When i go to a new page i.e. [url]
The ajax functions are called but are not collecting new data (only in IE). IE caches the response and wont give me a new one unless I refresh the page, which I don't want to do.
Here's an example of a function I call. I've also tried $.getJSON with no success.
function getGrains() {
I've looked into ways to make sure IE wont cache files. Some of the popular suggestions are:
Add a random parameter to the url: I've done this:
Change get requests to posts: Done (see function)
Also, jQuery's cache:false doesn't work.
I'm not sure I can use the meta tags or header cache-control functions because it's not caching my html page, it just caches these HTTPRequests from within my javascript file, and they're not loading html, just json objects.
i have one task in which i have to update the information on DIV on one of the webpage which will run on another system which can be any client system. is it possible to update the information of the web page in real time so that if some client is watching the other web page at that time, he will see the latest content.
i dont want to create server side scripting and logic for this as this is very small content. anyone with some idea about this?

Currently I was able to load remote JSON (php) file using JSONP protocol. However, how to do if my remote file is static? In the doc, it said: you can load JSON data located on another domain if you specify a JSONP callback, which can be done like so: "myurl?callback=?". But since my remote file is a static text file, how can I specify the callback in the output dynamically? In fact, I also wonder if it is possible to control the random callback name by modifying jquery source code...

I'm trying to load a remote URL (or rather just test to see if a remote page exists).
This works just fine:
But swap in a remote URL and I get nothing:
I don't actually need to load the remote URL, just determine if it's accessible (using it to test whether a user is connected to intranet or not). But I can't even seem to get to that.
I've started working with the jQuery UI 1.8 Autcomplete recently with remote data. I was pleased with the ease of initial implementation, but before long I ran into a classic race condition.As I type, the search query gets more specific, so it takes less time for the server respond. As a consequence, it is possible for the old response to arrive after the most recent one. Obviously, this is producing undesirable effects.I'm a little frustrated that the plugin doesn't have a way to manage this. To me, it seems that it makes the "basic" remote data implementation unreliable in most real-world situations. It also seems as though this would be a common problem, but I've found very little literature on it.
I've found that autocomplete is a relatively new addtion to jQuery UI, so I've put the frustration aside and started my own widget which extends autocomplete to solve for three things: 1) race conditions; 2) animated open/close; 3) caching.The nature of this post is two-fold. Not only to share information I've gathered on the topic of race conditions with others who might be having the same trouble, but to (hopefully) gain some insight to how other people are solving for this.The first piece of this puzzle was that $.ajax() (and related methods) return an XMLHTTPRequest instance. As described at stackoverflow.com, this grants us the ability to use XMLHTTPRequest.abort() method. So I just keep a handle to the XMLHTTPRequest instance, and if it exists, call abort() before the next request is made.Using a firebug, I could see that the requests were being aborted as expected and the symptoms of the race-condition ceased. So far, so good... then I got to IE. Not so much.In IE, I was seeing run-time errors. The odd thing is that the run-time errors seemed to be coming from deep within jQuery UI, rather than my code yet commenting out the abort() avoided the run-times. After scratching my head for a while, I used the following simplified code to shed some light on the situation:[code]
In Firefox and Chrome, behavior is as expected - no alert box. However, in IE6 and IE8 (IE7 untested at this time), the success handler still fires! As it turns out, the run-time errors were because the response was undefined as it got passed through my success code path. My next thought was, "maybe I can just evaluate textStatus". Unfortunately, it turns out (as seen in the alert box) it contains the string "success".
I created a page a set of tabs, each tab loads an external page. The problem is that when I click on each tab, the external page contains script jquery and will not run.How I can do to upload the script to each page there is external?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm brand new to jQuery, and I am really interested in learning about it because of the potential it offers to enhance my webpages. To give you some background, I am self-taught in PHP and MySQL...not on a master's level, but I have designed and built database-driven sites with success and am confident that I can learn jQuery if only I could get pointed in the right direction. I have perused tutorials, links, forums and recently bought the jQuery Cookbook (I needed SOMETHING to go on and it was one of the few jQuery books at the local bookstore that felt as though it would be of help). My problem is, I am finding gaps in information that, to me, are critical to learning. I am looking for a nut-and-bolt approach, 'Do this, then do that' not the typical generalizations I keep encountering.
All I want to do to start with is to remotely validate a two-item form, you guessed it, username and email, against the contents of my database (the info for the validation plugins is just as vague and general). That's it. But the tutorials and examples are vague to me, and in one instance, a link was posted offering to display the server-side validation code used and the link was dead. I can't be the only person here who is stonewalled by these thoughtful, yet overly-general tutorials and books. if any of you have suggestions where I can find a concise, true step-by-step tutorial or book, I would love to know. Right now, it's just one frustrating day of research after another.
