JQuery :: Render HTML Via XML Ajax?
Aug 9, 2010
i am wondering, what is the best way to render HTML on a page using an ajax request that gets the data as an XML file?
Say for example you wanted to load the comments on a particular news post, and wanted to pull this data in via ajax, and you server returns an xml with the commens in it, for example:
[Code]...
and then take that xml file and use it to render a list of comments, with profile pictures (worked out from the `profile_id`). I ask as i can do this easy enough by just making the server return the output as HTML, then placing it inside a container for the comments, but this is slower as the html output would be much bigger in size then the xml output.
I also need the ability to add a callback function so i can make a popup display if there is an error, or run a function that does something after the data is loaded. Ideal'y id like to load the html template which i would use along side the xml file, via ajax, but this isnt completely neceserry.

I am trying to find how to use custom tags in html and render data based on their use.
A good example is the joomla <jm:whatever> tag.
I found the following article: [url]
I think it might be outdated though because the behavior:url element does not seem to work. Plus, when I check the style sheet on a joomla site, it doesnt seem to use this method. I think these tags might be xml but I do not know how to render them based on the tag.
For example: <customAbbrv:display src="test.html" label="Test" />
I would want this tag to fire test.html and pass the attribute label which is set to Test.

is there a way, switch, option etc. to let jQuery create <br/> instead of <br>?
The following code will always create <br>:
$('<div class="partner-item-data-short"><strong>' + data.partner[x].name1 + '</strong><br />' +
(data.partner[x].zip.length ? data.partner[x].zip + ' ' + data.partner[x].city + '<br />' : '') +
'</div>'
).appendTo(pi);
Anyone got into this too? I would like to got valid xhtml 1.1 code :-)

I have a strange problem that occurs in IE 7 and 8 and does not occur in Firefox or Safari.I'm dynamically adding class to a table row on a checkbox selection. A row contains some input fields that get enabled or disabled. If a row is enabled, it gets highlighted using selectedrow class. If it gets disabled, the class is removed:

I've recently started playing around with jQuery and the jquery-tmpl plugin. I've been fairly impressed with how easy it has been to get my sample apps to call a web service and populate the returned data using a template on my page using something like...
var rendered = $.tmpl("myNamedTemplate", data);
$("#resultList").html(rendered);
What I'm currently having trouble understanding is how to get the html results of rendering a template into a string so I can use it with other APIs. I'm working with the Bing AJAX map control and various functions in it's API take HTML as a string parameter.
What I tried first...
var myHtmlTitle = $.tmpl("myTitleTemplate", data);
pin.SetTitle(myHtmlTitle);
That didn't quite work like I expected and resulted in an exception from the BING map control. I quickly figured out that what .tmpl was returning was not a formatted HTML string, so it makes sense that would fail.
I then tried appending .html to things and I got close...
var myHtmlTitle = $.tmpl("myTitleTemplate", data).html();
pin.SetTitle(myHtmlTitle);
This did in fact return an HTML string, but the problem is it was stripping off the top-level tag in my template. It's acting like it's returning innerHTML of the top-level tag.
Is there an easy way to simply render the template to a string so I can pass that into the APIs?.

I am loading a list of answers give by a specific user into a tab panel. To do this I'm using the following code: $('#questionBody').load('dashboard/questions'); All the html elements not from a loop such as a header image show up fine but the list of answers looks like it's displayed similar to when you use print_r() on an array. Is load() the proper function to use here?
here's an example of the output:
{"status":200,"data":{"questions":[],"params":{"page":false},"user_answers":{"13":{"flagged":"0","regdate":"1282869034","id":"13","qid":"9","body":"an answer of course...","payed":"1","question":{"id":"9","title":"test","body":"test","uid":"1586","permalink":"/question/view/9"},"status":"complete"},"11":

Is there a javascript or jQuery method available to force the browser to render the contents of the window? This would something similar to updating the "stage" in Director or Flash.I have a two-column interaction set up where users input information in one column and see their results in another. Safari, Firefox, etc all work perfectly. IE however needs an extra click anywhere on the browser window for the results to appear. So I'm looking for a way to attach a function to a UI control that 'forces' IE to render the screen so the changes appear.

We load some js from external source ( facebook, googlesyndication, etc...

I'm using jQuery AJAX to request html pages so no refreshes will be needed when someone clicks an menu item. But the things is, I'm currently requesting HTML pages with no doctype, head and body tags.. just only the content (with just h1 tags and tags like that). The problem is that when I inject that into an div on my main page the css doesn't get applied to the injected content. It does set the text color and makes H1 an heading but it doesn't apply specific things like h1:first-letter. So I'm assuming it only applies general css properties like the text format I applied to the body of the main page. So the question is how can I make the css apply to the AJAX requested and injected content? Should I include an css file to the file I'm requesting? Should I use some jQuery function to apply it after the injection? Or .. ?

I am looking for a javascript function that can log the following information for each pageview:
1. The total page rendering time (not php script execution time, but the time at which the entire page is rendered from the user's perspective - all images loaded, ads served etc)
2. The URL of the page
3. The browser used to access the page
4. The country the page was accessed from
The script should then store the information in a database via an AJAX call after it's been collected.
It sounds like a tall order, but it will help me get a picture of how fast or slow my site feels depending on where you live (e.g. how far you are from the server), what browser you're using, and which pages are the slowest to render (keep in mind this is not script execution time or query time, but literally the time at which the page starts to render, to when it finishes rendering).

I'm writing a blog. When a user clicks the make comment link under the comments section for a blog entry, a div pops up with the form that allows them to make a comment. I would like to use XMLHttpRequest to point to a php file that posts the comment, and then display the comment underneath the others that are already there...
This is my first real experience with Javascript in 8 or 9 years, and I've forgotten it almost entirely. I'm working off of tutorials that I'm finding here and there, and have already gotten the XMLHttpRequest to perform the posting of the comment, but I don't know how to write the comment to the end of the comments list without refreshing the page.. Code:

I have a nice javascript slideshow but it kills the rendering speed of my home page. According to Yahoo performance guru(s), javascript gets run before other stuff is rendered, so you fix that by putting the js code "at the end" of the html file.
Putting it at the end puts the slideshow at the bottom which is not the desired result. And even abs positioning is slave to the <div> structure.
How do I nullify the flow just for this one thing (I don't want to make the whole page absolute).

I have a JSON file with multiple containers that has built a webpage. I need to create a javascript from this file to render a page since it was written to use a js library (I think scriptaculous or doj). I want to use jQuery to do this -- at least that's what I'm told I can do. I understand that JSON is a data-exchange language like XML. Here's some code:
Code:
var nov_info= {
'categories':[
{N:'nwItem1',O:'Composition',V:School Supplies > Paper> Notebooks},
{N:'nwItem2,O:'Crayons',V:'Elementary > Art > Art Supplies'},
{N:'nwItem3',O:'Calculators',V:'High School > College Prep> Trigonometry'},
{N:'nwItem4',O:'Maps',V:'Middle School > US History > Civil War'}
],

I'm using $.ajax for an ajax request and I've setup a basic html form and if there are errors in the form when the user submits them my server side script is returning them in an array to the client with the errors.
If there are multiple values in the array, how do I display each error on its own line either using <li> tags or even just a <br/>? I'm injecting the ajax response into a div using .html() but how do I iterate the array within that div so I get one error message per line?
Do I need to construct the HTML on the client side after the ajax response has come back or should I do this on the server side before the data is even returned to the client? Right now I'm returning a raw array so that is why I'm asking the question about how to format things up and get the form errors into my div.

Here's the setup:
<a href="void();" onClick="jQuery('div#content').load('/cgi-bin/script.pl',{id:$id}); return false;">Link text</a>
Clicking this link works great. The data is loaded into the content div as expected. But the problem is the html that is loaded into the div has funny-looking characters where the single and double quotes should be. (See attachment).
What do I need to do in order to make the quotes show up properly?

So I have an odd round about fix that i'm using to get data from one server to another. First I have a classic asp file that does an http request to a different server (it's all on an intranet so I can't share the exact code) like this:
Set xml = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
xml.Open "GET", "https://www.externalurl.com/getData?value1=this&value2=that", False
xml.Send
Response.Write xml.responseText
Set xml = Nothing
This external URL returns an XML document that's written on the page. Pretty basic stuff.
Then I created another page with this jquery:

I'm trying to read an html file using the ajax() method, and then place content from that in certain places (e.g. 'info' in my 'InfoBox' section, 'details' in my 'DetailBox section). I'm very new to jQuery, and am pretty sure I'm screwing up the selector - it's the 'data' object used in the success callback (is that the right word?)

I have a URL (var spUrl) and I am trying to get the <title> of the page at that location. I am using $.ajax() to pull the page and process the <title> tag from the response $(data). For some reason, Opera is able pull the title from the <title> tag, but no other browsers are able to do so. When I modify the code to pull the <h2> tag instead of the <title> tag, it works in all browsers.
Here is an abbreviated version of the code:
$.ajax({
url: spUrl,
async: true,
success: function(data) {
var spUrlTitle = $(data).find('title').eq(0).text();[CODE]...

I have run into a bit of a problem. If I want to set the html of an element via an ajax call but the content page has a peculiar apostrophe, it's sort of curved, not like a ' but a ’ (slight difference there) . When I view it in my browser it looks ok but if I try to get it via ajax all the ’ chars end up being question marks in black diamonds. How can I avoid this?
Umm and also could anyone tell me the origin of the curved type apostrophe? I feel stupid asking but I really am at a loss for what it is, I can't seem to actually make the character on my keyboard. I am thinking it could be Mac specific but that is a total guess.

I'm using ajax like this (from the docs):
$.ajax({
url: 'ajax/test.php',
success: function(data) {
// do something with data
}
});
[Code]...
Does anyone have any idea how to get the html inside each #content or do I need to use a different approach altogether? What I basically want to do is to be able to print a lot of HTML in the file, and then in the "success" update different parts of the current page with parts from that HTML.
