I'm trying to send data to my server using xmlhttp POST. The data being
sent is actually an HTML page that is built with javascript in the
browser. The HTML code contains a small javascript function in the
<HEAD> section. I applied encodeURIComponent to the data prior to
sending it but anything between the <script> </script> tags does not
get sent. The tramsmitted data is cought by a Perl script on the
server, it handles the input as normal FORM data and writes the html
data sent to a file (with the javascript function missing). Maybe I
need to do something different related to encoding the chars for an
HTML comment (?) ...
All Ajax libraries I've read use encodeURIComponent() on the name-value pairs extracted from forms before POST ing the result to the server with and xmlhttprequest. I can understand why this encoding is required in the case of a GET request and the form data is attached as a URI query string; however, why is the encoding necessary for POST requests?
I'm having a weird problem, not sure if I'm overlooking something or leaving something out. I'm trying to send values of a form to through AJAX to a php script then return a value. It works fine, except the author field is always blank. I've created a simplified version and it still works weird.
This is the javascript used to get the values and send them, when they come back the alert message shows Name as blank. I've looked in the PHP file to see if I made a mistake but I don't see anything.
function postComment() { var author = document.getElementById("author").value; var email = document.getElementById("email").value; var comment = document.getElementById("comment").value; var url = "includes/testComment.php"; request.open("POST", url, true); request.onreadystatechange = showResult; request.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); request.send("author="+escape(author)+"&email="+escape(email)+"&comment="+escape(comment));}
function showResult() { if(request.readyState == 4) { var message = request.responseText; alert(message); } }
I have a very simple javascript codes with a following lines inside: ............................ var str = ""; .. . . . . . . . . . str = String(new Date()); // #1 str += fobj.elements[i].name + "=" + fobj.elements[i].value + "&"; // #2 str += fobj.elements[i].name + "=" + encodeURIComponent(fobj.elements[i].value) + "&"; // #3 str = 'Test' // #4 ............................
1) If I commented out the line #3 everything works OK. 2) If I leave this line in my script, lines #1 and #2 have no problems, but the line #3 failed (without any trace) and I never reach the line #4.
It seems the global function "encodeURIComponent()" is missing (by the way, the global functions "String()" and "Date()" are not missing and they returns a correct value). How I can fix this problem?
Do you know a dynamic way to send 10kb of text or more using an iframe?
I tried to do that with by creating, in javascript, a dynamic iframe, then create a form into this iframe and put the data in a textarea and then call a sumbit(). Code:
I have writing a plugin, and have a question.about data in {} like css({}), ajax({}).what is the data type when using {}? what will they become that using in {} when they are send? are they become an array or an object?
I am doing xmlhttp ajax stuff. I am using a script called "SEXYALERTBOX". I am using it to allow the user to input a password. The textbox is called BoxPromptInput. I do not think its inside a <form> tag.
Here is the code: function askForPass() { Sexy.prompt('Please type the password in order to see the pictures/videos','' ,{ onComplete: function(returnvalue) { if(returnvalue) {
var xmlhttp = false; var pageResponse = null; try{xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");} catch (error){try {xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");} catch (error) {xmlhttp = false;}} .....
Any way to pass the value since I am sure the request.form would not work in this case since its not in a form.
I have several functions in a .js file that collect various types of information from the visitor, let's just say they are strings, and want to send that information to my database. I have no problem putting the information in my database once I get everything into PHP (I'm relatively new to JS).
Am I able to make a form in the .js file and automatically submit it once all the functions finish? I also need the page not to refresh when sending this information so I'm assuming some AJAX will need to be involved. I was able to send a basic form using some jQuery I found and have the page not refresh but can't figure out how to do the same in a .js file.
<script type="text/javascript"> // wait for the DOM to be loaded $(document).ready(function() { // bind 'myForm' and provide a simple callback function $('#myForm').ajaxForm(function() { }); }); </script>
I am trying to send the login info from a form into a IIS server and the asp file on the server will just respond back with the following text "Welcome, &name" on a ajax form on the client side. Currently, i am using a GET response and would like to send using JSON instead.

I have a problem with sending data from a form to a php script with AJAX. To test if it works, I try to send data from the form, print it in the php with "echo", and then put it back in the initial html file.
My Javascript code is:
The function stateChanged, basically says:
The problem is that the response is empty, but I don't know why. I have checked the input data and the postData variable says "firstName="+input (e.g. "firstName=Robert"), so that's not the error.
I know how to send data from a form via action/method but I'm clueless as to how to send php variables from a form using jquery AJAX and get a callback echoing the response
I'm looking at the visual jquery AJAX, but I don't know how to config the form to send the properties to the php script by clicking the submit button
Code:
Also what would I need in the php code to return a call back?
is there a way of sending data inputted into a form inside a chunk, to an ASP form on a completely external page (i.e on a different, unrelated site)?This is the code I have for the form chunk:
I have a html form which produces 3 post varaibles.
I'd link to be able to call a php file when sumbitted that sends the data from my form and returns the results from my php file to a div on the oringal page.
I know that you can use .load to call a page to be diaplayed within a div $('#container').load('url #div_on_page') but dont know how to send the from data.
I'm having a weird problem using ajax. I use ajax to create a input field inside a form.
like this:
Before Ajax script
Code:
After Ajax script
Code:
The Ajax script works perfectly. the problem occurs when I try to send the form with the new field. The form doesn't send the field data to test.php. And more weird is that it works on IE, only on FF the problem occurs. Nothing shows in the Errors Console, and I have the last Firefox version.
i have a little problem with one aplicattion, the problem is i have one function for saving data from a http page but i dont know how send the data from the .js to my .py
I have a form that calls a perl script. A few javascript routines in the form do a few things prior to submitting. For some reason, however, the perl script is being called twice (the perl script sends out an email, and submitting the form once results in two identical emails.)
Here are excerpts from the script that I believe to be relevant (I can post more if this isn't enough, but it's long and I'm trying to keep it brief.) Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I've read about how you need to return true after calling the javascript via a button click, but I've done this kind of thing in other places and it's worked fine. I've also tried inserting a return statement here in the function and it doesn't seem to make a difference. Strange. (BTW, I changed the domain name in the URL out of courtesy to my client, just FYI.) Code:
I am using triple ajax dropdwon in my php file.In my form i have species_scientifc_name & on select I am sending its id to a php file for retriving data for second dependent dropdown box, Here I need to get this id in form action file.
As you can see I send the variable level=A to php on next page. What I would like is send another variable for the TOP item: OKP How should I do that ?
