XMLHttpRequest: Script Works To Request XML File On Server But Not On External Server
Oct 2, 2010
I have the following JavaScript (see below). The script requests an XML file from the server and displays it on the page.
The script works fine when the requested XML file is stored on the same server as the script.
The problem is when I try requesting an XML file from an external server such as the National Weather Service. I get an error. If I take the XML file from the National Weather Service and save it to my server it works. Why can't I use my script to request XML files stored on external servers?
Javascript Code
window.onload = initAll;
var xhr = false;
function initAll() {
document.getElementById("makeTextRequest").onclick = getNewFile;
I've got jQuery and 2 plugin libraries running on my website. One runs the navigation and the other runs a dropdown search box. Everything works great on my localhost, but when I copied the directory to the external server none of the jQuery worked. I'm not getting any Errors in my error log, and the directory has been copied exactly. [URL]
well i'm kind of new to this website and scripting with javascript but i am wondering: in a client side .js file i have some coding which results in a string which is stored in a variable called exportData
now i want that string to be written into a text file on a server but how do i do that? it is not local on the client's pc and i can't find how to do it anywhere..
I am creating an XML document on my page with javascript. My question is, is it possible to save that xml file on the server (I have write permissions) only using javascript, ie no server code? This task would be trivial using server code, but I was wondering if I can do it all with client code and post backs? Well, any input?
I am running the scripts below which should return a string containing a URL. So far, it cannot find the form contents in Firefox, but displays the non-dynamic data such as ?Location=. It won't work at all in IE.

I am trying to read data from server using AJAX XMLHttpRequest.responseText.In received data, there are lot of similar type of characters which has tge value of FFFFFD (65533). I think, all characters which has the value above 127 are converted to default character.
How to kill/abort the request (ie currently processing) to Applicatin server ,like clicking the "submit new thread" button of IE and i want to stop posting .The main thing is that it has to kill the entire process .
The only way i can think of doing such a thing is having an active server page that returns an image, that is generated on the fly. As long as there is no caching on the client this in theory will allow the client to perform an action on the server and display an image generated on the fly as a result of this action without actually reloading the page, simply by requesting an image.
I am developing a site which will require a single google maps display. Until the site is ready to launch, it won't be at its domain name address but under a development IP address at my hosting company. The code for the map is:
[Code]....
Despite hours of effort, I cannot get past the following error message: The Google Maps API server rejected your request. This could be because the API key used on this site was registered for a different website. The only two reasons I can think off for this are either that the development IP address is an issue as it is not a domain name or that I have already used my google account login for a different site but have tried setting up a different account with an alternative email address. That, or I am missing something very simple!
I have written an Ajax application which can send http HEAD requests and receive the header response from server.
Now I want to show the different values in formatted manner. However, there seems be no character or expression which I can use to split the HEAD response for string processing.
Here is a sample of server response:
Mime-Version: 1.0 Date: Thu, 08 Feb 2007 03:51:13 GMT Server: Apache/ 2.0.1a Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 69 Connection: close
If you have any information regarding this please do let me know.
I am using jquery to send an ajax request from my facebook app which is in iframe to my server. The ajax request works fine when the web app is running stand alone and out of facebook platform, but within facebook, the result that I get from my ajax request is blank !!! Here is the code I use:
I spent the best part of yesterday trying to get my form to be sent to the server however for the life of me I cannot figure out the problem. I haven't used prototype before but here is my code that I think should work perfectly fine,The php script works perfectly, i've entered test data into it and it makes a connection to the third party server using curl and then requests information that I get back i.e. the routing id comes back. But I cannot test the data using the form as the request isn't working for some reason.
I have a basic js that is used to change some images when the user clicks on a link. it worked fine on my server (IIS 4), but when I upload it and the images to another IIS server the images don't display most of the time. I know this is client side -- so why is the server making a difference??
I'm trying to write a script that will be loaded from one server into a website on another server. This script is trying to talk (ajax) to the server that it comes from but I'm getting "Access Denied" errors. I'm well aware that cross-domain calls are not allowed for security reasons so my question is how does Google Analytics work because essentially thats what I'm trying to accomplish. I can embed a Google Analytics script into my website and it'll gather data and send it back to Google.
I would like to open an html file locally (not fetch it from a server) and somehow use javascript to fetch the relative resources from the server. One solution would be to convert all of the relative links to absolute links. I can convert the html source file anyway I wish, but ideally I would like to modify the html source as little as possible, for example insert a function that modifies the result of the src attribute. How would I go about this? Is there any trick I can use to define where the relative home is? Am I going to get into any scripting security gotchas?
I am using a jQuery script to create charts called Highslide. I posted for help on their forum but they are a little slow, and this issue is really regarding a javascript error, I believe.
This issue happensoccasionallyin Internet Explorer 8, where the chart wont appear at all and throws an error. If you refresh the page again, it will display the chart fine. Ive been through this code and can not find what the problem is. what is odd, is if i put the code up on another server it works the first time.
I must make clear that I am not a javascript programmer; I am simply trying to get this script to work on my website. It functions perfectly locally (with all browsers), but after uploading to my website, it shows the controls at the top, but not the content.
Below is the code for the FreeMind Flash Browser which can be found here: [URL]
It requires 2 additional files, flashobject.js and visorFreemind.swf plus the FreeMind file (*.mm) that stores the content. The FreeMind file that has the content displays perfectly on localhost, but not on the website. I have all of these files in the same directory and have double checked everything, but it still doesn't function on my website. I have other flash files and scripts on the same website in other pages that function perfectly.

I have created a site with menu, it is working fine locally but when i upload it on the server it dosen't work. When I click on submenu under "Company" or "Products",It will show the actual url in the address bar but it gives a error "405 - resource not allowed". Kindly check and let me know the solution for this. If you know any other simple script similar to this let me know.
This one has plagued me for some time now. I am parsing an XML file for a search feature. On my local machine, the code below works fine in FF, but when I upload it, I get an error stating y[0] (the root element) is undefined. I think the problem may be with my onload method but I can't be sure.
function importXML()
I just can't figure out why this works locally and not on the server. IE works fine, but then again it uses the activeXObject method so it should function differently.
Following this jQuery slideshow tutorial (Usecase 3 sample, about 2/3 down the page, this is the one without thumbnails): [url]
I constructed the slideshow:[url]
...which works perfectly in browser view locally (FF and IE). When uploaded to the server, however, I've got a static list of photos as you can see. Can someone shed some light on what the problem is? All relevant files are attached (I changed the images to simple colors to get the file size within the attachment limit).
