I am generating a excel file by using the Ajax call to my Action in my controller class in my ASP.net MVC application.Its working fine but the problem occures some time when my file is in downloading stage and the ajax call delete it.If there is any way without SetTimeout then please tell me.
Generate Excel File
$.ajax({
url: "#Url.Action("GenerateReport", "ClientAdmin")",
type: "POST",
data: { reportStart: reportStart, reportEnd: reportEnd},
dataType: "json",
traditional: true,
success: function (downloadUrl) {
//Download excel file
window.location = "/ClientAdmin/Download?file=" + downloadUrl;
//Delete excel file
$.ajax({
url: "#Url.Action("DeleteReportFile", "ClientAdmin")",
type: "POST",
data: { file: downloadUrl },
dataType: "json",
success: function (downloadUrl) {
},
error: function () {
AlertShow("Error!", "Oops! An error occured");
}
})
},
error: function () {
AlertShow("Error!", "Oops! An error occured");
}
})
I think you need jQuery "when".
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.when/
$.when( $.ajax( "test.aspx" ) ).then(function( data, textStatus, jqXHR ) {
alert( jqXHR.status ); // Alerts 200
});
this is to force something to be synchronous.
(One can find the credited answer here)
EDIT
as I am not sure how to test your case I might suggest another solution.
Try handling "file downloaded" event somehow and then trigger the delete function.
Here is a possible useful answer and blog.

The task is to get the value of some field from k2 with an ajax request. I Googled that it seems like a simple task and is solved by referring to the desired method in the controller
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'index.php?option=com_k2&task=photo',
dataType: 'json',
success: function (json) {
console.log('success '+json);
},
error: function (jqXHR, text, error) {
console.log('error '+text+' '+error);
}
});
in folder components/com_k2/controllers/item.php
i create function - public function photo(){return 1;} http://joxi.ru/a2XxYpJFwxvRV2
when trying to get my "1" :) I get "File Not Found" as soon as I did not try to access the k2 controller, everything is without success.
My app is an MVC .NET 4.0 application.
My application is fairly straightforward. I open an text file and uploaded it to be processed and returned as an excel file. This works as expected.
The excel file is returned via an actionresult controller. There are no errors. It works the way I want it to.
The problem is that when I call ajaxStart with blockUI it works. However, upon returning the file, the ajaxStop or ajaxSuccess is never fired to turn off the spinner after the file result is displayed with a message - do you want to open the file or save it or cancel.
I'm using jquery fileupload, blockUI and jquery 1.9.1.
$('#fileupload').fileupload({
dataType: 'json',
type: 'POST',
url: fileuploadpath,
autoUpload: true,
beforeSend: function () {
$.blockUI({
timeout: 0,
message: '<h1><img src="../images/ajax-loader.gif" /> Processing...</h1>'
});
},
complete: function() {
//$.unblockUI();
},
done: function (e, data) {
//$('.file_name').html(data.result.message.Name);
//$('.file_type').html(data.result.message.Type);
//$('.file_size').html(data.result.message.Length);
$('.file_msg').html(data.result.message.Error);
},
success: function (data) {
$.unblockUI();
$('.file_msg').html(data.result.message.Error);
}
});
and here is the basics of the file return in the action controller:
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName);
return File(fileoutput, "application/vnd.ms-excel");
Everything works just great. The area I'm scratching over my head is - why isn't the spinner being turned off after the file return? Am I missing something? I've tried binding ajaxStop and ajaxStart to the document but that does not work. ajaxStart gets fired but upon the file return, ajaxStop is being ignored.
Remove the 'done' and 'complete' event and use this format for your ajax call:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#fileupload').fileupload({
dataType: 'json',
type: 'POST',
url: fileuploadpath,
autoUpload: true,
timeout:60000,
beforeSend: function () {
$('#loader').show()
},
success: function (data) {
$('#loader').hide()
//$('.file_name').html(data.result.message.Name);
//$('.file_type').html(data.result.message.Type);
//$('.file_size').html(data.result.message.Length);
$('.file_msg').html(data.result.message.Error); //??? you are passing the error here
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
$('#loader').hide()
if(textStatus==="timeout") {
alert("A timeout occurred");
} else {
alert("This is an other error");
}
}
});
});
NOTE: seen you have trouble with the blockUi, I have here used a other approach.
TIMEOUT:
I have set an extra parameter 'timeout' and set this to 60 sec. You coul set this to '0' which will be unlimited but it will be better practice to give it a limited value.
Place this in your HTML and give it a style of 'display:none' and an id.
<h1><img id="loader" src="../images/ajax-loader.gif" style="display:none"/> Processing...</h1>'
I am sending username and password as request parameter to the server in AJAX and trying to show the response message. But not able to showing the response message.In fiddler it is showing the response message. But while on the browser screen it is not showing.PLEASE somebody help me out where i am wrong or need to change anything..
I have written like this-
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#btnCity").click(function () {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://test.xyz.com/login",
crossDomain: true,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
data: { username: "abc", password: "1234" },
dataType: "JSONP",
jsonpCallback: 'jsonCallback',
async: false,
success: function (resdata) {
alert(resdata);
},
error: function (result, status, err) {
alert(result.responseText);
alert(status.responseText);
alert(err.Message);
}
});
});
});
TL;DR: I guess the problem is on the server side of your code (that we don't know yet).
At first: I don't know why it fails for you. I've taken your code and ran it against a public available JSONP API, that returns the current IP of your system and it worked.
Please try yourself using the URL: http://ip.jsontest.com/.
So most probably, the server doesn't return the right response to the JSONP request. Have a look at the network tab in developer tools. With your current code, the answer of the server should be something like:
jsonCallback({'someResponseKeys': 'someResponseValue'});
Note: The header should contain Content-Type:application/javascript!
BTW, even if this doesn't for now solve your problem - here are some tweaks, I'd like to advice to you:
Don't set async to false, at the documentation of jQuery.ajax() says:
Cross-domain requests and dataType: "jsonp" requests do not support synchronous
operation.
You don't need to set a jsonpCallback, because jQuery will generate and handle (using the success function a random one for you. Quote from the docs:
This value will be used instead of the random name automatically generated by jQuery. It is preferable to let jQuery generate a unique name as it'll make it easier to manage the requests and provide callbacks and error handling.
So here comes my code:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#btnCity").click(function () {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://ip.jsontest.com/",
crossDomain: true,
data: { username: "abc", password: "1234" },
dataType: "JSONP",
success: function (resdata) {
console.log("success", resdata);
},
error: function (result, status, err) {
console.log("error", result.responseText);
console.log("error", status.responseText);
console.log("error", err.Message);
}
});
});
});
A working example can be found here.
Another solution, like Yonatan Ayalon suggested, can be done with a predefined function and then setting the jsonpCallback explicitly to the function that should be called.
if you see the response in Fiddler, it seems that the issue is in the callback function.
you are doing a jsonP call - which means that you need a callback function to "read" the response data.
Do you have a local function that calls "jsonCallback"?
this is a simple jsonP request, which initiates the function "gotBack()" with the response data:
function gotBack(data) {
console.log(data);
}
$.ajax({
url: 'http://test.xyz.com/login' + '?callback=?',
type: "POST",
data: formData,
dataType: "jsonp",
jsonpCallback: "gotBack"
});
You can try with the following methods and close every instance of chrome browser in task manager, then open browser in web security disable mode by the command "chrome.exe --disable-web-security"
success: function (resdata) {
alert(resdata);
alert(JSON.stringify(resdata));
},
And the better option to debug the code using "debugger;"
success: function (resdata) {
debugger;
alert(resdata);
alert(JSON.stringify(resdata));
},
i am trying to make ajax call with PUT method. Below is the code, but i am getting with the error XML Parsing Error: no element found Location: moz-nullprincipal:{c847a4af-f009-4907-a103-50874fcbbe35} Line Number 1, Column 1:
$.ajax({
type: "PUT",
async: true,
url: "http://localhost:8080/karthick/update",
data: JSON.stringify(params),
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: "JSON",
processdata: true,
success: function (json) { //On Successfull service call
},
error: function (xhr) {
alert(xhr.responseText);
}
});
return false;
};
function ServiceFailed(xhr) {
alert(xhr.responseText);
if (xhr.responseText) {
var err = xhr.responseText;
if (err)
error(err);
else
error({ Message: "Unknown server error." })
}
return;
}
But this service is working Good with Rest-client jar. Also my POST method works fine in my browser. Please help me in this.

Usually, this error comes, when making a cross browser request. Try data: JSONP and see if it helps.
I have a problem to refresh a bloc in my page.
Here is the request:
> $("#pwd_lost_link").click(function(){
alert('1');
$.ajax({
type : 'POST',
url: 'test.php',
dataType: 'json',
data :{"nom" : "akbar"},
success : function(data){
$("#main_bloc").append(data.msg);
alert('2');
},
error : function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert(XMLHttpRequest.responseText);
alert(errorThrown); }
}); })
and here is the php file
<?php
$return['nom'] = "ffrfrfrfr";
echo json_encode($return)
?>
It doesn't work. It give me a status error ( 0 ) and the page is automatically reloaded
Thanks

Confusing question Michael, not sure what you mean by "the page is automatically reloaded" but you should do 2 things:
In the $.ajax() method, make sure your success called back is handling the data correctly. You are looking for data.msg but I don't see where .msg comes from.
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
data: {},
dataType: "json",
url: url,
success: function(data) {
// parse data object so you can see what's being returned ex. alert(data) or alert(data[0]) or alert(data.nom)
},
error: function (xhr, status, error) {
// XHR DOM reference: http://www.w3schools.com/dom/dom_http.asp
// check for errors ex. alert(xhr.statusText);
}
});
On the PHP side, you may want to debug there to see what is being received and what you are sending back.
Aside from that using an XHR viewer like Firebug or Chrome's built-in utility (CTRL+SHIFT+I) can be very helpful.
And on a final note, if pwd_lost_link is a link elment a id="pwd_lost_link" href="..." then you will have to stop the browser from following the link before you process the AJAX.
$("#pwd_lost_link").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
alert('1');
$.ajax({
...
});
If you aren't seeing the '1' being alerted then that is definitely your first problem.
You're trying to access data.msg, but your PHP script is only creating data.nom. So data.msg doesn't exist. Try changing data.msg to data.nom and see if this does what you want.
