In the following piece of JavaScript code, i'm executing GetData.php using AJAX. However, when i remove the comments to see the request object's state property, it turns up as undefined, although the PHP script is getting executed properly and my page is changing as i want it to. But i still need the state property. Any clue on what's going on here ?
function refreshPage()
{
var curr = document.getElementById('list').value;
var opts = document.getElementById('list').options;
for(var i=0;i<opts.length;i++)
document.getElementById('list').remove(opts[i]);
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
request.onreadystatechange=
function()
{
if(request.readyState == 4)
{
//alert(request.state);
//if(request.state == 200)
{
fillOptions();
var exists = checkOption(curr);
var opts = document.getElementById('list').options;
if(exists == true)
{
for(var i=0;i<opts.length;i++)
if(curr == opts[i])
{
opts[i].selected = true;
break;
}
}
else
{
opts[0].selected = true;
}
refreshData();
}
/*else
{
alert(request.responseText);
//document.close();
}*/
}
}
request.open("GET","GetData.php?Address=" + address + "&Port=" + port,true);
request.send();
}
Do you mean request.status not request.state?
Try changing it to the .status and it should work just fine :)

When is XMLHttpRequest destroyed?
I just wrote the simple function below, and xmlhttp has been sent successfully, but responseText isn't sent to the function SetStringinDiv(). The variable str is empty and the variable location has value.
I have no idea how to fix it, and I don't know what the keyword for this problem is, either. If this kind of question already exists, please tell me how to find it or what the keyword is.
<script>
function foo(){
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
var str = xmlhttp.responseText;
SetStringinDiv("div1", str);
}
}
xmlhttp.open("GET", "uri", true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
<script>
function SetStringinDiv(location, str) {
document.getElementById("location").innerHTML = location;
document.getElementById("str").innerHTML = str;
if (document.getElementByID(location) == null) {
document.getElementById("error").innerHTML += ">> error, can not find the div, "
+ location + "\n";
}
document.getElementByID(location).innerHTML = str;
}
</script>
Check for xmlhttp.status != 200 and print out an error. Print out the readystate and status on each call to onreadystatechange. I think you will see an error message in statusText.
These days it is recommended to not use the onreadystatechange callback. I use the code below. Note that if the server does not respond and does not close the connection that your request won't timeout for quite some time (2-5 minutes) - either in your code or that below. If it is sitting there, shut down the server. You will get an immediate error response then.
var req = new XMLHttpRequest(),
done = function(response) {
callback(cache[uri.split('/').pop()] = cache[uri] = response);
};
req.open("GET", uri + ".lispz", true);
req.onerror = function(err) {
done({
uri: uri,
error: err
});
}
req.onload = function() {
return (req.status != 200) ? req.onerror(req.statusText) : done(run(req.responseText));
};
req.send();
Can someone tell me why this will not work in Joomla 2.5 but does in 1.5?
The error I'm receiving is - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'childNodes' of null ajax.php:33
If I enter in the url: index.php?option=com_mmg&controller=ajax&task=listModels&make_id=3
It outputs the ajxGetModels function like it's suppose to.
I know Joomla 2.5 Ajax Calls got changed or something like that but, I can't find a solution online to convert what I have below to the 2.5 version way of doing so.
Any help or direction would be very useful. Thank you.
function ajxGetModels(reload)
{
if (reload) {
var use_make = 'sel_make_id';
} else {
var use_make = 'make_id';
}
var make_id = document.getElementById(use_make).value;
var xhr = createXHR();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xhr.readyState == 4) {
if (xhr.status == 200) {
var model=document.getElementById("model_id");
try //Internet Explorer
{
xmlDoc=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.async="false";
xmlDoc.loadXML(xhr.responseText);
}
catch(e)
{
try //Firefox, Mozilla, Opera, etc.
{
parser=new DOMParser();
xmlDoc=parser.parseFromString(xhr.responseText,"text/xml");
}
catch(e) {alert(e.message)}
}
var options =xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("options").item(0);
model.innerHTML='';
for (i=0; i < options.childNodes.length; i++){
var newoption=document.createElement("option");
var myoption=options.childNodes[i];
var newtext=document.createTextNode(myoption.childNodes[0].nodeValue);
newoption.setAttribute("value",myoption.getAttributeNode("id").value)
newoption.appendChild(newtext);

}

if (reload) {
var preVal = document.getElementById('sel_model_id').value;
setMmgVal('model_id',preVal);
ajxGetYears(true);
}
} else {
alert('Error code ' + xhr.status);
}
}
}
xhr.open("GET","index.php?option=com_mmg&controller=ajax&task=listModels&make_id="+make_id,true);
xhr.send(null);
}

var xhr = null;

It was not working because $error_reporting was set to "maximum" in configuration.php.
Still though - there has to be a better way.
I'm new to using AJAX and my code works in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox or Chrome.
I do not know what it is exactly what should change in the code ...

Strongly suggest that you use a lib like jQuery that encapsulates a lot of what you're doing above, masking cross-browser issues (current and future). Even if you don't want to use jQuery site-wide, you could still use it just for its AJAX functionality.

Can you tell me how to squash that error please?
It looks like the offending line is setTimeout("quickfilter_mafiaafire.redirectToAnotherUrl()",1500);
The setTimeout function can take a string (which then essentially gets eval'd) or a function (which gets called). Using a string is not recommended, for all the same reasons that using eval is not recommended. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.setTimeout
In this case, the simplest fix would be to change it to setTimeout(function() { quickfilter_mafiaafire.redirectToAnotherUrl(); },1500);
XmlHttpRequest works through callbacks. So how can I return a value? I tried to set a global variable, but that doesn't seem to be working.
var response = null; // contains the most recent XmlHttpRequest response
// loads the info for this username on the page
function loadUsernameInfo(username) {
getUserInfo(username);
var profile = response;
if (profile) {
// do stuff
}
else {
indicateInvalidUsername(username);
}
}
getUserInfo() can't return a result, because of the callback:
function getUserInfo(username) {
var request = createRequest();
request.onreadystatechange = userObjFromJSON;
var twitterURL = "http://twitter.com/users/show/" + escape(username) + ".json";
var url = "url.php?url=" + twitterURL;
request.open("GET", url, true);
request.send(null);
}
The callback:
function userObjFromJSON() {
if (this.readyState == 4) {
alert(this.responseText);
response = this.responseText;
}
}
How can I get the response back to loadUsernameInfo()?
You can do synchronous requests, though it is not recommended - the A is for Asynchronous... But the general idea to implement this correctly would be:
var response = null; // contains the most recent XmlHttpRequest response
// loads the info for this username on the page
function loadUsernameInfo(username) {
getUserInfo(username, onLoadUsernameComplete);
}
function getUserInfo(username, oncomplete) {
var request = createRequest();
request.__username = username;
request.onreadystatechange = oncomplete;
var twitterURL = "http://twitter.com/users/show/" + escape(username) + ".json";
var url = "url.php?url=" + twitterURL;
request.open("GET", url, true);
request.send(null);
}
function onLoadUsernameComplete(req) {
if (req.readyState == 4) {
// only if "OK"
if (req.status == 200) {
var profile = req.responseXML;
if (profile) {
// do stuff
}
else {
indicateInvalidUsername(req.__username);
}
}
}
}
