I'm able to dump value of the variable message in console .
But im not able to send it off in POST Request.
AJAX call:
chat.throwmsg = function(message) {
if ($.trim(message).length != 0) {
console.log(message);
$.ajax({
url: 'ajax/chat.php',
type: 'post',
data: { method: 'throw', message: message} ,
success: function(data) {
chat.fetchmsgs();
$('textarea#entry').val('');
}
});
}
}
This maybe due to wrong syntax, but I've tried both single and double quotes, and combination as well .
With a wild assumption, you are not having any error messages in developer console and chat.php has a post handler forthese parameters
Since your data is JSON, please change the code as this way and have a try..
var temp={ method: 'throw', message: message};
var param=JSON.stringify(temp);
$.ajax({
url: 'ajax/chat.php',
type: 'post',
data: param ,
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
chat.fetchmsgs();
$('textarea#entry').val('');
}
});
after reviewing the code I could not find any issues that restrict the data to be sent along with ajax request,if you are having any syntax errors you should have been warned prior the request initialization, however I recommend you to check the request header in the network tab of browser console and see your sending data along with the request if it's there you probably need to check the code of getting the post data in your server-side implementations

I am trying to send some data to my server using an AJAX Post call. However, whenever I run the function containing the ajax call I get a server error. Here is my AJAX call (I am trying to send a string and put it inside json for the purposes of this call):
function sendFileName(){
data_to_send={"name": scriptName};
data_to_send=JSON.stringify(data_to_send);
$.ajax({
url: '/filename',
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
data: data_to_send,
error: function(resp){
console.log("Oh no...");
console.log(scriptName);
console.log(resp);
},
success: function(resp){
console.log('Sent file name!');
console.log(resp);
}
});
}
When I log the scriptName I get it in the console, so the data exists. I'm assuming the issue has to do with the way in which I'm sending it?
Here is the server-side code as well, where when I log the req it shows up as undefined:
app.post("/filename", function(req,res) {
file = req.body.name;
console.log(file);
});
Would really appreciate any help I can get with this!
I am new to angular, and I'm trying to make a call to a Rest API and get its response. My issue is that my JavaScript keeps getting stuck on the Ajax call. I'm not sure if it's the data I am sending or the syntax of the Ajax call. I tried to alert 'Hello world' and that worked, then I alerted the JSON array and that was formatted correctly, but when I do the Ajax post, I don't get any response at all.
Any insight would be nice, thank you.
test.html
<button onclick="myFunction()">Post it</button>
test.js
function myFunction() {
var postData = [{"logintype":"1","user":"Administrator","password":"12345","controlid":"999","host":"192.168.2.164"}
];
$.ajax({
url: '192.168.2.164/isapi/rip.dll/rest/session',
type: 'POST',
contentType: 'application/json',
data: JSON.stringify( postData ),
success: function(){
alert('hello');
},
error: function(){
alert('error');
}
});
};
You have specified a relative URL, where I think you intended to specify an absolute URL. If the current page URL is http://localhost/myapp/, and you request 192.168.2.164/isapi/rip.dll/rest/session, that URL is resolved as http://localhost/myapp/192.168.2.164/isapi/rip.dll/rest/session.
If 192.168.2.164 is the ip address of the server you are trying to hit (and not a directory relative to your current path on your server), you will need to add // to the beginning of the URL to make it absolute (well, schema-relative at least):
$.ajax({
url: '//192.168.2.164/isapi/rip.dll/rest/session',
type: 'POST',
contentType: 'application/json',
data: JSON.stringify( postData ),
success: function(){
alert('hello');
},
error: function(){
alert('error');
}
});
Your issue has nothing to do with angular. What I will refer you to is the angular docs description of how to do a POST request and a small example of the syntax taken from the docs.
Learn to use $http or something similar if you want to develop with angular. https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http
Small example:
// Simple POST request example (passing data) :
$http.post('/someUrl', {msg:'hello word!'}).
then(function(response) {
// this callback will be called asynchronously
// when the response is available
}, function(response) {
// called asynchronously if an error occurs
// or server returns response with an error status.
});
I have to update a large collection so I am calling in a loop an web api. I use jQuery.ajax()
Something like this:
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'http://www.somesite.com/API/API.php',
jsonpCallback: 'API_SC4',
contentType: "application/json",
dataType: 'jsonp',
data:'action=update&page='+collection[currentIndex].name+'&callback=API_SC4',
async:false,
success: function(data) {
//use data for update of collection[currentIndex]
UpdateNext(currentIndex+1);
},
error: function(e) {
//interpret error
UpdateNext(currentIndex+1);
}
});
The problem is the collection is quite large and sometimes I get a 502 Bad Gateway error and the ajax error handler is not called.
I even tried $( document ).ajaxError() but i'm doing a cross-domain jsonp call , and it seems .ajaxError() does not get called in that situation.
Is there any way to handle that error? Something at window level?
I can see the error in the Chrome development console , and I was thinking there might be a way.
Thanks
Yes, there is: statusCode. See the jQuery documentation on AJAX for details.
Simple example:
$.ajax({
statusCode: {
502: function () {
alert('Fail!');
}
}
});
So I'm trying to query the below json feed, however I keep getting the error in the topic.
I've searched around this site for possible answers however none that I've come across have worked so far. Commented out datatype and jsonp, jsonpCallback isnt it either, either is data, I've made sure that it validats via http://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/ and it does. I really dont know.
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'http://raidbots.com/json/playerdata/us/mannoroth/usiris',
cache:true,
dataType: 'jsonp',
data: {
format: 'json',
},
success: ranks,
jsonpCallback:'callbackName',
error: function(data) { console.log(data); },
jsonp: false,
});
function callbackName(data){
console.log("jsonpCallback");
}
var ranks = function(data) {
console.log(data);
}
Thank you

The error is in your JSONp data because it's just JSON and not JSONp. JSONp requires the document to be valid JavaScript containing a function call.
If they don't support jsonp you need to use a proxy script (e.g. a php script on your server that retrieves the document) or ask them to send CORS headers so you can use a normal non-JSONp AJAX call to retrieve the data directly.
I am facing problem when I am posting a JSON data to the server using Ajax call in jQuery the function does not enter success mode. When I post using the POSTER Plugin of Firefox it gets posted successfully. Sharing the code snippet and screenshot of the same:
function showSubscribeContent()
{
alert("*1*------- SUB CLICKED");
var myJSONData = '{"data":{"mode" : "subscribe","technologyareas":[1],"assettypes":["podcast","documents"]}}';
alert("*2*------- POSTING--------->"+myJSONData);
$('#subscribePage').html('<h1>POSTING...</h1>');
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'https://tt.s2.acc.com/tt/subscribe-service/uid=sagar_mate',
data: myJSONData,
dataType: 'application/xml',
success: function(data) {
alert("*3*------- POSTED SUCCESSFULLY TO THE SERVER");
$('#subscribePage').html('<h1>POSTED</h1>');
} // Success Function
}); // Ajax Call
}
I am getting alert number 1 and 2 but not 3.
Also when I post using POSTER plugin of Firefox, it gets posted easily.
The Response is success.
I am unable to post the same data using AJAX call.
Thanks,
Ankit
Unless and until the URL in your AJAX call is of the same Domain, I don't think it will get posted successfully. POSTER plugin of Firefox doesn't put any such restriction on the domain, but browser will put this restriction on the application.
Try checking in the error: function(){alert(4);}
to see if it reaches the error handler atleast
Please clearify what you want, when using POSTER Plugin of Firefox you have specified datatype as json where as when using ajax you are using xml.
If you what to post data as JSON use JSON.stringify which accepts JSON object and convert it to string.
Try with this code
function showSubscribeContent()
{
alert("*1*------- SUB CLICKED");
var myJSONData = {"data":{"mode" : "subscribe","technologyareas":[1],"assettypes":["podcast","documents"]}};
alert("*2*------- POSTING--------->"+myJSONData);
$('#subscribePage').html('<h1>POSTING...</h1>');
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'https://tt.s2.acc.com/tt/subscribe-service/uid=sagar_mate',
data: myJSONData,
dataType: 'application/json',
success: function(data) {
alert("*3*------- POSTED SUCCESSFULLY TO THE SERVER");
$('#subscribePage').html('<h1>POSTED</h1>');
} // Success Function
}); // Ajax Call
}
Here I have changed the following lines
Converted myJSONData to a JSON object from string
var myJSONData = {"data":{"mode" : "subscribe","technologyareas":[1],"assettypes":["podcast","documents"]}};
Note: try with the string(the way you were doing) if this is not working for you
Changed datatyle to JSON
dataType: 'application/json',
Adding a header in beforeSend Function worked fine for me. Security reasons of CORS.
