I'm working with someone else's code trying to get an alert to come up to notify the user if the operation was unsuccessful. I put an "if (true)" statement in front of the function and then an "else" statement after the function, thinking that IF the function ran successfully, it would alert the user with "success" otherwise it would alert "operation failed". Did I do this right? I'm completely new to Javascript.
$("#assignBtn").on("click", function () {if(true){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: $SCRIPT_ROOT + '/_parse_checklist/assign_checklist',
data: {
username: $("#assignChecklistTo").val(),
id: $clientSelect.val()
},
dataType: "json",
beforeSend: function () {
},
complete: function () {
alert("Success!");
}
});}
else {alert("Operation unsuccessful...")}
});
Instead of if/else you can use ajax methods:
success: function(data) {
// success
},
error: function(data) {
// error
}

My problem is that when I press yes on delete confirmation the db record goes away, but if I refresh the page it comes back.
Maybe I have to put the language and the id inside the Ajax URL?
If yes how can I do this?
Please forgive me I am still learning.
This is for java eclipse and SQL database

no error but ajax and jQuery not working
I am using ASP.net MVC, and following is the Html code
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: urlAjax,
dataType: 'json',
data: dataValue,
async: false,
beforeSend: function () {
$("#waitscreen").show();
},
complete: function () {
$("#waitscreen").hide();
},
success: function (data) {
alert("success")
},
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, error) {
alert("fail")
}
});
<div id=waitscreen>
//some code
</div>
Code in external js
function _post(someparameter)
{
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: urlAjax,
dataType: 'json',
data: dataValue,
async: false,
beforeSend: function () {
$("#waitscreen").show();
},
complete: function () {
$("#waitscreen").hide();
},
success: function (data) {
alert("success")
},
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, error) {
alert("fail")
}
});
}
Also tried adding document ready in above code it is still not working
Above code worked fine and it show and hide as expected, but now I need to repeat ajax call in every page so I decided to move in external JS file now same code is not showing waitscreen.
Things I tried:
Loaded external script in head - Not working
Loaded external script at end of page - Not working
Question: I want to make hide and show work from external JS file
The following code snippet should help you. Tested by including the external JS file in the <head> of the main document and just below the inclusion of jQuery.
// main window
var json = {"key": "value"}
console.log('before calling _post()');
_post(json); // call external JS
// code in external JS say test.js
function _post(someparameter)
{
console.log('external JS called!');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'http://www.niketpathak.com',
dataType: 'json',
data: someparameter,
async: true,
beforeSend: function () {
$("#waitscreen").show();
},
complete: function () {
// $("#waitscreen").hide();
},
success: function (data) {
alert("success")
},
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, error) {
//delaying the error callback
setTimeout(function() {
$("#waitscreen").hide();
console.log('after completing the http-request');
}, 500);
}
});
};
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id=waitscreen>
Waitscreen....
</div>
Also, note that I have used async: true (which is also the default) since setting it to false is deprecated and not a good idea as it blocks the UI.
My ajax code in External.js file,
function _post()
{
var data = {
Email: "a#a.com",
Password:"1111"
}
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/Home/hello/",
dataType: 'json',
data: data,
async: false,
beforeSend: function () {
$("#waitscreen").show();
},
complete: function () {
$("#waitscreen").hide();
},
success: function (data) {
alert("success")
},
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, error) {
alert("fail")
}
});
}
In my HomeController, I have hello method like this,
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult hello(LoginViewModel data)
{
ViewBag.Message = "Your contact page.";
return Json(data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
And in my all the views I have the "waitscreen" div.
Now I just reference the External.js file to my _Layout page, I just drag and drop after jquery reference.
<script src="~/Scripts/External.js"></script>
Then in end of the same _Layout page, i just call the method like this,
<script>
_post();
</script>
Everything working properly.
Note: If you have only one parameter in your hello action method and suppose you have written like (int x) then in that case it will through 500 error. Because in your RouteConfig.js its mentioned that, by default the parameter name should be id. So you need to write int id.
Hope its help.
I have a difficulty to know when all Ajax requests are completed because I need this information to call another function.
Difficulty are to know when my 4/5 function with requests are completed. I use native function of ajax and none is working for me.
I used Chrome, and async requests.
Someone Helps me
I use this(not work):
$(document).ajaxStop(function() {
alert("Completed");
});
and this (not Work):
$(document).ajaxComplete(function() { alert("Completed"); });
Both ways I try use in another function thal calls all requests:
Example:
function Init()
{ Search("123"); Search2("1234"); Search3("12345");
... }
Extract one (of 5 requests,others are very similar ) of my request:
function Search(user) {
$.ajax({
url: 'www.example.com/' + user,
type: 'GET',
async: true,
dataType: 'JSONP',
success: function(response, textStatus, jqXHR) {
try {
if (response != null) {
alert("Have Data");
} else {
alert("are empty");
}
} catch (err) {
alert("error");
}
},
error: function() {
alert("error");
}
}); }
have you tried putting it in a done function? something like...
$.ajax({
url: 'www.example.com/' + user,
type: 'GET',
async: true,
dataType: 'JSONP'
}).done(function (data) {
code to execute when request is finished;
}).fail(function () {
code to do in event of failure
});
bouncing off what Michael Seltenreich said, his solution, if i understand where you guys are going with this...might look something like:
var count = 0;
function checkCount(){
if(count == 5 ){
//do this, or fire some other function
}
}
#request one
$.ajax({
url: 'www.example.com/' + user,
type: 'GET',
async: true,
dataType: 'JSONP',
}).done( function(data){
count += 1
checkCount()
})
#request two
$.ajax({
url: 'www.example.com/' + user,
type: 'GET',
async: true,
dataType: 'JSONP',
}).done( function(data){
count += 1
checkCount()
})
and do it with your five requests. If that works out for you please make sure to mark his question as the answer;)
You can create a custom trigger
$(document).trigger('ajaxDone')
and call it when ever you finished your ajax requests.
Then you can listen for it
$(document).on('ajaxDone', function () {
//Do something
})
If you want to keep track of multiple ajax calls you can set a function that counts how many "done" values were passed to it, and once all are finished, you can fire the event.
Place the call for this function in each of the 'success' and 'error' events of the ajax calls.
Update:
You can create a function like so
var completedRequests= 0
function countAjax() {
completedRequests+=1
if(completedRequests==whatEverNumberOfRequestsYouNeed) {
$(document).trigger('ajaxDone');
}
}
Call this function on every success and error events.
Then, ajaxDone event will be triggered only after a certain number of requests.
If you wanna track specific ajax requests you can add a variable to countAjax that checks which ajax completed.
I have following ajax call:
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/Company/validateForm",
dataType: "json",
data: {
'txtCompanyName': txtCompanyName,
'txtCompanyContactPerson': txtCompanyContactPerson,
'txtCompanyPhone': txtCompanyPhone,
'txtCompanyFax': txtCompanyFax,
'txtCompanyEmail': txtCompanyEmail,
'txtCompanyWebsite': txtCompanyWebsite,
'txtZipcode': txtZipcode,
'txtCountry': txtCountry,
'txtAddress1': txtAddress1,
'txtAddress2': txtAddress2,
'txtCompanyRegNo': txtCompanyRegNo
},
success: function (responceMessage) {
alert(responceMessage);
if (responceMessage != "1") {
alert(responceMessage);
} else {
saveCompanyInformation();
}
},
error: function () {
alert('failure');
}
});
I have made sure that call is going to server side and returning proper message in string format.
But when call from validateForm method on server side is returned, it directly goes to failure instead of success method.
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here.
Console is showing:
GET http://localhost:49273/Company/validateForm?txtCompanyName=+x&txtCompanyCon…ebsite=&txtZipcode=&txtCountry=&txtAddress1=&txtAddress2=&txtCompanyRegNo= 500 (Internal Server Error)
I just made cache:false in ajax and code worked.
It was as follows:
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/Company/validateForm",
cache:false,
dataType: "json",
data:
{
'txtCompanyName': txtCompanyName,
'txtCompanyContactPerson': txtCompanyContactPerson,
'txtCompanyPhone': txtCompanyPhone,
'txtCompanyFax': txtCompanyFax,
'txtCompanyEmail': txtCompanyEmail,
'txtCompanyWebsite': txtCompanyWebsite,
'txtZipcode': txtZipcode,
'txtCountry': txtCountry,
'txtAddress1': txtAddress1,
'txtAddress2': txtAddress2,
'txtCompanyRegNo': txtCompanyRegNo
}
,
success: function (responceMessage) {
if (responceMessage != "0") {
alert(responceMessage);
}
else {
saveCompanyInformation();
}
},
error: function () {
alert('failure');
}
});
I have a problem with multiple ajax functions where the beforeSend of the second ajax post is executed before the complete function of the first ajax.
The loading class I am adding to the placeholder before sending is working for the first ajax call. However soon after the first ajax request completes the class is removed and never appends again on the second and further calls (remember recursive calls).
While debugging it shows that the beforeSend function of the second ajax call is called first and the complete function of the first ajax call is called later. Which is obvious, because the return data inserted in the page from the first ajax call starts the second call.
In short it's mixed up. Is there any way this can be sorted out?
The function code is as follows
function AjaxSendForm(url, placeholder, form, append) {
var data = $(form).serialize();
append = (append === undefined ? false : true); // whatever, it will evaluate to true or false only
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: url,
data: data,
beforeSend: function() {
// setting a timeout
$(placeholder).addClass('loading');
},
success: function(data) {
if (append) {
$(placeholder).append(data);
} else {
$(placeholder).html(data);
}
},
error: function(xhr) { // if error occured
alert("Error occured.please try again");
$(placeholder).append(xhr.statusText + xhr.responseText);
$(placeholder).removeClass('loading');
},
complete: function() {
$(placeholder).removeClass('loading');
},
dataType: 'html'
});
}
And the data contains the following snippet of javascript/jquery which checks and starts another ajax request.
<script type="text/javascript">//<!--
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#restart').val(-1)
$('#ajaxSubmit').click();
});
//--></script>
Maybe you can try the following :
var i = 0;
function AjaxSendForm(url, placeholder, form, append) {
var data = $(form).serialize();
append = (append === undefined ? false : true); // whatever, it will evaluate to true or false only
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: url,
data: data,
beforeSend: function() {
// setting a timeout
$(placeholder).addClass('loading');
i++;
},
success: function(data) {
if (append) {
$(placeholder).append(data);
} else {
$(placeholder).html(data);
}
},
error: function(xhr) { // if error occured
alert("Error occured.please try again");
$(placeholder).append(xhr.statusText + xhr.responseText);
$(placeholder).removeClass('loading');
},
complete: function() {
i--;
if (i <= 0) {
$(placeholder).removeClass('loading');
}
},
dataType: 'html'
});
}
This way, if the beforeSend statement is called before the complete statement i will be greater than 0 so it will not remove the class. Then only the last call will be able to remove it.
I cannot test it, let me know if it works or not.
It's actually much easier with jQuery's promise API:
$.ajax(
type: "GET",
url: requestURL,
).then((success) =>
console.dir(success)
).failure((failureResponse) =>
console.dir(failureResponse)
)
Alternatively, you can pass in of bind functions to each result callback; the order of parameters is: (success, failure). So long as you specify a function with at least 1 parameter, you get access to the response. So, for example, if you wanted to check the response text, you could simply do:
$.ajax(
type: "GET",
url: #get("url") + "logout",
beforeSend: (xhr) -> xhr.setRequestHeader("token", currentToken)
).failure((response) -> console.log "Request was unauthorized" if response.status is 401
