How do I throw an error message within AJAX? - javascript

For some reason I can't throw an error message to say whether or not an email exists inside of my user table. I understand that because AJAX is async I can't use try and catch error messages inside the complete function. But I tried splitting it into functions and it still doesn't work.
Try, Catch Function (I do call this else where in my code)
try {
// Check fields are not empty
if (!firstName || !lastName || !aquinasEmail || !sPassword || !sCPassword || !Gender) {
throw "One or more field(s) have been left empty.";
}
// Check the email format is '#aquinas.ac.uk'
if(!emailCheck.test(aquinasEmail)) {
throw "The email address you entered has an incorrect email prefix. ";
}
// Check there are not any numbers in the First or Last name
if (!regx.test(firstName) || !regx.test(lastName)) {
throw "First Name or Last Name is invalid.";
}
// Check the confirmation password is the same as the first password
if (sPassword != sCPassword) {
throw "The two passwords you've entered are different.";
}
if(duplicatedEmail()) {
throw "Sadly, your desired email is taken. If you have forgotten your password please, Click Here";
}
} catch(err) {
if (!error) {
$('body').prepend("<div class=\"error alert\">"+err+"</div>");
$('.signupInput.sPassword').val('');
$('.signupInput.sCPassword').val('');
setTimeout(function() {
$('.error.alert').fadeOut('1000', function() {$('.error.alert').remove();});
}, 2600);
}
event.preventDefault();
}
AJAX Function:
function duplicatedEmail() {
// Use AJAX function to do verification checks which can not be done via jQuery.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/login/ajaxfunc/verifyReg.php",
dataType: "JSON",
async: false,
data: $('.signupForm').serialize(),
success: function(data) {
if (data.emailTaken == true) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
});
}
verifyReg.php
<?php
header('Content-Type: application/json', true);
$error = array();
require_once '../global.php';
$_POST['aquinas-email'] = "aq142647#aquinas.ac.uk";
// Check if an email already exists.
$checkEmails = $db->query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE aquinasEmail = '{$_POST['aquinas-email']}'");
if ($db->num($checkEmails) > 0) {
$error['emailTaken'] = true;
} else {
$error['emailTaken'] = false;
}
echo json_encode($error);
?>

to handle the error with jquery ajax function add error callback like this
function duplicatedEmail() {
// Use AJAX function to do verification checks which can not be done via jQuery.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/login/ajaxfunc/verifyReg.php",
dataType: "JSON",
async: false,
data: $('.signupForm').serialize(),
success: function(data) {
if (data.emailTaken == true) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
},
error: function() {
//Your Error Message
console.log("error received from server");
}
});
}
to throw an exception in your PHP:
throw new Exception("Something bad happened");

Looking at your AJAX Function, and these two answers here and here, you need to make a small change to how you are returning the synchronous result:-
function duplicatedEmail() {
var result;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/login/ajaxfunc/verifyReg.php",
dataType: "JSON",
async: false,
data: $('.signupForm').serialize(),
success: function(data) {
result = data.emailTaken;
}
});
return result;
}

use ajax error function..
function duplicatedEmail() {
// Use AJAX function to do verification checks which can not be done via jQuery.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/login/ajaxfunc/verifyReg.php",
dataType: "JSON",
async: false,
data: $('.signupForm').serialize(),
success: function(data) {
if (data.emailTaken == true) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
},
error: function (result) {
alert("Error with AJAX callback"); //your message
}
});
}

AJAX Callback Not Showing Success Message - ASP.NET MVC C#

I have some AJAX code in my JavaScript which is not showing any success or failure alert.
function AttemptHouseViewingAppointment(house) {
var imgOfHouse = $(house).attr("value");
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '#Url.Action("AttemptHouseViewingAppointment", "Viewing")',
dataType: "json",
data: ({
userId: #Model.UserId,
appointmentKey: '#Model.Key',
chosenHouse: imgOfHouse
}),
success: function (data) {
alert(data);
if (data.success) {
alert(data.message);
} else { alert(data.Message) }
},
error: function (xhr) {
alert(xhr.responseText);
}
});
};
The above function is called when I click an image on the screen. This part works fine as I have set a breakpoint on my ASP controller and I can see the relevant action being called. C# code below:
public ActionResult AttemptHouseViewingAppointment(int userId, string appointmentKey, int chosenHouse)
{
string selecteHouseName = $"./house-code-icons/{chosenHouse}.png";
var house =
_ctx.houses.Where(x => x.HouseID == userId && x.Icon == chosenHouse)
.FirstOrDefault() ?? null;
if(house != null)
{
var member = _ctx.User.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Id.Equals(userId));
_ctx.Appointments.Add(new ViewingModel
{
House = chosenHouse,
UserId = userId
});
_ctx.SaveChanges();
return Json(new { success = true, message = "Appointment Confirmed!" });
}
else
{
return Json(new { success = false, message = "Sorry, a booking has already been made!" });
}
}
Even though, the return Json lines are being hit and returned to the page, there is no alert popup on my page to let user know if success or not. Please let me know if any questions.
Thanks
Add the done function to the end of Ajax
$.ajax({
.

.
}).done(function( response ) {
alert(response);
...
});

Why e.status is getting as undefined in success function of ajax request?

I am getting my reponse as {"status":true}. But when I do console.log(e.status) I am getting as undefined.
When I do console.log(e) I get {"status":true}
This is my ajax request
$("#msgfrm").on("submit", function(e) {
event.preventDefault();
var name = $("#name").val();
var email = $("#email").val();
$.ajax({
url: 'ajaxinsert.php',
method: 'POST',
data: {
name: name,
email: email
},
success: function(e) {
console.log(e);
console.log(e.status);
if (e.status === 'true') {
alert("success");
} else {
alert("Fail");
}
}
});
});
Please tell me what is my error??
It is because you are getting result as string. Try parsing it before using it.
success:function(e){
var obj=jQuery.parseJSON(e);
alert(obj);
alert(obj.status);
}

Ajax success function not working in jquery mobile

I am trying to validate a basic login form with username and password fields. I need to validate username and password from check.php ajax page. There is no problem in ajax request and response. I am getting proper response from ajax page. But Ajax success function is not working properly.
ajaxrequest.html
$(document).on('pagebeforeshow', '#login', function(){
$(document).on('click', '#submit', function() {
if($('#username').val().length > 0 && $('#password').val().length > 0){
$.ajax({
url : 'serverurl/check.php',
data: {action : 'login', formData : $('#check-user').serialize()},
type: 'post',
beforeSend: function() {
$.mobile.loading(true);
alert("beforesend");
},
complete: function() {
$.mobile.loading(false);
alert("complete");
},
success: function (result) {
console.log("Ajax response");
res = JSON.stringify(result);
if(res.status == "success"){
resultObject.formSubmitionResult = res.uname;
localStorage["login_details"] = window.JSON.stringify(result);
$.mobile.changePage("#second");
}else{
$.mobile.changePage("#login");
alert("incorrect login");
}
},
error: function (request,error) {
alert('Network error has occurred please try again!');
}
});
} else {
alert('Fill all fields');
}
return false;
});
});
Here i have added my ajax page. This page only validates posted username and password. Finally it returns json object. What am i doing wrong?
serverurl/check.php
header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");
header('Content-Type: application/json');
if(isset($_POST['formData']) && isset($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'login'){
parse_str($_POST['formData'],$searchArray);
$uname = "arun";
$pwd = "welcome";
$resultArray = array();
if($uname == $searchArray['username'] && $pwd == $searchArray['password'])
{
$resultArray['uname'] = $searchArray['username'];
$resultArray['pwd'] = $searchArray['password'];
$resultArray['status'] = 'success';
}else{
$resultArray['status'] = 'failed';
}
echo json_encode($resultArray);
}
Your code should be
success: function (result) {
console.log("Ajax response");
//don't do this
//res = JSON.stringify(result);
if(result.status == "success"){
resultObject.formSubmitionResult = result.uname;
localStorage["login_details"] = window.JSON.stringify(result);
$.mobile.changePage("#second");
}else{
$.mobile.changePage("#login");
alert("incorrect login");
}
After JSON.stringify you are accessing like stringJson.status this will not work. it mast have "parsed" "json object" not stringify.
Don't need to convert your JSON to String.
$(document).on('pagebeforeshow', '#login', function(){
$(document).on('click', '#submit', function() {
if($('#username').val().length > 0 && $('#password').val().length > 0){
$.ajax({
url : 'serverurl/check.php',
data: {action : 'login', formData : $('#check-user').serialize()},
type: 'post',
beforeSend: function() {
$.mobile.loading(true);
alert("beforesend");
},
complete: function() {
$.mobile.loading(false);
alert("complete");
},
success: function (result) {
console.log("Ajax response");
//Don't need to converting JSON to String
//res = JSON.stringify(result);
//directly use result
if(result.status == "success"){
resultObject.formSubmitionResult = result.uname;
localStorage["login_details"] = window.JSON.stringify(result);
$.mobile.changePage("#second");
}else{
$.mobile.changePage("#login");
alert("incorrect login");
}
},
error: function (request,error) {
alert('Network error has occurred please try again!');
}
});
} else {
alert('Fill all fields');
}
return false;
});
});
Your AJAX call is perfect but datatype is not declared in ajax
Try with jSON OR JSONP. You will get success.
$.ajax({
url : 'serverurl/check.php',
type: 'post',
dataType: "json", OR "jsonp",
async: false,
data: {action : 'login', formData : $('#check-user').serialize()},
beforeSend: function() {
$.mobile.loading(true);
alert("beforesend");
},
complete: function() {
$.mobile.loading(false);
alert("complete");
},
success: function (result) {
console.log("Ajax response");
alert(JSON.stringify(result)); // Check response in alert then parse according to that
res = JSON.stringify(result);
if(res.status == "success"){
resultObject.formSubmitionResult = res.uname;
localStorage["login_details"] = window.JSON.stringify(result);
$.mobile.changePage("#second");
}else{
$.mobile.changePage("#login");
alert("incorrect login");
}
},
error: function (request,error) {
alert('Network error has occurred please try again!');
}
});
Under some circumstances your server might not return the response correctly. Have you tried to handle the actual response code (e.g. if your server returns 200) like this:
$.ajax({
url : 'serverurl/check.php',
data: {action : 'login', formData : $('#check-user').serialize()},
type: 'post',
....
statusCode: {
200: function (response) {
// do your stuff here
}
}
});

jQUery ajax code alerts an empty string

I send an ajax request when the user fills the email input, here is the code:
_email.blur(function(){
$.ajax({
url : base_path("user/register/ajax/email"),
type: "POST",
data: ({ email : _email.val() , }),
success: function(message)
{
alert(message);
},
});
}); // end of email blur
Then the php returns a string on success, and one on failure (CodeIgniter Controller)
if($param == "email")
{
$this->form_validation->set_rules("email", "required | email");
$this->form_validation->set_rules("email", "is_unique[users.email]");
if($this->form_validation->run !== FALSE)
{
echo (json_encode("thanks"));
}
else
{
echo (json_encode("Ranks"));
}
}
PROBLEM: it seems ajax request is successful, but the message it alerts is not appropriate since it alerts an empty string.
i'd look at this:
json_encode("thanks")
I havent coded any PHP for a long time but shouldnt json_encode be for encoding associative arrays? eg
json_encode(array("message" => "thanks"))
as you are using json_encode you could try this after the if else statement
exit(json_encode($respond));
return $this->output->set_output(json_encode($respond));
where $respond is the message you want to display.
_email.blur(function(){
$.ajax({
url : base_path("user/register/ajax/email"),
type: "POST",
data: ({ email : _email.val() , }),
success: function(message)
{
alert(message);
}
});
});
if($param == "email")
{
$this->form_validation->set_rules("email", "required | email");
$this->form_validation->set_rules("email", "is_unique[users.email]");
if($this->form_validation->run !== FALSE)
{
echo "thanks";
}
else
{
echo "Ranks";
}
exit;
}
For resonse in json you should use data type like:
$.ajax({
dataType: "json",
url: url,
data: data,
success: success
});
php code:
json_encode(array("content" => "thanks"));
js code:
success: function(message)
{
alert(message.content);
}
