function submitLogin(){
var username = document.getElementById('username').value;
var password = document.getElementById('password').value;
var testlabel = document.getElementById('testlabel').value;
var postStr = "username=" + username + "&password=" + password + "&testlabel=" + testlabel;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
document.getElementById('mainPage').innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;//ATTENTION1
} else {
document.getElementById('mainPage').innerHTML = "Logining......";//ATTENTION2
}
}
xmlhttp.open("POST", "loginto.php", true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.send(postStr);
}
These are my codes.
If I change the "mainPage" into something else in the //ATTENTION2, the page will auto send a "GET" method, but if I still use the "mainPage" in there, there will be no problem.
However, if I change the "mainPage" into something else in the //ATTENTION1, there will have no problem with the post method, the response things can be shown in the correctly.
So, is there any solution? Thanks!
What does "something else" mean ? You need to have an id of an element in your page, where the content from the ajax response will be rendered.
For example, if you have a
<div id="myID"></div>
somewhere in the page, and change 'mainPage' in //ATTENTION1 to 'myID', then the response from the ajax request will be placed in that div.
The change you make in //ATTENTION2 is for intermediary states because it is on "else", so will not impact what happens when the ajax request is complete.

I am building an web that allows user to like a post when they click a button. CreateLike function calls API and creates a like object however, I would like to have the number of likes updated right away without reloading. I built another API that returns the number of likes for a post. Function LikeCount should put the number of likes into the p tag. It works initially when I load the page however, the value does not change when I click the button even though I can see that the API is called. (After reloading the page the number changes as expected) What am I doing wrong?
I have this HTML:
<p class="like-count" id={{post.id}}></p>
<script>LikeCount({{post.id}});</script>
<button type="button" class="btn-like" onclick="CreateLike({{user.id}},{{post.id}})"></button>
with JS functions:
function CreateLike (userid,postid) {
xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "{% url 'likes' %}";
var csrftoken = getCookie('csrftoken')
xhr.open("POST", url, true);
xhr.setRequestHeader("X-CSRFToken",'{{ csrf_token }}')
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/json");
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200) {
var json = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
console.log(json.email + ", " + json.name)
}
}
var data = JSON.stringify({csrfmiddlewaretoken:csrftoken,"user":userid,"post":postid});
xhr.send(data);
LikeCount(postid);
}
function LikeCount(postid) {
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "{% url 'likecount' id=112233 %}".replace("112233", postid);
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
var myArr = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
myFunction(myArr);
}
};
xmlhttp.open("GET", url, true);
xmlhttp.send();
function myFunction(arr) {
var out = arr.like_count;
document.getElementById(postid).innerHTML = out;
}
}
Like count API looks like this:
{
"like_count": 1
}
if(xhr.readyState === XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
var status = xhr.status;
if (status === 0 || (status >= 200 && status < 400)) {
LikeCount(); //Put your get like count here
} else {
// Handle Errors
}
}
Call LikeCount only after receiving the response of your POST request. Right now you're immediately sending a GET request without ensuring if the previous POST request got completed.
Added
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 201) {
var myArr = JSON.parse(this.responseText);
LikeCount(myArr.post);
}
};
before
xhr.send(data);
and it fixed the issue.
My first post here.
I'm using droidscript and I have to include an header that contains a specific user and a password in order to retrieve a token. I'm having trouble because I don't know where to include those headers.
That's the code I'm using:
function btn_OnTouch(){
var url = "myurl";
SendRequest(url);
}
//Send an http get request.
function SendRequest(url){
var httpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
httpRequest.onreadystatechange = function() {
HandleReply(httpRequest);
};
httpRequest.open("GET", url, true);
httpRequest.send(null);
app.ShowProgress("Loading...");
}
//Handle the servers reply (a json object).
function HandleReply(httpRequest){
if (httpRequest.readyState == 4){
//If we got a valid response.
if (httpRequest.status == 200){
txt.SetText("Response: " + httpRequest.status + httpRequest.responseText);
}
//An error occurred
else
txt.SetText("Error: " + httpRequest.status + httpRequest.responseText);
}
app.HideProgress();
}
The told me I should probably include the headers like this, but I don't know where to put them in my code.
httpRequest.setRequestHeader(“username”, “myuser”);
httpRequest.setRequestHeader(“password”, “mypass”);
You need to do it just after calling the open method like this:-
httpRequest.open("GET", url, true);
httpRequest.setRequestHeader("username", "myuser");
httpRequest.setRequestHeader("password", "mypass");
httpRequest.send(null);
I am trying to send a form data using POST method and xmlhttp.open
Please help find the error in my code
function submitChat() {
if (form1.msg.value == '' ) {
alert ('ALL FIELDS ARE MANDATORY');
return;
}
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
var msg = form1.msg.value;
var params = 'msg=helloooooooo';
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
document.getElementById('chatlogs').innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
xmlhttp.open('POST', 'rtest.php?rid=14', true);
xmlhttp.send(params);
}
Everything is fine and it is working with GET method. but POST method is not working. Please help.
I have a form that is supposed to display a feedback message from the server once it is submitted in <div id="resposta"></div>
I can't use JQuery on my page because it is also using Mootools and it's really a mess to avoid the conflicts with those two (I tried all sorts of things I don't to bother you with). Therefore, I must use pure JavaScript here.
Once the form is submitted (after validation) it calls the function getResposta below:
function getXmlHttp() {
var xmlhttp;
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch (E) {
xmlhttp = false;
}
}
if (!xmlhttp && typeof XMLHttpRequest != 'undefined') {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
return xmlhttp;
};
function getResposta(){
var resposta = document.getElementById("resposta");
var request = getXmlHttp();
request.open("POST", "thanks.php", true);
request.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
request.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (request.readyState != 4) return;
if (request.status == 200) {
resposta.innerHTML = '<p>' + request.responseText + '</p>';
} else {
alert("Erro: "+request.statusText);
}
};
}
}
thanks.php:
<?php
echo "thank you";
?>
It seems that thanks.php isn't being called, although the form is correctly filled in and sent to the server.
I've tried typing in the absolute path to the file but it didn't work. So, what is wrong with this code?
Thanks for any help!
I am making a javascript function call on onclick of any checkbox like this:
function getPGCountList(pageNo) {
var url = "someJsp.jsp?" + pageNo;
alert(1);
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
alert(2);
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else {
alert(3);
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
alert(4);
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function () {
alert(5);
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
alert(6);
document.getElementById("searchForPage").innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
};
alert(7);
xmlhttp.open("GET", url, true);
alert(8);
xmlhttp.send();
}
The alert output I am getting is at my hosted site:
1-2-4-7-5-8-5-5-5
But in my local system it is:
1-2-4-7-5-8-5-5-5-6
I need to execute alert 6 also to change the content.
I am not sure where is the problem?
Your code looks fine to me. Check the path to someJsp.jsp
It's obviously not returning a normal response from the ajax call otherwise it would enter your if block and fire alert 6.
Just a thought too, but if you alert xmlhttp.readyState and xmlhttp.status maybe it'll help you find your problem. IF they are undefined, or refer to an object that is undefined, then your new XMLHttp requests failed. IF they give you results, you can see what the responses mean
