Could someone please tell me why the following ajax is not working. I have it running on my IIS on my PC:
Html page:
<html>
<head>
<script src="selectcustomer.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Select a Customer:
<select name="customers" onchange="showCustomer(this.value)">
<option value="ALFKI">Alfreds Futterkiste
<option value="NORTS ">North/South
<option value="WOLZA">Wolski Zajazd
</select>
</form>
<p>
<div id="txtHint"><b>Customer info will be listed here.</b></div>
</p>
</body>
</html>
ASP Page
<%
response.expires=-1
sql="SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS WHERE CUSTOMERID="
sql=sql & "'" & request.querystring("q") & "'"
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open(Server.Mappath("/db/northwind.mdb"))
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
rs.Open sql, conn
response.write("<table>")
do until rs.EOF
for each x in rs.Fields
response.write("<tr><td><b>" & x.name & "</b></td>")
response.write("<td>" & x.value & "</td></tr>")
next
rs.MoveNext
loop
response.write("</table>")
%>
Javascript
var xmlHttp
function showCustomer(str)
{
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject();
if (xmlHttp==null)
{
alert ("Your browser does not support AJAX!");
return;
}
var url="getcustomer.asp";
url=url+"?q="+str;
url=url+"&sid="+Math.random();
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged;
xmlHttp.open("GET","getcustomer.asp",true);
xmlHttp.send(null);
}
function stateChanged()
{
if (xmlHttp.readyState==4)
{
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlHttp.responseText;
}
}
function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
var xmlHttp=null;
try
{
// Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari
xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch (e)
{
// Internet Explorer
try
{
xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e)
{
xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
}
return xmlHttp;
}
