I am having a prob for ajax request in joomla using mootools.
var url = '<?php echo JURI::base();?>index.php?option=com_test&task=getselectmode&selectedid='+$('parent_question').value;
var params ={method: 'post',update:'test'};
var myAjax = new Ajax(url, params);
myAjax.request();
My prob is that, is there any to set onComplete event of the ajax request.
i have set it as below on above code but nothing happen.
onComplete: function(response) { alert('Response: ' + response); }
Can you please provide full code of how to use ajax using mootools 1.1 ??
Thanks in advance
just add the onComplete to the params object, no need to add the event seaprately. also, you can use this.response.text. it can all look a bit more compacted - depends on your preference. if you don't plan on reusing the object, just call it direct and don't assign it to a variable either:
new Ajax(url, {
method: "get",
update: $("someelement"),
onComplete: function() {
alert(this.response.text);
}
}).request();
if you do something with the response text, you may want to remove the update: bit. if you need to evaluate the response (as javascript), use evalResponse: true instead of eval(this.response.text);. also handy - evalScripts: true|false if you want to do something from the server side along with the response.
This should work:
var ajaxObj = new Ajax ('index.php?option=com_yourcomponent&view=yourview&format=raw', {
method: "get"
});
ajaxObj.addEvent('onComplete', function (data) {
// data is the response text
// use as desired
});
// this initiates the call
ajaxObj.request();
maybe:
var a = new Ajax( url, {
method: 'post',
data: { parfoto: foto },
onComplete: function( response ){
..........
}
}).request();
