I am trying to get into jquery/ajax and I can't even believe I can't get past this first test. I'm following an example I found at The Jquery API site and I followed it just about to a T.
I created a local folder on the desktop, and added 2 files.
index.html
and
list1.html.
Index.html:
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="stage">
</div>
<script>
$( "#stage" ).load( "list1.html" );
</script>
</body>
</html>
list1.html
<div id="list">
<li>Test</li>
<li>Foo</li>
<li>Bar</li>
</div>
I was trying for like 15 minutes to run index.html in chrome and nothing displayed (like the jquery wasn't loading correctly). Out of pure curiosity I opened it with firefox and it displayed as expected.. something like this
- Test
- Foo
- Bar
So is this a browser issue? Why does Chrome and IE not show this loaded list, but firefox does? I can't figure out if it's my code or the environment which is infuriating when trying to learn.
Try launching chrome / chromium with
--allow-file-access-from-files
flag setSee How do I make the Google Chrome flag "--allow-file-access-from-files" permanent?
Try
If still not works, check the Network section in the Developer Tools of your browser and see if there are any HTTP or Security errors.
