Hi Ajax Experts! I'm posed with a different kind of issue using XMLHttpRequest. I have an html page with a javascript is hooked on with "onload" event. A javascript method "post_to_url()" is invoked on page load. My code goes as follows... <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function post_to_url() { //var poststr = "j_user=" + escape(encodeURI(username)) +"&j_password=" + escape(encodeURI(document.getElementById("j_password").value)); //var poststr = "j_user=" + escape(encodeURIComponent("tester")) +"&j_password=" + escape(encodeURIComponent("password")); var poststr = "j_user=tester&j_password=password"; postRequestToEP('http://myportalserver.com:50000/irj/portal', poststr); } function postRequestToEP(url, parameters) { http_request = false; if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE try { http_request = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP"); } catch (e) { try { http_request = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); //IE5, IE6 } catch (e) { http_request = false; } } } if (!http_request && window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari,... try { http_request = new XMLHttpRequest(); if (http_request.overrideMimeType) { // set type accordingly to anticipated content type //http_request.overrideMimeType('text/xml'); http_request.overrideMimeType('text/html'); } } catch(e) { http_request = false; } } if (!http_request) { alert("Cannot create XMLHTTP instance"); return false; } http_request.onreadystatechange = WPSLogin; //http_request.open("GET", url+"?"+parameters, true); http_request.open("POST", url, true); http_request.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); http_request.setRequestHeader("Content-length", parameters.length); http_request.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close"); http_request.send(parameters); //http_request.send(); } function WPSLogin() { if (http_request.readyState == 4) { if (http_request.status == 200) { alert('Successfully logged in to Portal Server!'); } else { alert('Problem in login to Portal Server!'); } } } </script> </head> <body onload='post_to_url()'> Test </body> </html> The code executes fine on Internet Explorer 8. But on Firefox/IE6/IE7, I am getting the value of http_request.status = 0, though there is no issue in connecting to the server. Please refer to attached image for clarity. Upon a bit of googling, I found out that this can occur in case the sites are hosted in different domain due to "Same Domain Policy". But I guess, this is not relevant in my case. Can anyone please help me out figuring out the issue in my code. Look forward to all your valuable inputs. Best regards, Sourish [attachment deleted by admin]
