jQuery AJAX call response
// AJAX form submission
function option_get(button) {
$.post(
'http://domain.com/',
{
'setting1' : $("#setting1").val(),
'setting2' : $("#setting2").val(),
'setting3' : $("#setting3").val(),
'setting4' : $("#setting4").val(),
'setting5' : $("#setting5").val(),
},
function(data, textStatus) {
$('#test').html(data);
},
'text'
);
}
$('#myformButton').click(function() {
option_get();
});
How would I make a jQuery UI dialog box pop open if the server didn't respond?
Also, is there a way to make a dialog box with different text pop open if a particular chunk of text is returned? ie: if the returned text is "Error, data submitted is invalid", I'd like to be able to serve a corresponding dialog box to alert the user to the problem.
I can make a jQuery UI dialog box open on the page no problems at all. It's just figuring out how to make one pop open based on the result of the AJAX call which is confusing me.
Thanks :)

2:42amChristianto says:Hi,
To invoke a function if error happen on ajax request, you can use jQuery.ajaxError API, since the API will run each time there are error on ajax (all ajax request), you should specified your ajax url so only run on specific request error.
var ajax_URL = 'http://domain.com/ajax-url';
$( "div.log" ).ajaxError(function(e, jqxhr, settings, exception) {
if ( settings.url == ajax_URL ) {
// place the error dialog open method here
$('#Error-ID').dialog('open');
}
});
To make different box open when specific text return you just have to match the text in conditional statement inside $.post callback, the text return will be pass to callback (in your code 'data').
// AJAX form submission
function option_get(button) {
$.post(
'http://domain.com/',
{
'setting1' : $("#setting1").val(),
'setting2' : $("#setting2").val(),
'setting3' : $("#setting3").val(),
'setting4' : $("#setting4").val(),
'setting5' : $("#setting5").val(),
},
function(data, textStatus) {
if(data == 'first-text-return'){
// do first function
$('#first-box').dialog('open');
} else if(data == 'second-text-return'){
// do second function
$('#second-box').dialog('open');
}
},
'text'
);
}
$('#myformButton').click(function() {
option_get();
});
Hope this help..- 09/12/11 4:26am
Ryan Hellyer says:Yay! That second one worked perfectly. I now have irritating error messages popping up all over the place :)
I'll have a bash at your other suggestion shortly to see if that works.

2:51amJohn Cotton says:You could use the full ajax call to handle the errors and a switch statement to determine action on success:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'http://domain.com/',
data: {
'setting1' : $("#setting1").val(),
'setting2' : $("#setting2").val(),
'setting3' : $("#setting3").val(),
'setting4' : $("#setting4").val(),
'setting5' : $("#setting5").val(),
},
success: function(data, textStatus) {
switch(data) {
case 'sought-text-1':
// do something
break;
case 'sought-text-2':
// do something else
break;
default:
// do something othewise
break;
}
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
// react to any error
// textStatus could be "null", "timeout", "error", "abort", or "parsererror"
},
dataType: 'html'

Ryan Hellyer says:That's a little beyond the scope of what I'd asked for, so thanks for the extra leads on improving things :)

Ryan Hellyer says:The "success" feature you added turned out to be the solution to another problem I'd been having :)
