Convert prototype ajax to jquery

[Joshua Elkino]

I cant seem to convert this code to work. It worked with prototype, but i want to go jquery.

new Ajax.Updater({success:'mapdiv'},'NearestVenue',
 { evalScripts: true, method: 'get',
 parameters: {lat: center.lat(), lng: center.lng(), radius: radius, n: n}});
 

Thanks

It usually helps to say what specific problems you are having. Please read this for more information.

The general form of a jQuery Ajax call to load the element with id of mapdiv would be:

  $('#mapdiv').load(url,params,callback);
    

What does your code look like? What's happening when you run it?

P.S. 'NearestVenue' doesn't seem like a valid URL.

That is what my code looks like. I'm trying to load an html page in a div using jQuery.

NearestVenue is my servlet. This works like a charm in Prototype, but nothing happens when i attempted to do your suggestion. It calls the servlet but doesn't load the results back into mapdiv.

 
 
$('#mapdiv').load('NearestVenue', 
{ 'lat':center.lat(), 'lng':center.lng(), 'radius':radius, 'n':n }
);

Is the response being returned correctly? I've never had a jQuery load() not function correctly.

Check the response carefully using Firebug.

will check it out. I know i didn't get any errors on the server side.
