Hello,

I am facing a very weird issue, where, when i try to make a ajax call to submit a form from onload of an HTML file, I always get an error response, and the action url is never hit.

If i use the traditional way of document.form.submit(), then the action url is hit successfully.

Below is the NewFile.html i have created to test ajax submit.


Please help, why it is not submitting the form and hitting the action class. Where am i wrong.
Thanks
Regards
Gagan

Your form action is wrong. You apparently did not put the real form action in your post, so there's no way to tell what's wrong with it.

Sorry for that Bear and thanks for moving it to appropriate forum.

To answer you question, basically i have used tokens in place of the actual server name and port id only for the post.

Since i am using my company's server name and port, so i could not provide those details.

Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks.

Then we cannot help you. The action URL is wrong and if you can't at least show us even its format, then you're pretty much on your own. Can you not even show us a representative format?

Why is there an > after the port? Why are you putting the protocol, domain and port in the URL? Are you submitting to a different server than the web app that generated the page this form is on?

Sorry for the typo there, it is supposed to be without ">". Below is the corrected one:



And yes you were right, the page is on different server and i am trying to make an ajax call to a different server for the backend logic. But the domian remains same, only servers are different.

Thanks.

Open up the JavaScript debugger in your browser and see what it's telling you. It will let you know if the request fails and why.
