I am currently attempting to retrieve information from a remote server on my local machine. The readyState seems to be fine, equal to 4. However, the status is consistently showing as 0 instead of 200. When I click the button, it doesn't return anything.
Here is the code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadXMLDoc()
{
var xmlhttp;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else
{// code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
{
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
{
document.getElementById("myDiv").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
xmlhttp.open("GET",'http://www.spartanbook.com/textbooks_xml.asp?control=campus&campus=45&term=80',true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="myDiv"><h2>Let AJAX change this text</h2></div>
<button type="button" onclick="loadXMLDoc()">Change Content</button>
</body>
</html>
This code snippet is adapted from w3schools with only the URL being replaced. The URL works perfectly fine when inserted into the browser's address bar.
Any suggestions or ideas on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated!
