Hi

got solution for the problem.,

tried using div tag from the suggestion gave by "gits" in another forum.,

But when the page loads i get an error (only in ie which runs well in firefox)

Error: 'document.getEl ementById(...)' is null or not an object.

can u give me some t ips.,

thanks

I assume the error occurs on the following line:

obj = document.getElementById( "ajax" );

Try using a different ID in case IE has a problem with the "ajax" id.

Failing that, is it possible that you have a test page?

Hi
sorry i couldnt send u a test page.,

Can u tell me whether ajax can be run in ie5 and ie6.,

coz my ajax script is not running in an system which has ie6 installed., i hav tried even by enabling most of the options in browser settings.,

here is my javascript coding

function httprequest()
{
 
  var xmlhttp;
  try
 {
   xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
 }
  catch(e)
 {
    try
   {
    xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
   }
   catch(e)
   { 
     try
    {
         xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("MICROSOFT.XMLHTTP")
    }
     catch(e)
    {
     alert("ur browser doesnot support Ajax");
     return false;
    }
   }
 
 }
------------------------------
}

when i click on the ajax link i got an alert message "ur browser doesnot support Ajax" which i hav given in the script.,

Thanks

Yes, it can. You may need to watch the case - see if this link helps.

Hi

probably i had also used the same script in my page., but when i click the ajax link in my page., it displays the alert message "ur browser does not support ajax"

Here is my code:

 
<script type="text/javascript">
var id;
var action;
function httprequest(id,action)
{
 
var xmlhttp;
try
{
 xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch(e)
{
  try
  {
  xmlhttp=new Activexobject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
  }
  catch(e)
  { 
    try
    {
    xmlhttp=new Activexobject("MICROSOFT.XMLHTTP")
    }
    catch(e)
    {
     alert("ur browser doesnot support Ajax");
     return false;
    }
  }
 
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
{ 
 if(xmlhttp.readyState==4)
 { 
 
   document.getElementById("ajax").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
 
 }
}
 
xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax.php?id="+id+"&action="+action,true);
xmlhttp.send(null);
}
 
function hidden(id,action)
{
 httprequest(id,action)
}
</script>
 

<div id="ajax">
<table >
<tr>
<td>------Place where i fetch data from another page and display---------</td>
<td><a onclick="hidden('10','next')">next</a></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
 

and in my ajax.php page i hav displayed datas fetched from database which are above the id(10) i sent on onclick event;

but when i click the ajax(next) link., i get an alert message
"ur browser doesnot support Ajax"
in ie5 and ie6;
but its working well with ie7 and firefox.,

and i had even tried changing the id name from "ajax" to someother string., but nothing happened.,

could u help me to get rid of the problem.,

kind regards
vijay

You've made the same mistake. Remember JavaScript is case-sensitive.

Activexobject should be ActiveXObject.

What I suggest is that you copy the code from the linked page and then try that.

The reason why it works in IE7/Firefox is that they both support the XMLHttpRequest object.

Yes, you've got some errors. Double click the error icon and see what the error is.
