Ajax Call Tracking failed attempt

[nghivo]

I attempted to synchronize async Ajax calls using the following JS blocks:
================================================== ==

function getXMLHTTPRequest()
{
  try
  {
    req = window.XMLHttpRequest ? new XMLHttpRequest(): new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }
  catch (err) { }
  return req;
}
 
// update the window status 
function updateStatus()
{
  window.status += '-';
}
 
var httpReq = null;
function loadURL(dest, trigfunc)
{
  // create only when needed
  if (httpReq == null) { alert("Create httpReq"); httpReq = getXMLHTTPRequest(); }
 
  while (1)
  {
    // only sumbit another Ajax calls when the readsyState is 0
    if (httpReq.readyState == 0)
    {
      httpReq.onreadystatechange = trigfunc;
      httpReq.open("GET", dest, true);
      httpReq.send(null);
      break;
    }
    // delay the while loop execution for 500 milisec by updating the status line
    else window.setTimeout("updateStatus()", 500);
  }
}
 
// Ajax triggered function processes different business logic depending on the
// content of responseText
function trigFunc()
{
  if (httpReq.readyState == 4)
  {
    // Process the responseText from httpReq
    ..................
 
    // to reset the httpReq.readyState to 0 so next Ajax calls can be submitted
    httpReq.abort(); 
  }
}
 
function myFunc()
{
  // Test for some condition on the web page
  if (condition is true)
    loadURL(urlOne, trigFunc);
 
  loadURL(urlTwo, trigFunc);
}
 

=============================================

I thought after the loadURL(urlOne, trigFunc) call made, loadURL(urlTwo, trigFunc) call will be made but never submitted until the triggered function from the first call executed and reset the readyState to 0.

While the first call is executed on the server side, window will stay in the loop and update the status.

IT NEVER WORKED. For some reason, the result of second call is lost and window stuck in the forever loop.

Can anyone offer some hint to my problem ? Thanks

since u are trying to run 2 requests at the same time, it won't work. cuz while one is going your overwritting it with another, so cancelling the first one.

your httpReq object holds everything to make the ajax work, so while its running your changing its properties.

instead, create 2 httpReq objects that way they will both run correctly.

But I tried to synch the Ajax request with the while loop
while (1)
{
if (httpReq.readystate == 0)
{ ... }
else { .... setTimeout}
}

what is wrong with this code ? Thanks

The readystate will never return to zero if an open call has been made.
When the state=4, it is done, grab the content and then make another call to .open() and send() and the like.
