W3Schools Ajax time example doesn't work in my system

Hello,

This is an example from w3schools. I tried to execute this in my system, but it does not work.

My file is testajax.html

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 text
 
<html>

<body>
 
<script type="text/javascript">

function ajaxFunction()

{

var xmlHttp;

try

  {

  // Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari

  xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();

  }

catch (e)

  {

  // Internet Explorer

  try

    {

    xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");

    }

  catch (e)

    {

    try

      {

      xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");

      }

    catch (e)

      {

      alert("Your browser does not support AJAX!");

      return false;

      }

    }

  }

  xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=function()

    {

    if(xmlHttp.readyState==4)

      {

      document.myForm.time.value=xmlHttp.responseText;

      }

    }

  xmlHttp.open("GET","time.asp",true);

  xmlHttp.send(null);

  }

</script>
 
<form name="myForm">

Name: <input type="text" onkeyup="ajaxFunction();" name="username" />

Time: <input type="text" name="time" />

</form>
 
</body>

</html>

Have you checked that the ASP file returns the correct output? Test by running the ASP file without using Ajax.

I've split this from the other thread since it's a different problem.

I've deleted some useless posts that appeared under your name. Can you confirm if that was someone else posting?

You are checking only readyState but not the statusCode as well.
Concentrate on Acoder's point.
See don't you get any updated value into your targeted Text Box(time)?
