jquery ajax http status code

Question

I am changing my scripts to jquery at the moment. This is my old javascript:

var request = (window.XMLHttpRequest) ? new XMLHttpRequest() : (window.ActiveXOb         


        

Answer 1

try this:

request = $.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: url,
    data: data,
    statusCode: {
      200: function() {
        doSomething();
       },
      304:function(){
        doSomethingElse();
       }
     }
});

or:

request = $.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: url,
    data: data,
    complete: function(e, xhr, settings){
       if(e.status === 200){

       }else if(e.status === 304){

       }else{

       }
    }
});

Answer 2

You need to just bind this request to an event like button click or something Like

$('#btn').click({function(){
$.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: url,
    data: data,
    success: updatePage
});
});

You dont need to really keep this request against a variable as jQuery ajax has a success callback which will help you to execute post success code
