I am new to jQuery and Servlets. Working on a school project and now I am stuck at this problem.
I have a navigation bar on left with anchor tags like this in my proj3.html file.
<ul class="nav nav-list">
<li class="nav-header">Labels</li>
<li><a href="" class="labels">Sony</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="labels">Spinnin</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="labels">BMG</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="labels">Ultra</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="labels">Universal</a></li>
<li class="nav-header">Genere</li>
<li><a href="" class="genere">Rock</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="genere">Alternative Rock</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="genere">Pop</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="genere">EDM</a></li>
<li><a href="" class="genere">Hip-Hop</a></li>
</ul>
Inside Javascript i have this
$('a.labels').on('click',function(e){
var url = "http://example.edu/servlet/SampleQuery";
$.get(url);
e.preventDefault();
}
}
Inside my servlet SampleQuery.java I read from DB and forward to a JSP like this
RequestDispatcher dispatcher = null;
dispatcher = request.getRequestDispatcher("/jsp/DisplayVendor.jsp");
dispatcher.forward(request, response);
When I click on any of the anchor tags $.get
is hit, but my JSP page is not getting displayed. Weird thing is if I check the firebug for network traffic I see my AJAX call going through and I can even see DisplayVendor.jsp page in response. But its not getting displayed.
Can someone please point out if I am making any mistake.
Thanks
You call $.get(url)
, but don't do anything with the response. Change it to
$.get(url, function(data) {
alert('here is the response data : ' + data);
});
to show what you received.
To update the contents of the div with id "dynamicallyLoadedDiv" with the HTML returned by the AJAX call, for example, use
$.get(url, function(data) {
$('#dynamicallyLoadedDiv').html(data);
});
or simply
$('#dynamicallyLoadedDiv').load(url);
Read the documentation for more information.
Note that if your goal is to replace the whole page content, I don't really seee the point of making an AJAX request. Use a simple hyperlink in that case.
