Getting 404 for an external Javascript file in HTML on XAMPP
Question
This is my first post on Stackoverflow. Please guide if I miss something. I'm trying to do HTML5 development with external javascript file and testing the same on XAMPP 3.2.1 server. I have stored "HF_Chapter10_WebWorkers_Example1" in "C:\\xampp\\htdocs" of XAMPP installation and the Javascript file "manager.js" is also residing in the same folder. The 'manager.js' internally creates a worker thread and invokes the same.
Issue: When I'm opening the HTML file in Google Chrome, I see 404 (in Dev chrome tools) stating the server can't find the external Javascript file referenced. Also, I see that the server is load the javascript file as 'text/HTML' instead of 'text/javascript'. I have tried appending type='text/javascript' in the call to the javascript but that didn't help either. I'm trying to understand the reason of this issue.
This is what goes into the HTML file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="generator" content="CoffeeCup HTML Editor (www.coffeecup.com)">
<meta name="dcterms.created" content="Wed, 08 Jan 2014 05:07:11 GMT">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<title>HF_Chapter10_WebWork_Example1</title>
<LINK REL="stylesheet" HREF="theme.css" TYPE="text/css">
<script type="text/javascript" src="manager.js"> </script>
</head>
<body>
<p id="output"> ![enter image description here][1]</p>
</body>
</html>
This is what goes into the javascript file 'manager.js'
window.onload = function() {
//create the worker thread
var worker = new Worker("worker.js");
//send the message to the worker thread
worker.postMessage("ping");
//create an event listener to act on the messages arriving from the worker thread
worker.onmessage = function(event) {
var message = "Worker says" + event.data;
document.getElementById("p").innerhHTML = message;
}
}
This is what goes into the worker.js file:
onmessage = pingPong;
function pingPong(event) {
//based on the type of data, respond back with the 'postMessage'.
//Note that the message will go to the main javascript handler
if (event.data == "ping") {
postMessage("pong");
}
}
