I'm just trying to learn some ajax so I wrote some code for basically an address book to pull some data. My javascript is rubbish but I cannot seem to understand what I am doing wrong, the error points to function ajaxCall but I see no issue with that function either:
(function () {
var searchForm = document.getElementById("search-form"),
searchField = document.getElementById("q"),
getAllButton = document.getElementById("get-all"),
target = document.getElementById("output");
var addr = {
search: function (event) {
var output = document.getElementById("output");
//start ajax call
ajaxCall("data/contacts.json", output, function (data) {
var searchValue = searchField.value,
addrBook = data.addressBook,
count = addrBook.length,
i;
//stop default behavior
event.preventDefault();
//clear target
target.innerHTML = "";
if (count > 0 && searchValue !== "") {
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
var obj = addrBook[i],
isItFound = obj.name.indexOf(searchValue);
if (isItFound !== -1) {
target.innerHTML += '<p>' + obj.name + ', <a href="mailto:' + obj.email + '">' + obj.email + '</a><p>';
} //end if isItFound
} //end for loop
} //end if count check
}); //end ajax call
}, //end method search
getAllContacts: function () {
var output = document.getElementById("output");
ajaxCall("data/contacts.json", output, function (data) {
var addrBook = data.addressBook,
count = addrBook.length,
i;
target.innerHTML = "";
if (count > 0) {
for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
var obj = addrBook[i];
target.innerHTML += '<p>' + obj.name + ', <a href="mailto:' + obj.email + '">' + obj.email + '</a><p>';
} //end for loop
} //end if
}); //end ajax call
}, //end method getAllContacts
setActiveSection: function () {
this.parentNode.setAttribute("class", "active");
}, //end method setActiveSection
removeActiveSection: function () {
this.parentNode.removeAttribute("class");
}, //end method removeActiveSection
addHoverClass: function () {
searchForm.setAttribute("class", "hovering");
}, //end method addHoverClass
removeHoverClass: function () {
searchForm.removeAttribute("class");
} //end method removeHoverClass
} //end addr object
searchField.addEventListener("keyup", addr.search, false);
searchField.addEventListener("focus", addr.addActiveSection, false);
searchField.addEventListener("blur", addr.removeActiveSection, false);
getAllButton.addEventListener("click", addr.getAllContacts, false);
searchForm.addEventListener("submit", addr.search, false);
searchForm.addEventListener("mouseover", addr.addHoverClass, false);
searchForm.addEventListener("mouseout", addr.removeHoverClass, false);
})(); //end anon function
function getHTTPObject() {
var xhr;
//in most cases this first if is executed
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
//otherwise support crappy IE6 and below
else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
xhr = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}
return xhr;
}
function ajaxCall(dataUrl, outputElement, callback) {
//get ajax object
var request = getHTTPObject();
outputElement.innerHTML = "Loading...";
request.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (request.readyState === 4 && request.status === 200) {
//good ajax response..now save it
var contacts = JSON.parse(request.responseText);
if (typeof callback === "function")
callback(contacts);
} //end upper if
} //end onreadystatechange
request.open("GET", dataUrl, true);
request.send(null);
}
The javascript development tools keeps giving me an unexpected token }
on line 97 but that changes all so often. Am I missing a curly brace somewhere?
You must re-check what your JSON response is, in console, and see if it is invalid. Because at that very 97 line you say that you are parsing a response.
I did put your code to this fiddle and fixed the errors as far as i can. You missed some curly braces and semicolons. Also, you used ajaxCall()
and getHTTPObject()
before they were declared. Check it out. Unfortunately, i dont know if the problem is already fixed, but now the code is valid at least :)
Btw: (in my opinion) such long Code-Samples are always better pasted into a fiddle. Not only because you can focus on the probably messy code here while referring to the complete code sample somewhere else, also because you can make sure that there are no syntax-errors as you can quickly validate you code using jsLint before asking the question here.
