Having problem with Ajax

TheSealPortalTeam · March 23rd, 2009, 01:06 PM

I have a site that I have been working on recently. I am making a series of widgets for users of this site to add to his/her own site.

The problem I am having is getting my generated code to return any proper value. The error I get in Aptana is: Exception: Guest is not defined File: http://egtworlds.com/!dev/widget/wid...=user-get-name Line: 1 Column: 0

Here is the file and code
http://egtworlds.com/!dev/widget/widgetcode.php?webid=1&type=user-get-name

That generated something like this:

Code:

   
           var http_request991001 = false;
           var elementName991001 = elementName991001;

           document.write("<span name='elementName991001' id='elementName991001' class='egtWorldsWidget'></span>");

           function makeRequest991001(url, parameters) {
              http_request991001 = false;
              
        if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari,...

                http_request991001 = new XMLHttpRequest();

                     if (http_request991001.overrideMimeType) {
                         
                     // set type accordingly to anticipated content type
                        //http_request991001.overrideMimeType('text/xml');
                           http_request991001.overrideMimeType('text/html');
                     }

              } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE

             try {
                    
            http_request991001 = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
         
        } catch (e) {
            
            try {
                
                   http_request991001 = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");

                    } catch (e) {}

             }
          }
     
        if (!http_request991001) {
         alert('Cannot create XMLHTTP instance');
         return false;
      }
      http_request991001.onreadystatechange = alertContents991001;
      http_request991001.open('GET', url + parameters, true);
      http_request991001.send(null);
   }

   function alertContents991001() {
      if (http_request991001.readyState == 4) {
         if (http_request991001.status == 200) {
            //alert(http_request991001.responseText);
            result991001 = http_request991001.responseText;
        //alert(result991001);
            document.getElementById(elementName991001).innerHTML = result991001;            
         } else {
            alert('There was a problem with the request.' + http_request991001.status );
         }
      }
   }
    makeRequest991001('widget.php','?webid=1&type=user-get-name');
document.write('widget.php' + '?webid=1&type=user-get-name');

When you run the ajax call you should get "Guest (Log In)", (or the user name of the person who is logged in at the main site).

Please help me get this working, thanks in advance.

This one was simple, Simply pointed to the wrong file.

Sorry for wasting your time. It took all of 4 hours for me to figure that out.
