Thanks for this info. Unfortunately, I'm getting a JS error "$.ajaxError is
not a function". My code is below. Is that the right syntax or do I need to
be using a more current version of jQuery?
$.ajaxError(function(request, settings){
alert('An error has occurred!');
});
function loadModuleHTML(p_id, p_moduleIndex) {
$.post('get_file_contents.php',
{mod_index:p_moduleIndex},
function(data){
$("#"+p_id).empty().append('<div
class="sortListInner">'+data+'</div>');
});
}
$(function(){
loadModuleHTML('li0',0);
});
Thanks, - Dave
