Hello,
I'm having an issue with getting embedded javascript code to actually
run when loaded via an Ajax.Request() call and the callback function
inserts the generated HTML and js code to my current page. It seems
that the javascript code is not properly parsing.
For example, I'm using the following function showinfo() to return
some html code.
function showInfo(go_url){
if($("display_area") && go_url){
var xmlHttp= new Ajax.Request(go_url, {method: "post",
parameters: Form.serialize(document.forms[0]),
onComplete:function(){
if(xmlHttp.responseIsFailure()) {
var sts = xmlHttp.transport.status ? xmlHttp.
transport.status : "undefined";
$("debug_msg").value=
"XMlHttpRequest returned response status "+sts;
document.getElementById("debug_msg").innerHTML=
"HTTP response and server information; "+
"response status="+
xmlHttp.transport.status;
} else {
document.getElementById("display_area").innerHTML
=xmlHttp.transport.responseText;
document.getElementById("debug_msg").innerHTML=
"HTTP response and server information; "+
"response status="+ xmlHttp.transport.status;
}
}});
}
}
Now, in the line
document.getElementById("display_area").innerHTML=xmlHttp.transport.responseText;
Generated by the link saved in go_url, I have html code that I derived
from the examples in ajax_inplaceeditor_test.html to appear in between
my <div id="display_area"> tags. The inplace editing functionality
works when I run the go_url link on its own, but when I embed it in
the manner above, the html properly appears, but the code does not
run.
Am I doing the right thing to use innerHTML?
