[Proto-Scripty] using Ajax.Responders with multiple ajax requests

[gilpster]

Hi everyone, hoping for a gentle ride:

I mostly program actionscript rather than javascript, so although the
syntax is similar i get a little stuck now and then.

I'm using the global ajax.responders method to start an animation
whenever an ajax request is made, and stop the animation upon
completion of the request.  however it does not work with synchronous
requests. The onSuccess method of my ajax requests work as they
should, however the timer continues to animate.  It's as if the
ajax.responders onComplete method isn't called.

any idea what i'm doing wrong?

thx

kenneth


Ajax.Responders.register({
  onCreate: function(){
ajaxPageTimer = new __ajaxTimer('ajaxPageTimerBox',100);
ajaxPageTimer.startAnimation();
  },
  onComplete: function(){
ajaxPageTimer.stopAnimation();
  }
});


var mainPages = Array();
var myRequests = new Object;

function loadPages(pageSource, page){
var url;
var i = 1;
//loadPage();
function loadPage() {
url = incfiles/main + i + .php;
myRequests[i] = new Ajax.Request(url,   {
onSuccess: function(transport){
mainPages[i] = url;
pasteMainContent.defer(transport.responseText, 
i);
i++;
if (imenu.num+1)   loadPage(); //so 
this is faux asyncronous
}
});
}
}

[Proto-Scripty] Re: using Ajax.Responders with multiple ajax requests

Thank you for your help crowder.  When i said It's as if the
ajax.responders onComplete method isn't called. I meant that i really
thought that it wasn't - i.e. just a turn of phrase.

you're right the commented out loadPage request was only commented out
because it wasn't working.

I've changed the code as you suggested and it works fine now.  I
didn't realise all that stuff about writing over the original object
and losing the reference.

Anyway, it's sorted now, thanks for the direction

ajaxPageTimer.stopAnimation();
