Hi, Is your intention to show the message 'success' in the results div? In that case you don't need a JSON response.
Also, is jsonData an instance variable of your action class. Otherwise, your json result will simply return an empty json. You can verify the response by opening the response in a text editor when the browser dialog pops-up. If json is what you want, I see two probable causes: 1. The browser is also doing a normal submission - i.e after your ajax post, the form is also getting submitted normally. If you are using firefox with firebug, you can put a breakpoint on the response handler to see if this is the case. ( Also, put an ajax error handler and put a break point there too. Its easier for debugging. ) 2. The response content type is not understood by browser. This can happen if your response has formatting errors. For JSON response, the best possible way in jQuery would be http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.getJSON/ - Rahul From: Ozu Natsu <ozu.na...@gmail.com> To: user@struts.apache.org Date: 26-04-2010 20:02 Subject: JSON Plugin Question Hello, I am trying to use the JSON plug-in for the first time. I have a form that uses jquery to submit to a struts2 action, the action is being invoked properly and I am trying to send result back to call back function, but when result returns the browser prompts me to save or open the result file. I expeced the result to be sent to my call back function, which appears to not be invoked. I am using Stuts 2.1.8.1 What am I doing wrong? My form is submitted as such: function submit(){ $.ajax({ type : "POST", cache : false, url : "./myaction.do", data : $(this).serialize(), success: function(json) { $("#result").html(json); } }); return false; } My action is configured in the struts.xml: <package name="mypkg" namespace="/def" extends="json-default"> <action name="addNote" class="..myClass" method="addData"> <result type="json"> <param name="root">jsonData</param> </result> </action> </package> In the action/method I have a hashmap that I am putting result into: Map<String, String> jsonData= new HashMap<String,String>(); jsonData.put("result", "success"); Any reply appreciated.
