$.post()

[wiss.dev]

im using $.post() which returns html script into a dialog, it works on my dev machine local host server, but hangs on the remote server!! i dont understand why, since its the same js library source, any ideas ??

1 more thing, i noticed that window.location.href doesnt work on IE, any equivalent function to navigate which work on all browsers

Is it the same browser ?

Did you tried debugging it ? Using Google Chrome's "Javascript Console" or using "Firebug" for Firefox.

[wiss.dev]

yes,same browser and the debugger doesn't show any errors, plus would not fall over on the dev environment if there was any errors

Show your code.

[wiss.dev]

<script  type="text/javascript">

$.post('admin/checkMultipleAccounts.php',{},
		function(data){sCompanies=jQuery.trim(data); // returns a table containing companies
			$('#dialog').attr('title','Select a company.').html(sCompanies)
		           .dialog( 
								{
									buttons:{ 'Cancel':function(){ $(this).dialog('close');window.location.href="logout.php";}} ,
									draggable:false,resizable:false,modal:true, 
								}	
							);
						}
				);



</script>

i did a direct url to checkMultipleAccounts.php and had no issues, and just for testing i put an alert() in the call back function,did not pop up what tells me it is hanging on the server side, i also tried .error() method, but this caused in error in js consol : error() is not a method

im lost

Although it doesn't appear so in your code, are you trying to post to a page on a different domain?

[wiss.dev]

no, same domain

[tr333]

Have you tried checking the access/error logs for the web server on the remote server?

[Nightwalker83]

yes,same browser and the debugger doesn't show any errors, plus would not fall over on the dev environment if there was any errors

Not sure if this has anything to do with it but following on what akhileshbc said is it the same version of the browser?

If this error means that surely there is some error in getting data from the checkMultipleAccounts.php page.

Did the Request hit the checkMultipleAccounts.php ,if you attach the debugger for the PHP ?

Try this one check if you get any error

<script  type="text/javascript">


$(document).ajaxError(function(e, xhr, settings, exception) {
alert('error in: ' + settings.url + ' \n'+'error:\n' + xhr.responseText );
}); 

$.post('admin/checkMultipleAccounts.php',{},
		function(data){sCompanies=jQuery.trim(data); // returns a table containing companies
			$('#dialog').attr('title','Select a company.').html(sCompanies)
		           .dialog( 
								{
									buttons:{ 'Cancel':function(){ $(this).dialog('close');window.location.href="logout.php";}} ,
									draggable:false,resizable:false,modal:true, 
								}	
							);
						}
				);



</script>

[wiss.dev]

popped a message box
error in: admin/checkMultiplrCompanies.php
error :
so no error returned, and as i mentioned in previous post,if i url checkMultipleCompanies.php it displays the desired html with no errors, also it works like treat on the dev localHost using the same browser(google chrome)
