I'm having some issues getting AJAX communication working using the Bottle framework. This is my first time using AJAX, so it's likely I just have the basics wrong. Hopefully a Bottle/AJAX guru can point this novice in the right direction. Here is the code I'm using:
#!/usr/bin/env python
from bottle import route, request, run, get
# Form constructor route
@route('/form')
def construct_form():
return '''
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadXMLDoc()
{
xmlhttp = new XMLHTTPRequest();
xmlhttp.onReadyStateChange = function()
{
if(xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200)
{
document.getElementById("responseDiv").innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
xmlhttp.open("GET", "/ajax", true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input name="username" type="text"/>
<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="loadXMLDoc()"/>
</form>
<div id="responseDiv">Change this text to what you type in the box above.</div>
</body>
</html>
'''
# Server response generator
@route('/ajax', method='GET')
def ajaxtest():
inputname = request.forms.username
if inputname:
return 'You typed %s.' % (inputname)
return "You didn't type anything."
run(host = 'localhost', port = '8080')

There are a few issues here.
Also, why aren't you using jQuery to do AJAX? It would make your life much easier. :)
