A Simple AJAX with JSP example

I have used jQuery AJAX to make AJAX requests.

Check the following code:

<html>
<head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $('#call').click(function ()
            {
                $.ajax({
                    type: "post",
                    url: "testme", //this is my servlet
                    data: "input=" +$('#ip').val()+"&output="+$('#op').val(),
                    success: function(msg){      
                            $('#output').append(msg);
                    }
                });
            });

        });
    </script>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
    <title>JSP Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    input:<input id="ip" type="text" name="" value="" /><br></br>
    output:<input id="op" type="text" name="" value="" /><br></br>
    <input type="button" value="Call Servlet" name="Call Servlet" id="call"/>
    <div id="output"></div>
</body>


You are doing mistake in "configuration_page.jsp" file. here in this file , function loadXMLDoc() 's line number 2 should be like this:

var config=document.getElementsByName('configselect').value;

because you have declared only the name attribute in your <select> tag. So you should get this element by name.

After correcting this, it will run without any JavaScript error
