Ajax POST does not work

[awrigh2]

I am passing a parameter to the server using ajax, and the type: GET works, but the type: POST does not work.

Could you attach a test case where this isn't working for you?

4 months, enough for such a generic ticket.

Using jQuery to access a JSP page sending two parameters as a JSON object. Parameters are null when retrieved.

Example: (jQuery code) $.get("my_page.jsp", {

parmPolVerPlanLocNo: polVerPlanLocNo, parmPolItemInsNo: polItemInsNo

}, function(json){

my func

});

JSP code to retrieve: Integer polVerPlanLocNo = new Integer(request.getParameter("parmPolVerPlanLocNo")); Integer polItemInsNo = new Integer(request.getParameter("parmPolItemInsNo"));

The above gives me a parse int error because variables are NULL

Please note that this did not fail from the very beginning. It started to die later on. Also, it does seem to work depending on the server it is on. We have a few local servers and one server will work fine while the next will fail on the code. Changing to $.get() fixes the problem immediately. I wish I could show you live code, but this is for an internal product.

You say $.get works, and in the example, you use $.get...

The fact is, that both $.post and $.get do work. If you're experimenting a problem, then something special must be happening.

We can't do much with the info you provide.

Let me know if you can add something else, or then tell me and I'll close this.

I've assumed you've used $.ajax as well as the wrapper $.post ?

$.ajax({

type: POST, url : "my_page.jsp", dataType : 'json', data: {parmPolVerPlanLocNo: polVerPlanLocNo,

parmPolItemInsNo: polItemInsNo},

success: function (json) {

}

});
