Simple ajax question

Sabastion · 01-31-2012, 02:12 AM

Ok so I fixed one problem I was having with ajax. I got IE to actually show the text on a page by putting the <html> tags around the items.

I was trying to make the interface better but I can not get it to show a table. Every time I try to get the second page to show a table IE crashes the ajax command an nothing happens.

Maby I am over thinking this.

Start page
Asks for the item the person would like to see with a fetch button.
Click the fetch button.
Ajax calls ITEMS.asp to get the item information.
ITEMS.asp returns a table with the information.

For some reason if I do not format the info ITEMS.asp will work fine with IE but if I try to use <table> it crashes. Anyone know what I am doing wrong here?

Does your table have a proper structure? IE is very sensitive about that

Code:

<table>
 <thead>
  <tr><th></th>...</tr>
  ...
 </thead>
 <tbody>
  <tr><td></td>...</tr>
  ...
 </tbody>
</table>

with thead being optional, tbody is mandatory!

Yes that was the answer. IE is way to strict although its probably better code now. Thanks for the help Devnull69. Ill post this in another post on here. someone is asking for this.
