I use the following jQuery (1.4) code to test whether cookies are accepted:
$.get("http://localhost:8080/cookietester/cookietester", function(data) {
if (data == "false")
document.write("Activate cookies!");
else if(data == "true")
document.write("ok");
});
But the browser signals that it doesn't stop page loading. Google Chrome 5 doesn't execute the script properly and doesn't display anything.
Is something wrong with this code?
Don't call document.write there.
Calling document.write after the page is finished loading will reset the page, which is not what you want.
Instead, use jQuery to set the text() of an element.
You can't use document.write in that scenario (actually I avoid it whenever possible), instead use .append() to add a message to the <body>, like this:
$.get("http://localhost:8080/cookietester/cookietester", function(data) {
if (data == "false")
$(document.body).append("Activate cookies!");
else if(data == "true")
$(document.body).append("ok");
});
Or, you could just alert it:
$.get("http://localhost:8080/cookietester/cookietester", function(data) {
if (data == "false")
alert("Activate cookies!");
else if(data == "true")
alert("ok");
});
