Help with jquery GET method

Question

Hi guys,

I'm very very new to this ... so, here's my newbie question :D What's wrong with my code snippet below? I'm not getting any response from that URL. It should return the result in plain text ... am I doing this wrongly?

                $.get('http://is.gd/api.php?longurl=http://www.google.com.my/', function(data) {
                  alert(data);
                },"text");

Answer 1

You can't do AJAX requests if http://is.gd/ is not your server. AJAX requests works only with same domain where your code is.

Answer 2

Try this,

Give the relative path.

e.g. $.get('ajax/test.html', function(data) { alert('Load was performed.'); });

Answer 3

doing a quick test but try this:

$.get('/api.php?longurl=http://www.google.com.my/', 
        function(data)
        { 
            alert(data); 
    }
    ); 

Wont let you connect to a remote server, local only. also removed the ","text");" which you had at the end.
