RE: Scope for XMLHttpRequest transmited data
Let's try this again... my last message doesnt seem to be coming through.
You can POST a form 'object' which will be in the form scope on the cf page
you are posting to.
I usually keep xmlhttprequests pretty simple and hardly ever post forms
since I USUALLY have to write a non-js version for anything I write with JS.
Keeping it simple I usually just use "GET" to send url vars like so...
xmlHttp.open("GET", "mycfpage.cfm?messageSent=" + messageToSend, true);
xmlHttp.send(null);
so on the mycfpage.cfm, there will be a url variable named 'messageSend'
with the value in 'messageToSend'
If you show more code, I might be able to help a little more.

Subject: Scope for XMLHttpRequest transmited data
Hi,
I'm trying to implement XMLHttpRequest in an application which send data
to a CF template using the post method.
The send function is:
xmlhttp.send("messageSent=" + messageToSend)
The CF template is called, but in which scope will it receive the
messageSent variable?
I've tryied form, url, none, but can't find the content of this variable.
Thanks

This depends on what you put into your open method - you have to specify GET
or POST within there, if I recall correctly. If you want to send URL
parameters, just embed them within the URL you specify within open and
specify GET, then call send.

For the time being, the text is rather small, but I may have much more to pass, including several variables, since I don't expect the session variables to be working because of cookies not being passed. -- ___ REUSE CODE!

Ah ah! I missed this one. Ok, gonna try id.
>>What's the calling function look like? Are you using any of the
xmlHttp "Ajax" libraries?
No, because I don't actually need xml, and I can parse messages by
myself, the only problem is find how to get the text.
Thanks.

Re: Scope for XMLHttpRequest transmited data
it should show up in the form scope. Are you setting the request
header like such:
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
What's the calling function look like? Are you using any of the
xmlHttp "Ajax" libraries?

RE: Scope for XMLHttpRequest transmited data
If you are POSTING a form (for lack of a better word) 'object', it'll be in
the form scope.
It looks like your just trying to send a simple message though? If so just
change your method to 'GET' and you'll find it in the URL scope.
