I'm new to Solr...but this is more of a web programming question...so I can get in on this :).
Your only option to get the data from Solr sans-Javascript, is the use python to pull the results BEFORE the client loads the page. So, if you are asking if you can get AJAX like results (an already loaded page pulling info from your Solr server)...but without using Javascript...no, you cannot do that. You might be able to hack something ugly together using iframes, but trust me, you don't want to. It will look bad, it won't work well, and interacting with data in an iframe is nightmarish. So, basically, if you don't want to use Javascript, your only option is a total page reload every time you need to query Solr (which you then query on the python side.) -----Original Message----- From: Spadez [mailto:james_will...@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2012 11:37 AM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Help! Confused about using Jquery for the Search query - Want to ditch it Thank you for the reply, but I'm afraid I don't understand :( This is how things are setup. On my Python website, I have a keyword and location box. When clicked, it queries the server via a javascript "GET" request, it then sends back the data via Json. I'm saying that I dont want to be reliant on Javascript. So I'm confused about the best way to not only send the request to the Solr server, but also how to receive the data. My guess is that a "GET" request without javascript is the right way to send the request to the Solr server, but then what should Solr be spitting out the other end, just an XML file? Then is the idea that my Python site would receive this XML data and display it on the site? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Help-Confused-about-using-Jquery-for-the-Search-query-Want-to-ditch-it-tp3988123p3988246.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
