The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

How to redirect in ajax?

Asked by georgep7 in Asynchronous Javascript and XML (AJAX), JavaScript

Hi everyone, I have been trying to find an answer to this, searching all over the web, but no luck. I have created a very simple test page to show what I mean and hopefully someone can explain what I need to do to make this work. Simply put, I have a page that has an onclick href that sends information to a DIV on the page. I wish to simply have this redirect to another page, but instead it shows the response.redirect inside the DIV. How do I get it to redirect from within the DIV to a whole new web page? Here is the code:

The main page: formpage.asp

<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Testing...</title>
<script src="scripts.js"></script>
</head>
<body>

<table><tr><td>
<a href="#null" onclick="calculate()"/>show result</a>
</td>
<td>

</td></tr></table>
<div id="resultssection" style="display:none;"></div>
</body>
</html>

The script.js file:

var xmlHttp

function calculate()
{
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject();
if (xmlHttp==null)
  {
  alert ("Your browser does not support AJAX!");
  return;
  }
var url="formpageshowgoodies.asp";
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged;
xmlHttp.open("GET",url,true);
showHide();
xmlHttp.send(null);
}

function showHide()
{

if (document.getElementById("resultssection").style.display == 'none')
{
document.getElementById("resultssection").style.display = '';
}
else
{
document.getElementById("resultssection").style.display = 'none';
}
}

function stateChanged()
{
if (xmlHttp.readyState==4)
{
document.getElementById("resultssection").innerHTML=xmlHttp.responseText;
document.getElementById("resultssection").style.display = '';
}
}


function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
var xmlHttp=null;
try
  {
  xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
catch (e)
  {
  try
    {
    xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
    }
  catch (e)
    {
    xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
    }
  }
return xmlHttp;
}

The formpageshowgoodies.asp page:

<%response.redirect "formpage2.asp"%>

Can someone show a simple way to do this? I know the above looks like it's not required to use ajax, but what I am trying to do is more complex (mutiple onclick events, divs, etc) - I've just simplified it here to get the idea across.
