msxml4.dll Question

Hello,

I have an javascript function. I am using this function to post the xml to servlet. I installed the MSXML4 and it was working fine. All of sudden today it is giving me the following error message

C:\JScript\myscript.js(7, 2) msxml4.dll: The download of the specified resource has failed.

at this line "xmlhttp.Send(xmldoc);" in the following code.

function PostUser(xmldoc) {
      var xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP.4.0");
      xmlhttp.Open(      "POST",
                  "http://mycompany.com/myServlet",
                  false
              );
      xmlhttp.Send(xmldoc);
      return xmlhttp.responseXML;
}

I need to fix this sooner. because alot of other things are depending on this to work.

I appreciate your help. Please let me know.

thank you,

Can you load http://mycompany.com/myServlet
in the browser?

No. Its a common servlet for the company. I just tried to load it in the browser. It is not showing any thing. This servlet is functioning with the MQ Series. the xml I am sending this servlet, goes to the MQSeries queue and then the servlet will pick up this xml and process it and return the result xml.

thank you,

maybe connecttion speed to the server today is bad, and you don't get readyState:

try this:
=========================================================
<script>
var xmlhttp=null;
function PostUser(xmldoc)
{
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP.4.0");
xmlhttp.Open("POST", "http://mycompany.com/myServlet", false);
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=HandleStateChange;
xmlhttp.Send(xmldoc);

}
function HandleStateChange()
{
alert("xmlhttp.readyState="+xmlhttp.readyState);
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4)
{
alert(xmlhttp.responseXML);
}
}
</script>

Hey devic, could you perhaps look at the last question here too?

I just run the script with what you given, and for alert() I use the following function

function alert(str) {
WScript.Echo(str);
}

I am getting the following error

xmlhttp.readyState=2
xmlhttp.readyState=3
xmlhttp.readyState=4
C:\JScript\myjscript.js(92, 4) Microsoft JScript runtime error: Type mismatch

The type mismatch is in the alert Function. (WScript.Echo(str);)

Is my alert function is wrong ??

please let me know.
thank you,

Michel Plungjan

I would not call it alert. . But anyway try
if (str) WScript.Echo(str);

Hello devic,

Now its working fine. Can you please tell me why my original code is not working. But After I include this

HandleStateChange()

it works fine. What is the coding standard. Do you think I should include the HandleStateChange() in my code.

please let me know.

I appreciate your help

Sorry AlagappanK for commenting in your question: Devic: Yes please JS only. Or vbs I can convert.. But I see now more people are commenting. It was quiet for many days
