首先看下看下相對簡單些的--向服務器發送一個包含有名/值對的簡單查詢串，在這種情況下XHP即可以用GET也可以用POST。
GET
function doRequestUsingGET() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
var queryString = " GetAndPostExample? " ;
queryString = queryString + createQueryString()+ " &timeStamp= " + new Date().getTime();
XMLHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
XMLHttp.open( " GET " , queryString, true );
XMLHttp.send( null );
}
POST
function doRequestUsingPOST() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
var url = " GetAndPostExample?timeStamp= " + new Date().getTime();
var queryString = createQueryString();
XMLHttp.open( " POST " , url, true );
XMLHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
XMLHttp.setRequestHeader( " Content-Type " , " application/x-www-form-urlencoded " );
XMLHttp.send(queryString);
}
GET
function doRequestUsingGET() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
var queryString = " GetAndPostExample? " ;
queryString = queryString + createQueryString()+ " &timeStamp= " + new Date().getTime();
XMLHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
XMLHttp.open( " GET " , queryString, true );
XMLHttp.send( null );
}
POST
function doRequestUsingPOST() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
var url = " GetAndPostExample?timeStamp= " + new Date().getTime();
var queryString = createQueryString();
XMLHttp.open( " POST " , url, true );
XMLHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
XMLHttp.setRequestHeader( " Content-Type " , " application/x-www-form-urlencoded " );
XMLHttp.send(queryString);
}
queryString就是名/值對的參數形式了（如name=LiLin&age=23）,在調用OPEN方法中，當請求方法是用POST的時候為了確保服務器知道請求體中有請求參數，需要調用setRequestHeader，將Content-Type值設置為application/x-www-form-urlencoded.當然也可不放在請求體中（那就不要用POST啦！）
此時server處理：
import Java.io. * ;
import Java.Net. * ;
import Javax.servlet. * ;
import Javax.servlet.http. * ;
public class GetAndPostExample extends HttpServlet {
protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, String method)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// Set content type of the response to text/XML
response.setContentType( " text/XML " );
// Get the user's input
String firstName = request.getParameter( " firstName " );
String middleName = request.getParameter( " middleName " );
String birthday = request.getParameter( " birthday " );
// Create the response text
String responseText = " Hello " + firstName + " " + middleName
+ " . Your birthday is " + birthday + " . "
+ " [Method: " + method + " ] " ;
// Write the response back to the browser
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println(responseText);
// Close the writer
out.close();
}
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// Process the request in method processRequest
processRequest(request, response, " GET " );
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// Process the request in method processRequest
processRequest(request, response, " POST " );
}
}
import Java.io. * ;
import Java.Net. * ;
import Javax.servlet. * ;
import Javax.servlet.http. * ;
public class GetAndPostExample extends HttpServlet {
protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, String method)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// Set content type of the response to text/XML
response.setContentType( " text/XML " );
// Get the user's input
String firstName = request.getParameter( " firstName " );
String middleName = request.getParameter( " middleName " );
String birthday = request.getParameter( " birthday " );
// Create the response text
String responseText = " Hello " + firstName + " " + middleName
+ " . Your birthday is " + birthday + " . "
+ " [Method: " + method + " ] " ;
// Write the response back to the browser
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.println(responseText);
// Close the writer
out.close();
}
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// Process the request in method processRequest
processRequest(request, response, " GET " );
}
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
// Process the request in method processRequest
processRequest(request, response, " POST " );
}
}
對get and post方法都用processRequest來處理。
要向服務器發送相關復雜的查詢串，可以將模型變化為XML發送到server 。
clIEnt端:
function createXML() {
var XML = " <pets> " ;
var options = document.getElementById( " petTypes " ).childNodes;
var option = null ;
for ( var i = 0 ; i < options.length; i ++ ) {
option = options[i];
if (option.selected) {
xml = XML + " <type> " + option.value + " <\/type> " ;
}
}
xml = XML + " <\/pets> " ;
return XML;
}
function sendPetTypes() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
var xml = createXML();
var url = " PostingXMLExample?timeStamp= " + new Date().getTime();
XMLHttp.open( " POST " , url, true );
XMLHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
XMLHttp.setRequestHeader( " Content-Type " , " application/x-www-form-urlencoded " );
xmlHttp.send(XML);
}
function createXML() {
var XML = " <pets> " ;
var options = document.getElementById( " petTypes " ).childNodes;
var option = null ;
for ( var i = 0 ; i < options.length; i ++ ) {
option = options[i];
if (option.selected) {
xml = XML + " <type> " + option.value + " <\/type> " ;
}
}
xml = XML + " <\/pets> " ;
return XML;
}
function sendPetTypes() {
createXMLHttpRequest();
var xml = createXML();
var url = " PostingXMLExample?timeStamp= " + new Date().getTime();
XMLHttp.open( " POST " , url, true );
XMLHttp.onreadystatechange = handleStateChange;
XMLHttp.setRequestHeader( " Content-Type " , " application/x-www-form-urlencoded " );
xmlHttp.send(XML);
}
createXML方法無非就是將內容以DOM的樣式存到var xml（變量）裡。有時也可能出現clIEnt直接將本地的一個XML文件直接以DOM（當然可以edit）的樣式傳送.(也放這個時個的Content-Type應該為text/xml了!)這時可能要用到ActiveXObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0")這樣一個控件了。
關於這個控件有個方法可以在各broswer中通用的JS代碼：
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function: CreateXMLDOM
//
// Purpose: Creates a new XML DOM.
//
// Parameters: None
//
// Returns: XMLDOM object OR null
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
function CreateXMLDOM()
{
var oXML = new ActiveXObject(GetXMLParserProgID());
try
{
oXML.setProperty( " AllowXsltScript " , true );
}
catch (err) {}
oXML.async = false ;
oXML.validateOnParse = false ;
oXML.resolveExternals = false ;
oXML.setProperty( " SelectionLanguage " , " XPath " );
try {oXML.setProperty( " NewParser " , true );} catch (e) {}
return oXML;
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function: GetXMLParserProgID
//
// Purpose:
// Gets the ProgID of the highest available version of the
// Microsoft XML parser.
//
// Parameters: None
//
// Returns: String (i.e. "MsXML2.DOMDocument.4.0")
//
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
function GetXMLParserProgID()
{
var MAX_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION = 10 ;
var MIN_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION = 0 ;
var MAX_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION = 9 ;
var MIN_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION = 0 ;
var sProgID = g_sXMLParserProgID;
var bFound = false ;
if ( ! sProgID)
{
// Iterate through possible versions
for ( var nMajor = MAX_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMajor >= MIN_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMajor -- )
{
for ( var nMinor = MAX_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMinor >= MIN_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMinor -- )
{
// Set up the classname for the version that we're trying to instantiate
sProgID = " MsXML2.DOMDocument. " + nMajor + " . " + nMinor;
try
{
if ( new ActiveXObject(sProgID))
{
bFound = true ;
break ;
}
}
catch (e)
{}
}
if (bFound)
{
// store in a global variable to speedup subsequent calls
g_sXMLParserProgID = sProgID;
break ;
}
}
}
return sProgID;
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function: CreateXMLDOM
//
// Purpose: Creates a new XML DOM.
//
// Parameters: None
//
// Returns: XMLDOM object OR null
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
function CreateXMLDOM()
{
var oXML = new ActiveXObject(GetXMLParserProgID());
try
{
oXML.setProperty( " AllowXsltScript " , true );
}
catch (err) {}
oXML.async = false ;
oXML.validateOnParse = false ;
oXML.resolveExternals = false ;
oXML.setProperty( " SelectionLanguage " , " XPath " );
try {oXML.setProperty( " NewParser " , true );} catch (e) {}
return oXML;
}
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
// Function: GetXMLParserProgID
//
// Purpose:
// Gets the ProgID of the highest available version of the
// Microsoft XML parser.
//
// Parameters: None
//
// Returns: String (i.e. "MsXML2.DOMDocument.4.0")
//
// --------------------------------------------------------------------
function GetXMLParserProgID()
{
var MAX_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION = 10 ;
var MIN_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION = 0 ;
var MAX_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION = 9 ;
var MIN_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION = 0 ;
var sProgID = g_sXMLParserProgID;
var bFound = false ;
if ( ! sProgID)
{
// Iterate through possible versions
for ( var nMajor = MAX_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMajor >= MIN_MAJOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMajor -- )
{
for ( var nMinor = MAX_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMinor >= MIN_MINOR_PARSER_VERSION; nMinor -- )
{
// Set up the classname for the version that we're trying to instantiate
sProgID = " MsXML2.DOMDocument. " + nMajor + " . " + nMinor;
try
{
if ( new ActiveXObject(sProgID))
{
bFound = true ;
break ;
}
}
catch (e)
{}
}
if (bFound)
{
// store in a global variable to speedup subsequent calls
g_sXMLParserProgID = sProgID;
break ;
}
}
}
return sProgID;
}
然後直接用其load方法（本地）。
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject( " MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0 " );
xmlDoc.load(local_XML_FileName);
var xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject( " MSXML2.DOMDocument.3.0 " );
xmlDoc.load(local_XML_FileName);
當然也可以直接從server取來（用get方法即可），然後以responseText的方法
xmlht.Open( " GET " ,server_XML_FileName, true );
XMLht.onreadystatechange = stateChange;
XMLht.Send( null );
function handleStateChange() {
if (XMLHttp.readyState == 4 ) {
if (XMLHttp.status == 200 ) {
xmlDoc.loadXML(XMLht.responseText);
}
}
}
xmlht.Open( " GET " ,server_XML_FileName, true );
XMLht.onreadystatechange = stateChange;
XMLht.Send( null );
function handleStateChange() {
if (XMLHttp.readyState == 4 ) {
if (XMLHttp.status == 200 ) {
xmlDoc.loadXML(XMLht.responseText);
}
}
}
實際上xmlDoc.loadXML(xmlht.responseText)所得到的就是一個於內存中的DOM了,而直接用responseXML的話就直接可以解析為一個DOM了!(注意load（FILE）與loadXML（DOM）是不同的)
