thanks for the good tutorial which is easy to understand.
I am trying to delay the unblock for 2 secs after i get the Ajax response. Can you see what i’m doing wrong here..

function sendValue(str){
$.post( “ajaxResponse.do”, { loanAmount: str },
function(data){
if (data.trim() == “false”) {
document.getElementById(‘ajaxMessage’).innerHTML = “Problem Updating the Loan Data”;
setTimeout($.unblockUI, 2000); // this one works fine
} else {
// these two do not work but
setTimeout($.unblockUI, 2000);
setTimeout(location.href=”searchInit.do”, 2000);
}
}, “” );
}

thanks in advance..

Great site – lots of different points of view!…

In addition to calling the post function on document.ready, I added it to the returned function in addition to posting the returned value. When I first did it, I ended up with a thousand calls because it was doubling the calls I think because of the scope…I think…so I added the id of the returned html element to the call. If you have a second, let me know if I’m way off base, or if I’m doing something totally inappropriate…

Thanks again for the post.

One thing I was hoping you could help me on though. I’ve got the original call working, but I need to rebind the ajax call for the data returned in the original call. I’m fairly new to js and specifically jQuery, so any help would be really helpful. Here’s the link. It’s a test page.

Thanks!

but why isn’t it working in my localhost?
Thx for the tuto anyway…
