I have an xml blog and a javascript file i am trying to use to publish this blog to a website with. I am just testing to see if AJAX is working at all because i have been having issues with this for a day now. Here is the Javascript code: function blog(){var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.onReadyStateChange = function(){if(xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200){var xmldom = xhr.responseXML;alert(xmldom.documentElement);}} xhr.open("GET","blog.xml",true);xhr.send();} Here is the xml code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><rss version="2.0"><channel><item><title>hello</title> <link>www.google.com</link> <description>world</description></item><item><title>hello</title> <link>www.google.com</link> <description>world</description></item><item><title>hello</title> <link>www.google.com</link> <description>world</description></item></channel> </rss> Finally, here is the HTML code: <div id="blog"><h4>News Updates</h4><script type="text/javascript" src="blog.js" async></script><button type="button" onclick="blog()">click me</button></div> I have it set up to where the button in the HTML code has the onclick event listener that calls the javascript "blog()" function. the problem is that i never does anything NO MATTER WHAT I DO. it is always unresponsive. I never get a single alert box no matter what i make the script do inside the onreadystate function.
