Ajax + Python. , how to return response text to Javascript.

[prabhakar]

Hi,
I want to know how can we return reponseText to Javascript from
Python file. I tried to send the data to python file by using GET
method, it is working fine but the thing is how to return the
resposeText (Result) to Javascript.
Here i mentioned my code below,


Test.html:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<form name="name1" method="GET">
Name: <input type="text" id="myname" name="name1" onblur="showHint
()" />
<span id="txtHint"></span>
</form>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Js File:
---------------------------

var xmlhttp;
function showHint()
{
var str=document.getElementById("myname").value;
if (str!=''){
xmlhttp=GetXmlHttpObject();
var url="http://localhost:5656/psltrac_internal/admin/general/
basics/";
url=url+"?q="+str;
xmlhttp.open("GET",url,true);
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged;
xmlhttp.send(null);
}
}

function stateChanged()
{
alert(xmlhttp.readyState)
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4)
{
alert(xmlhttp.responseText);
}
}

function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{
return new XMLHttpRequest();
}
if (window.ActiveXObject)
{
return new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
return null;
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Python Files
-----------------------
if req.method == 'GET':
if str(req.args.get("q"))!='' and str(req.args.get("q"))!
='None':
print "hello"

Here in python file i tried to send the responseText as
print
return
and req.send_header() all the methods failed to return responseText.

This URL (since it's under /admin) should require you to have
TRAC_ADMIN permission . Try to monitor the requests with Firebug and
probably you'll find some `Access denied` HTTP errors

If you are using Trac request objects then you need to write a request
handler (i.e. implement IRequestHandler interface ;o). If you are
using print statement then you should run it as a CGI script outside
Trac address space
