This is continuation to Part 56. Please watch Part 56 before proceeding. Syntax $.get( url [, data ] [, success ] [, dataType ] ) dataType parameter specifies the type of data expected from the server. The dataType can be xml, json, script, or html. By default jQuery makes an intelligent guess. The following steps modify the example we worked with in Part 56, so that HtmlPage1.html will be able to retrieve and display JSON data from the server. Replace < with LESSTHAN symbol and > with GREATERTHAN symbol Step 1 : Modify GetHelpText.aspx to return JSON data. Remove the following div element from GetHelpText.aspx. <div id="divResult" runat="server"></div> Step 2 : Modify the code in GetHelpText.aspx.cs as shown below. using System; using System.Configuration; using System.Data; using System.Data.SqlClient; using System.Web.Script.Serialization; namespace Demo { public partial class GetHelpText : System.Web.UI.Page { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { JavaScriptSerializer js = new JavaScriptSerializer(); string JSONString = js.Serialize(GetHelpTextByKey(Request["HelpTextKey"])); Response.Write(JSONString); } private HelpText GetHelpTextByKey(string key) { HelpText helpText = new HelpText(); string cs = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["DBCS"].ConnectionString; using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(cs)) { SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("spGetHelpTextByKey", con); cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter parameter = new SqlParameter("@HelpTextKey", key); cmd.Parameters.Add(parameter); con.Open(); helpText.Text = cmd.ExecuteScalar().ToString(); helpText.Key = key; } return helpText; } } public class HelpText { public string Key { get; set; } public string Text { get; set; } } } Step 3 : Modify the jQuery code in HtmlPage1.html as shown below $(document).ready(function () { var textBoxes = $('input[type="text"]'); textBoxes.focus(function () { var helpDiv = $(this).attr('id'); $.get('GetHelpText.aspx', { HelpTextKey: helpDiv }, function (response) { $('#' + helpDiv + 'HelpDiv').html(response.Text); }, 'json'); }); textBoxes.blur(function () { var helpDiv = $(this).attr('id') + 'HelpDiv'; $('#' + helpDiv).html(''); }); });
