javascript - wrong ajax response on nodejs -


i playing ajax on nodejs, can better understand node.

the form (client-side)

<form id="fruitform" method="post" action="/"> <div class="table"> <div class="row"> <div class="cell label">bananas:</div> <div class="cell"><input name="bananas" value="2"/></div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="cell label">apples:</div> <div class="cell"><input name="apples" value="5"/></div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="cell label">cherries:</div> <div class="cell"><input name="cherries" value="20"/></div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="cell label">total:</div> <div id="results" class="cell">0 items</div> </div> </div> <button id="submit" type="button">submit form</button> </form> <div id="results"></div>  <script type="text/javascript">  document.getelementbyid("submit").onclick = handlebuttonpress;  //var httprequest;  function handlebuttonpress(e) {         e.preventdefault();     var formdata = "";     var inputelements = document.getelementsbytagname("input");     (var = 0; < inputelements.length; i++) {         formdata += inputelements[i].name + "=" + inputelements[i].value + "&";          }     formdata = formdata.slice(0, -1);     var hr = new xmlhttprequest();     hr.open("post", "/", true);     hr.setrequestheader("content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");     hr.onreadystatechange = function() {         if(hr.readystate == 4 && hr.status == 200) {             document.getelementbyid("results").innerhtml = hr.responsetext;         }     }     hr.send("formdata="+encodeuricomponent(formdata));  } </script> 

just form fields, each field has number. js creates json structure. formdata contains bananas=2&apples=5&cherries=20.

now, minimalistic server far. works, how can access data came form via request?

also, in client side, dont rrr in "results" div, getting whole html of page again , form again. why that? dont it.

i want understand node , please dont suggest me express, or other modules. want know why simple code wont work

thanks in advance

server

//requires var http = require ('http'); var fs = require ('fs'); var path = require ('path'); var mime = require ('mime');  //set server var server = http.createserver(function (request, response){     var filepath = false;     if (request.url == '/'){         filepath='public/index.html';//default static file     }     else{         filepath='public'+request.url;//set relative file path     }     var abspath = './'+filepath;     servestatic(request, response, cache, abspath);  });  server.listen(4000, function(){     console.log("chatrooms server on port 4000");     } );  //read file  function servestatic(request, response,cache, abspath){     fs.readfile(abspath, function(err, data){             sendfile(request, response, abspath, data);      }) }  //serve file function sendfile(request, response, filepath, filecontents){     response.writehead(         200,{"content-type":mime.lookup(path.basename(filepath))}     );     response.end(filecontents);          formpro(request, response);//now done sending, lets check form }     function formpro(request, response){     if (request.method=="post"){     var rrr="rrr";//insted of rrr, see form again     response.writehead(200,{"content-type":"text/plain"});     response.write(rrr);     response.end();     } } 

edit guess response gets overwritten. code works but, response contains rrr, since httpserver responses last, response transmits page again, @ end. there way independently listen form events, without using httpserver?

i think following code fixes lot of problems. credits , cudos orangedog's answer here, ampersand's answer here , book "node.js in action" mike cantelon, marc harter, t.j. holowaychuk , nathan rajlich, ©2014 manning publications, chapters 4.3 - 4.4
