Question

Server interaction with client

Suppose I have an E-comm site where there are pics of potatoes and tomatoes,with their prices listed beneath them. These prices are live prices, i.e. they need to be pulled off a server - how would I pull this off?

Also, is there any Animate equivalent to what Generator was for Flash back in the old days? What's a good book that contains info about it, and programming it and so on?

Thanks.

    Hi.

    You can use an XML HttpRequest.

    Say for example you want to get some quiz/trivia questions from a database like Open Trivia DB. You could write:

    var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhttp.onreadystatechange = function ()
    {
        if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200)
            console.log(xhttp.responseText);
    };
    xhttp.open("GET", "https://opentdb.com/api.php?amount=10", true);
    xhttp.send();

    You can host your own files as well, of course.

    I hope this helps.

    Regards,

    JC
