The problem occurse when using the adminhtml/loader.js.
Following working code is without the loader:

var reloadurl = ‘getUrl(‘yourController/yourAction/’) ?>’;
new Ajax.Request(reloadurl, {
method: ‘post’,
parameters: “Your parameters go here”,
onComplete: function(transport) {
$(‘output-div’).innerHTML = “”;
$(‘output-div’).innerHTML = transport.responseText;
}
});

I am on magento 1.4.2.0.

Please respond soon with a solution, I will be thankful to you.

parameters:”country_id=” + c_id + “&form_key=” + getFormKey(); ?>,

I have tried to print this form key but nothing is printed, It is blank.
If you can help me I will be thankful.

After following the examples the Ajax request still wasn’t completing for me in Magento 1.5.1.0. The problem turned out to be the inclusion of the adminhtml loader script:

<script src="getJsUrl() ?>mage/adminhtml/loader.js” type=”text/javascript”>

<img src="getUrl()) ?>skin/adminhtml/default/default/images/ajax-loader-tr.gif” alt=”__(‘Loading…’) ?>”/>__(‘Loading…’) ?>

If you experience similar problems, try removing the above lines from your template and change the JS to the following:

var reloadurl = ‘getUrl(‘router/controller/action’) ?>’;

new Ajax.Request(reloadurl, {
method: ‘post’,
parameters: “Params_Here”,
onComplete: function(transport) {

$(‘output-div’).innerHTML = “”;
$(‘output-div’).innerHTML = transport.responseText;

}
});

Is there a simple way to do an Ajax request in adminhtml, without triggering the loader?

I can remove the loader.js, but then it’s removed for all requests. There are only a few non-essential requests I want to make, that should go unnoticed.

Thanks in advance

I have a problem where if I call mage from outside magento i get an execption. Chmod of app/ect/ files I have both at 644

A very simple example will not work
load($productId); //load the product
echo $product->getSku();//get anything you want using the typical syntax
echo $product->getPrice();
echo $product->getShortDescription();

?>

Something like this in your controller:

$block = $this->getLayout()
->createBlock(‘blockname’)->setTemplate(‘blocktemplate.phtml’);

echo $block->renderView();

At the moment I’m building a whole set of modules to bring ajax into a load of bits of Magento, hopefully it’ll be really cool!
