Question

I’m making an ajax request to call php file with variable. But it is not getting the value. I’ve called $("#data").load("myfile.php?filename=file.xml")

in myfile.php

$(window).load(function(){
 $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "../files<?php echo $_GET['filename']; ?>",
        dataType: "xml",
        success: function(dataXML) {
            XML = dataXML;
            runNow();
        }

    });

But this two level ajax is request is not working. I’ve tried finding it with network debugger of browser, but this request is not made.

To simplify there is a page which is making the ajax request and loads its data to one div. That div has a <script> </script> . And inside it there is one another ajax request.

This second ajax request is not working and not getting the php variable value with $_GET['filename'].

Answer 1

I don’t believe a load event is called on window when the first AJAX call loads the new script element onto the page, so the inserted AJAX javascript is not being triggered.

Try removing the $(window).load wrapper and just directly call $.ajax()
