How to Create and handling AJAX requests in JavaScript programming.mp4

In JavaScript, AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) allows you to make HTTP requests to a server without refreshing the web page. This makes it ideal for building dynamic, interactive web applications. Below is a guide on how to create and handle AJAX requests using JavaScript.

1. Using XMLHttpRequest

The XMLHttpRequest object is the traditional way to send AJAX requests. Here's how to create and handle AJAX requests with it:

Basic Steps to Create and Handle an AJAX Request:

1. Create an instance of XMLHttpRequest.
2. Open the request by specifying the HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.) and the URL.
3. Send the request.
4. Handle the response using the onreadystatechange event or load event.

Example: Sending a GET request

javascript
function sendAJAXRequest() {
    // 1. Create a new XMLHttpRequest object
    var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    
    // 2. Initialize the request (GET method, URL)
    xhr.open('GET', 'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts', true);
    
    // 3. Set up a function to handle the response
    xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
        if (xhr.readyState === 4 && xhr.status === 200) {
            // The request is complete and successful (status 200)
            var response = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
            console.log(response);  // Handle the data here
        }
    };
    
    // 4. Send the request
    xhr.send();
