ajax to webservice json passing

[greeshma]

Hi All,
we are in between a new development where front end will a web browser.
server is openedge 10.2B.
from the browser value is passing to webservice as json.
From ajax they are posting to url of webservice which ends in program name wsdxi.p,
which is progress oe 10.2B.
inside that program i have written

{src/web/method/cgidefs.i}
 
if not WEB-CONTEXT:IS-JSON
then do:
 
  output-content-type ("application/json").
  {&OUT} "Input does not appear to be JSON.<br>"
          "Try setting Content-Type to application/json".
  return.
end.

It always returns the error content is not json.
Ajax team told that they are posting json with media type application/json to this url.
Then what may be the problem where should i look.
This is first time i am working with json. Please help me

what do you get if you output the request method from cgi and content-type header?

Can you please tell how to do that
what i have is only WEB-CONTEXT and that is not json/xml then how to check its content

 

[medu]

there are shared variables defined for that in cgidefs.i, you should be able to just display those with {&OUT}

REQUEST_METHOD, CONTENT_TYPE

this is not web-service but webspeed, you'll find more info about how things works here... http://documentation.progress.com/o...oping WebSpeed Applications/01aswsptitle.html

It was a sheer cross domain issue .
When we send the request with method type POST, it will be sending as OPTIONS due to cross domain policy. So in order to resolve this issue, following response headers should be added in the server side.


Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *

Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS

Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type
