Ajax Tutorial
 Building response XML message in server
  << Prev: Example for parsing XML message Next: Parsing XML message and update to DOM >>

Building response XML message in server
A Java Servlet is used to check the request from the client as in the first example.  But this servlet is used in the POST method instead of the GET method.

The doPost() method of the servlet is to examine request in POST HTTP method from client,it looks like:


public void doPost(HttpServletRequest oRequest,HttpServletResponse oResponse) throws IOException,ServerException
             {
                          // Get category name passed by client
                          String strCategory = oRequest.getParameter("category")

                          // Get output writer
                          PrintWriter oWriter = oResponse.getWriter();

                          // Set response in XML format
                          oResponse.setContentType("text/xml");
                          oResponse.setHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");

                           // Out XML message to client
                           oWriter.print(getXMLResponseMessage(strCategory));               
             }


This code shows that when each POST request is caught,the servlet parses to get value of the category passed by the client and will look up for the list of books based on the given category,then respond it.


 With XML message,we notice in:

·Set response message as XML format instead of  TEXT as in the first example
·Build response XML message


The getXMLResponseMessage(strCategory) method is to build XML message containing a suggestion and a list of related books. It returns the message with a structure as below. In there,the suggestion node contains suggested categories and the books node contains a list of books it has.   


<book_response>
             <suggestion></suggestion>
             <books>
                           <book></book>
                           <book></book>
                           <book></book>
              </books>


</book_response>
