Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can help me with this as I'm at a loss. I'm trying to simply load a plain text file into a page at runtime using jquery- everything works fine in IE8 (8.0.7600.16385), Firefox 3.6.3, however in Google Chrome 5.0.375.55 the "data" comes back as nothing- i get an empty alert box.
This is the code i'm using;
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Animation Test</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$.ajax({
url: 'level1.txt',
success: function (data) {
alert(data);
},
async: true,
type: 'GET'
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<canvas id="canvas" width="640" height="480">
Unsupported Browser
</canvas>
</body>
</html>
The file I'm loading in is a plain text file containing this;
Central Cavern

(Yes- it's the first level from Manic Miner! I'm making a javascript version using the html5 canvas to get my head around using it.)
I'm at a total loss- it can't be the code because it runs in the other 2 browsers- is there an issue with jquery and this version of Chrome?
Thanks for reading!!
Shaw.
