Ajax image reloading

[dimitrij.zub]

Hi. I just wanted to ask, if there is any way to reload or change an image in Ext with AJAX?

Any idea how this has to be done?

Thanks

This is a pure HTML/DOM issue. Nothing to do with whether or not you use Ext in your page.

Im just wondering if there is a way in EXT JS to do it in BG as its done e.g. with DOJO lightbox.

My prob is that changing the src of an image doesnt work if the url is the same but content changed. I need to reload the content in the BG somehow and THEN replace the div.

I hope u understand the problem IE and FFox make me do ugly stuff to reload the image by changing the src attribute

I don't know what you mean. But to change an image, you just change its src attribute to point to the new address and it changes.

No it wont.

Ok i have to explain it better:

Lets imagine u have a user profile image located at: images/deliver?uid=auser

This user (auser) uploads a new profile image. While he is on his own profile form i want to update the image that he has just uploaded without reloading the whole page.

So with fileupload i do register the event, so that once the upload is finished i change the src attribute to:

images/deliver?uid=auser

BUT! hmm its the same Oo so no browser in the world is reloading jack ****..

Then.. I add a Math.random() as token like:

images/deliver?uid=auser&token=0.437563214

That helps for firefox but as IE gets the content type of an image its completely ignoring the parameters (c'mon which image is accepting parameters Oo) and ignores also all the header attributes as private, generated and so on...

So i need a reload a REAL reload of the image although its the same URL.

remove the image and insert a new one then

Per design a rename is not possible.

C'mon animal. Face the problem, dont change it :-P

Avoiding a problem is a way of solving it. I'm all with Animal.

I don't really understand why the posting. We're maintaining a W3 DOM in a browser. We're limited to what that can do, so that's what we do.

Ok. Maybe to help me in the solution: How to background get some content other then text with Ajax?
