Beacon API - Web APIs
requests are guaranteed to be initiated before a page is unloaded and they are run to completion, without requiring a blocking request (for example xmlhttprequest).
... user agents will typically ignore asynchronous xmlhttprequests made in an unload handler.
... to solve this problem, analytics and diagnostics code will typically make a synchronous xmlhttprequest in an unload or beforeunload handler to submit the data.

ensuring that data has been sent during the unloading of a document has traditionally been difficult, because user agents typically ignore asynchronous xmlhttprequests made in an unload handler.

ProgressEvent - Web APIs
the progressevent interface represents events measuring progress of an underlying process, like an http request (for an xmlhttprequest, or the loading of the underlying resource of an <img>, <audio>, <video>, <style> or <link>).

FormDataEvent - Web APIs
this allows a formdata object to be quickly obtained in response to a formdata event firing, rather than needing to put it together yourself when you wish to submit form data via a method like xmlhttprequest (see using formdata objects).

Resource Timing API - Web APIs
an application can use the timing metrics to determine, for example, the length of time it takes to load a specific resource, such as an xmlhttprequest, <svg>, image, or script.
... the initiatortype property returns the type of resource that initiated the performance entry such as "css" for a css resource, "xmlhttprequest" for an xmlhttprequest and "img" for an image (such as a jpeg).
Using Service Workers - Web APIs
(see our promises test example for the source code, or look at it running live.) note: a real service worker implementation would use caching and onfetch rather than the xmlhttprequest api.
... const imgload = (url) => { return new promise((resolve, reject) => { var request = new xmlhttprequest(); request.open('get', url); request.responsetype = 'blob'; request.onload = () => { if (request.status == 200) { resolve(request.response); } else { reject(error('image didn\'t load successfully; error code:' + request.statustext)); } }; request.onerror = () => { reject(error('there was a network error.')); }; request.send(); }); } we return a new promise using the promise() constructor, which takes as an argument a callback function with resolve and reject parameters.

DOM onevent handlers - Developer guides
non-element objects event handlers can also be set with properties on non-element objects that generate events, like window, document, xmlhttprequest, and others.
... for example, for the progress event on instances of xmlhttprequest: const xhr = new xmlhttprequest(); xhr.onprogress = function() { … }; html onevent attributes html elements have attributes named onevent which can be used to register a handler for an event directly within the html code.
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials - HTTP
the access-control-allow-credentials header works in conjunction with the xmlhttprequest.withcredentials property or with the credentials option in the request() constructor of the fetch api.
... examples allow credentials: access-control-allow-credentials: true using xhr with credentials: var xhr = new xmlhttprequest(); xhr.open('get', 'http://example.com/', true); xhr.withcredentials = true; xhr.send(null); using fetch with credentials: fetch(url, { credentials: 'include' }) specifications specification status comment fetchthe definition of 'access-control-allow-credentials' in that specification.

in particular, they can't access content hosted in an iframe, if that content is served from a different domain, or make cross-domain xmlhttprequests.

so in the simplest case you would have: <iframe type="content" src="data:text/html,%3chtml%3e%3cbody%3e%3c/body%3e%3c/html%3e"/> but usually you don’t want to start with an empty document, you would rather want to load some template into the frame: var request = new xmlhttprequest(); request.open("get", "chrome://foo/content/template.html", false); request.send(null); frame.setattribute("src", "data:text/html," + encodeuricomponent(request.responsetext)); that way you can have the template in your extension but still strip it off all privileges when it is loaded in a frame.

Lifetime of a WebRTC session - Web APIs
in order to exchange signaling information, you can choose to send json objects back and forth over a websocket connection, or you could use xmpp or sip over an appropriate channel, or you could use xmlhttprequest over https with polling, or any other combination of technologies you can come up with.
Signaling and video calling - Web APIs
you can use anything you like, from websocket to xmlhttprequest to carrier pigeons to exchange the signaling information between the two peers.
Web Workers API - Web APIs
in addition, workers may use xmlhttprequest for network i/o, with the exception that the responsexml and channel attributes on xmlhttprequest always return null.
Worker - Web APIs
WebAPIWorker
workers may use xmlhttprequest for network communication, but its responsexml and channel attributes are always null.
XDomainRequest - Web APIs
it was removed in internet explorer 10 in favor of using xmlhttprequest with proper cors; if you are targeting internet explorer 10 or later, or wish to support any other browser, you need to use standard http access control.
XMLDocument.load() - Web APIs
WebAPIXMLDocumentload
as of at least gecko 1.9, this no longer supports cross-site loading of documents (use xmlhttprequest or fetch() instead).

ARIA: form role - Accessibility
anything that is not a <form> cannot be submitted, therefore you would have to use javascript to build an alternative data submission mechanism, for example with xmlhttprequest.
WAI ARIA Live Regions/API Support - Developer guides

ent kinds based on the object emitting the event including: the window object, such as due to resizing the browser, the window.screen object, such as due to changes in device orientation, the document object, including the loading, modification, user interaction, and unloading of the page, the objects in the dom (document object model) tree including user interactions or modifications, the xmlhttprequest objects used for network requests, and the media objects such as audio and video, when the media stream players change state.
HTML5 - Developer guides
WebGuideHTMLHTML5
xmlhttprequest level 2 allows fetching asynchronously some parts of the page, allowing it to display dynamic content, varying according to the time and user actions.
Developer guides
using formdata objects the formdata object lets you compile a set of key/value pairs to send using xmlhttprequest.
Reason: expected ‘true’ in CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Credentials’ - HTTP
if the request is being issued using xmlhttprequest, make sure you're not setting withcredentials to true.
Reason: Credential is not supported if the CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ is ‘*’ - HTTP
if the request is being issued using xmlhttprequest, make sure you're not setting withcredentials to true.
Reason: CORS request not HTTP - HTTP
to fix this problem, simply make sure you use https urls when issuing requests involving cors, such as xmlhttprequest, fetch apis, web fonts (@font-face), and webgl textures, and xsl stylesheets.
Using Feature Policy - HTTP
these features include: layout-inducing animations unoptimized (poorly compressed) images oversized images synchronous scripts synchronous xmlhttprequest unsized media to avoid breaking existing web content, the default for such policy-controlled features is to allow the functionality to be used by all origins.
Feature Policy - HTTP
the features include: layout-inducing animations legacy image formats oversized images synchronous scripts synchronous xmlhttprequest unoptimized images unsized media granular control over certain features the web provides functionality and apis that may have privacy or security risks if abused.
Feature-Policy: sync-xhr - HTTP
the http feature-policy header sync-xhr directive controls whether the current document is allowed to make synchronous xmlhttprequest requests.
Feature-Policy - HTTP
sync-xhr controls whether the current document is allowed to make synchronous xmlhttprequest requests.
Set-Cookie - HTTP
when calling xmlhttprequest.send() or fetch().
POST - HTTP
WebHTTPMethodsPOST
text/plain when the post request is sent via a method other than an html form — like via an xmlhttprequest — the body can take any type.
An overview of HTTP - HTTP
WebHTTPOverview
apis based on http the most commonly used api based on http is the xmlhttprequest api, which can be used to exchange data between a user agent and a server.
Protocol upgrade mechanism - HTTP
in essence, then, this key simply confirms that "yes, i really mean to open a websocket connection." this header is automatically added by clients that choose to use it; it cannot be added using the xmlhttprequest.setrequestheader() method.
A typical HTTP session - HTTP
WebHTTPSession
to work around this problem, web developers use several techniques: ping the server periodically via the xmlhttprequest, fetch apis, using the websockets api, or similar protocols.
JavaScript data types and data structures - JavaScript
strings are the common denominator of a lot of apis (input fields, local storage values, xmlhttprequest responses when using responsetext, etc.) and it can be tempting to only work with strings.
JavaScript technologies overview - JavaScript
xmlhttprequest makes it possible to send asynchronous http requests.
Promise() constructor - JavaScript
solve, reject) => { // do something asynchronous which eventually calls either: // // resolve(somevalue) // fulfilled // or // reject("failure reason") // rejected }); making functions return a promise to provide a function with promise functionality, have it return a promise: function myasyncfunction(url) { return new promise((resolve, reject) => { const xhr = new xmlhttprequest() xhr.open("get", url) xhr.onload = () => resolve(xhr.responsetext) xhr.onerror = () => reject(xhr.statustext) xhr.send() }); } specifications specification ecmascript (ecma-262)the definition of 'promise constructor' in that specification.
Promise - JavaScript
loading an image with xhr another simple example using promise and xmlhttprequest to load an image is available at the mdn github js-examples repository.
encodeURI() - JavaScript
!~*'() console.log(encodeuri(set3)); // abc%20abc%20123 (the space gets encoded as %20) console.log(encodeuricomponent(set1)); // %3b%2c%2f%3f%3a%40%26%3d%2b%24%23 console.log(encodeuricomponent(set2)); // -_.!~*'() console.log(encodeuricomponent(set3)); // abc%20abc%20123 (the space gets encoded as %20) note that encodeuri() by itself cannot form proper http get and post requests, such as for xmlhttprequest, because "&", "+", and "=" are not encoded, which are treated as special characters in get and post requests.

JavaScript typed arrays - JavaScript
xmlhttprequest.prototype.send() xmlhttprequest instances' send() method now supports typed arrays and arraybuffer objects as argument.
Mixed content - Web security
active content examples this section lists some types of http requests which are considered active content: <script> (src attribute) <link> (href attribute) (this includes css stylesheets) <iframe> (src attribute) xmlhttprequest requests fetch() requests all cases in css where a <url> value is used (@font-face, cursor, background-image, and so forth).
Same-origin policy - Web security
cross-origin network access the same-origin policy controls interactions between two different origins, such as when you use xmlhttprequest or an <img> element.
XPath snippets - XPath
if you are using xmlhttprequest to read a local or remote xml file into a dom tree (as described in parsing and serializing xml), the first argument to evaluatexpath() should be req.responsexml.
