<p><span class="seoSummary">Ebben az útmutatóban azt fogjuk körüljárni, hogy miként használhatjuk az {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest")}} objektumot <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP">HTTP</a> kérelmek küldésére, annak érdekében, hogy adatokat cserélhessünk a webhely és a szerver között.</span></p>

<p>Egy új HTTP kérelem elküldéséhez először hozzunk létre egy új <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> objektumot, nyissuk meg az URL-t, majd küldjük el a kérelmet. Az adatátvitel befejezése után, objektumunk hasznos információkkal szolgálhat, mint a válasz törzs vagy az eredmény <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status">HTTP státusz</a> kódja.</p>

<pre class="brush: js">function reqListener () {
  console.log(this.responseText);
}

var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
oReq.addEventListener("load", reqListener);
oReq.open("GET", "http://www.example.org/example.txt");
oReq.send();</pre>

<h2 id="Kérelem_típusok">Kérelem típusok</h2>

<p>A request made via <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> can fetch the data in one of two ways, asynchronously or synchronously. The type of request is dictated by the optional <code>async</code> argument (the third argument) that is set on the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.open()")}} method. If this argument is <code>true</code> or not specified, the <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> is processed asynchronously, otherwise the process is handled synchronously. A detailed discussion and demonstrations of these two types of requests can be found on the <a href="/en-US/docs/DOM/XMLHttpRequest/Synchronous_and_Asynchronous_Requests">synchronous and asynchronous requests</a> page. Do not use synchronous requests outside Web Workers.</p>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> Starting with Gecko 30.0 {{ geckoRelease("30.0") }}, synchronous requests on the main thread have been deprecated due to the negative effects to the user experience.</div>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> The constructor function <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> isn't limited to only XML documents. It starts with <strong>"XML"</strong> because when it was created the main format that was originally used for Asynchronous Data Exchange were XML</div>

<h2 id="Válasz_kezelés">Válasz kezelés</h2>

<p>There are several types of <a href="https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/">response attributes</a> defined by the living standard specification for the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.XMLHttpRequest", "XMLHttpRequest()")}} constructor. These tell the client making the <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> important information about the status of the response. Some cases where dealing with non-text response types may involve some manipulation and analysis are outlined in the following sections.</p>

<h3 id="Analyzing_and_manipulating_the_responseXML_property">Analyzing and manipulating the <code>responseXML</code> property</h3>

<p>If you use <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> to get the content of a remote XML document, the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.responseXML", "responseXML")}} property will be a DOM object containing a parsed XML document. This could prove difficult to manipulate and analyze. There are four primary ways of analyzing this XML document:</p>

<ol>
 <li>Using <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/XPath">XPath</a> to address (or point to) parts of it.</li>
 <li>Manually <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/Parsing_and_serializing_XML">Parsing and serializing XML</a> to strings or objects.</li>
 <li>Using {{domxref("XMLSerializer")}} to serialize <strong>DOM trees to strings or to files</strong>.</li>
 <li>{{jsxref("RegExp")}} can be used if you always know the content of the XML document beforehand. You might want to remove line breaks, if you use <code>RegExp</code> to scan with regard to line breaks. However, this method is a "last resort" since if the XML code changes slightly, the method will likely fail.</li>
</ol>

<div class="note">
<p><strong>Note:</strong> <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> can now interpret HTML for you using the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.responseXML", "responseXML")}} property. Read the article about <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest/HTML_in_XMLHttpRequest">HTML in XMLHttpRequest</a> to learn how to do this.</p>
</div>

<h3 id="Processing_a_responseText_property_containing_an_HTML_document">Processing a <code>responseText</code> property containing an HTML document</h3>

<p>If you use <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> to get the content of a remote HTML webpage, the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.responseText", "responseText")}} property is a string containing the raw HTML. This could prove difficult to manipulate and analyze. There are three primary ways to analyze and parse this raw HTML string:</p>

<ol>
 <li>Use the <code>XMLHttpRequest.responseXML</code> property as covered in the article <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest/HTML_in_XMLHttpRequest">HTML in XMLHttpRequest</a>.</li>
 <li>Inject the content into the body of a <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/DocumentFragment">document fragment</a> via <code>fragment.body.innerHTML</code> and traverse the DOM of the fragment.</li>
 <li>{{jsxref("RegExp")}} can be used if you always know the content of the HTML <code>responseText</code> beforehand. You might want to remove line breaks, if you use RegExp to scan with regard to linebreaks. However, this method is a "last resort" since if the HTML code changes slightly, the method will likely fail.</li>
</ol>

<h2 id="Bináris_adatok_kezelése">Bináris adatok kezelése</h2>

<p>Although {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest")}} is most commonly used to send and receive textual data, it can be used to send and receive binary content. There are several well tested methods for coercing the response of an <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> into sending binary data. These involve utilizing the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.overrideMimeType", "overrideMimeType()")}} method on the <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> object and is a workable solution.</p>

<pre class="brush:js">var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
oReq.open("GET", url);
// retrieve data unprocessed as a binary string
oReq.overrideMimeType("text/plain; charset=x-user-defined");
/* ... */
</pre>

<p>However, more modern techniques are available, since the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.responseType", "responseType")}} attribute now supports a number of additional content types, which makes sending and receiving binary data much easier.</p>

<p>For example, consider this snippet, which uses the <code>responseType</code> of <code>"arraybuffer"</code> to fetch the remote content into a {{jsxref("ArrayBuffer")}} object, which stores the raw binary data.</p>

<pre class="brush:js">var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();

oReq.onload = function(e) {
  var arraybuffer = oReq.response; // not responseText
  /* ... */
}
oReq.open("GET", url);
oReq.responseType = "arraybuffer";
oReq.send();</pre>

<p>For more examples check out the <a href="/en-US/docs/DOM/XMLHttpRequest/Sending_and_Receiving_Binary_Data">Sending and Receiving Binary Data</a> page</p>

<h2 id="Folyamatok_nyomonkövetése">Folyamatok nyomonkövetése</h2>

<p><code>XMLHttpRequest</code> provides the ability to listen to various events that can occur while the request is being processed. This includes periodic progress notifications, error notifications, and so forth.</p>

<p>Support for DOM {{event("progress")}} event monitoring of <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> transfers follows the <a href="https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/#interface-progressevent">specification for progress events</a>: these events implement the {{domxref("ProgressEvent")}} interface. The actual events you can monitor to determine the state of an ongoing transfer are:</p>

<dl>
 <dt>{{event("progress")}}</dt>
 <dd>The amount of data that has been retrieved has changed.</dd>
 <dt>{{event("load")}}</dt>
 <dd>The transfer is complete; all data is now in the <code>response</code></dd>
</dl>

<pre class="brush:js">var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();

oReq.addEventListener("progress", updateProgress);
oReq.addEventListener("load", transferComplete);
oReq.addEventListener("error", transferFailed);
oReq.addEventListener("abort", transferCanceled);

oReq.open();

// ...

// progress on transfers from the server to the client (downloads)
function updateProgress (oEvent) {
  if (oEvent.lengthComputable) {
    var percentComplete = oEvent.loaded / oEvent.total * 100;
    // ...
  } else {
    // Unable to compute progress information since the total size is unknown
  }
}

function transferComplete(evt) {
  console.log("The transfer is complete.");
}

function transferFailed(evt) {
  console.log("An error occurred while transferring the file.");
}

function transferCanceled(evt) {
  console.log("The transfer has been canceled by the user.");
}</pre>

<p>Lines 3-6 add event listeners for the various events that are sent while performing a data transfer using <code>XMLHttpRequest</code>.</p>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> You need to add the event listeners before calling <code>open()</code> on the request. Otherwise the <code>progress</code> events will not fire.</div>

<p>The progress event handler, specified by the <code>updateProgress()</code> function in this example, receives the total number of bytes to transfer as well as the number of bytes transferred so far in the event's <code>total</code> and <code>loaded</code> fields. However, if the <code>lengthComputable</code> field is false, the total length is not known and will be zero.</p>

<p>Progress events exist for both download and upload transfers. The download events are fired on the <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> object itself, as shown in the above sample. The upload events are fired on the <code>XMLHttpRequest.upload</code> object, as shown below:</p>

<pre class="brush:js">var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();

oReq.upload.addEventListener("progress", updateProgress);
oReq.upload.addEventListener("load", transferComplete);
oReq.upload.addEventListener("error", transferFailed);
oReq.upload.addEventListener("abort", transferCanceled);

oReq.open();
</pre>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> Progress events are not available for the <code>file:</code> protocol.</div>

<div class="note">
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Starting in {{Gecko("9.0")}}, progress events can now be relied upon to come in for every chunk of data received, including the last chunk in cases in which the last packet is received and the connection closed before the progress event is fired. In this case, the progress event is automatically fired when the load event occurs for that packet. This lets you now reliably monitor progress by only watching the "progress" event.</p>
</div>

<div class="note">
<p><strong>Note:</strong> As of {{Gecko("12.0")}}, if your progress event is called with a <code>responseType</code> of "moz-blob", the value of response is a {{domxref("Blob")}} containing the data received so far.</p>
</div>

<p>One can also detect all three load-ending conditions (<code>abort</code>, <code>load</code>, or <code>error</code>) using the <code>loadend</code> event:</p>

<pre class="brush:js">req.addEventListener("loadend", loadEnd);

function loadEnd(e) {
  console.log("The transfer finished (although we don't know if it succeeded or not).");
}
</pre>

<p>Note there is no way to be certain, from the information received by the <code>loadend</code> event, as to which condition caused the operation to terminate; however, you can use this to handle tasks that need to be performed in all end-of-transfer scenarios.</p>

<h2 id="Űrlapok_küldése_és_állományok_feltöltése">Űrlapok küldése és állományok feltöltése</h2>

<p>Instances of <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> can be used to submit forms in two ways:</p>

<ul>
 <li>using only AJAX</li>
 <li>using the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.FormData", "FormData")}} API</li>
</ul>

<p>Using the <code>FormData</code> API is the simplest and fastest, but has the disadvantage that data collected can not be <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify">stringified</a>.<br>
 Using only AJAX is more complex, but typically more flexible and powerful.</p>

<h3 id="Using_nothing_but_XMLHttpRequest">Using nothing but <code>XMLHttpRequest</code></h3>

<p>Submitting forms without the <code>FormData</code> API does not require other APIs for most use cases. The only case where you need an additional API is <strong>if you want to upload one or more files</strong>, where you use the {{domxref("FileReader")}} API.</p>

<h4 id="A_brief_introduction_to_the_submit_methods">A brief introduction to the submit methods</h4>

<p>An html {{ HTMLElement("form") }} can be sent in four ways:</p>

<ul>
 <li>using the <code>POST</code> method and setting the <code>enctype</code> attribute to <code>application/x-www-form-urlencoded</code> (default);</li>
 <li>using the <code>POST</code> method and setting the <code>enctype</code> attribute to <code>text/plain</code>;</li>
 <li>using the <code>POST</code> method and setting the <code>enctype</code> attribute to <code>multipart/form-data</code>;</li>
 <li>using the <code>GET</code> method (in this case the <code>enctype</code> attribute will be ignored).</li>
</ul>

<p>Now, consider the submission of a form containing only two fields, named <code>foo</code> and <code>baz</code>. If you are using the <code>POST</code> method the server will receive a string similar to one of the following three examples, depending on the encoding type you are using:</p>

<ul>
 <li>
  <p>Method: <code>POST</code>; Encoding type: <code>application/x-www-form-urlencoded</code> (default):</p>

  <pre class="brush:plain">Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

foo=bar&amp;baz=The+first+line.%0D%0AThe+second+line.%0D%0A</pre>
 </li>
 <li>
  <p>Method: <code>POST</code>; Encoding type: <code>text/plain</code>:</p>

  <pre class="brush:plain">Content-Type: text/plain

foo=bar
baz=The first line.
The second line.</pre>
 </li>
 <li>
  <p>Method: <code>POST</code>; Encoding type: <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types#multipartform-data">multipart/form-data</a></code>:</p>

  <pre class="brush:plain">Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------314911788813839

-----------------------------314911788813839
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="foo"

bar
-----------------------------314911788813839
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="baz"

The first line.
The second line.

-----------------------------314911788813839--</pre>
 </li>
</ul>

<p>However, if you are using the <code>GET</code> method, a string like the following will be simply added to the URL:</p>

<pre class="brush:plain">?foo=bar&amp;baz=The%20first%20line.%0AThe%20second%20line.</pre>

<h4 id="A_little_vanilla_framework">A little vanilla framework</h4>

<p>All these effects are done automatically by the web browser whenever you submit a {{HTMLElement("form")}}. If you want to perform the same effects using JavaScript you have to instruct the interpreter about <em>everything</em>. Therefore, how to send forms in <em>pure</em> AJAX is too complex to be explained here in detail. For this reason, here we place <strong>a complete (yet didactic) framework</strong>, able to use all four ways to <em>submit</em>, and to <strong>upload files</strong>:</p>

      &lt;/select&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;
      Post your photos:
      &lt;input type="file" multiple name="photos[]"&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;
      &lt;input id="vehicle_bike" type="checkbox" name="vehicle[]" value="Bike" /&gt;
      &lt;label for="vehicle_bike"&gt;I have a bike&lt;/label&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;input id="vehicle_car" type="checkbox" name="vehicle[]" value="Car" /&gt;
      &lt;label for="vehicle_car"&gt;I have a car&lt;/label&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;
      Describe yourself:&lt;br /&gt;
      &lt;textarea name="description" cols="50" rows="8"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;
      &lt;input type="submit" value="Submit" /&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;

&lt;/body&gt;
&lt;/html&gt;</pre>
</div>

<p>To test this, create a page named <strong>register.php</strong> (which is the <code>action</code> attribute of these sample forms), and put the following <em>minimalistic</em> content:</p>

<pre class="brush: php">&lt;?php
/* register.php */

header("Content-type: text/plain");

/*
NOTE: You should never use `print_r()` in production scripts, or
otherwise output client-submitted data without sanitizing it first.
Failing to sanitize can lead to cross-site scripting vulnerabilities.
*/

echo ":: data received via GET ::\n\n";
print_r($_GET);

echo "\n\n:: Data received via POST ::\n\n";
print_r($_POST);

echo "\n\n:: Data received as \"raw\" (text/plain encoding) ::\n\n";
if (isset($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA)) { echo $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA; }

echo "\n\n:: Files received ::\n\n";
print_r($_FILES);

</pre>

<p>The syntax to activate this script is simply:</p>

<pre class="syntaxbox">AJAXSubmit(myForm);</pre>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> This framework uses the {{domxref("FileReader")}} API to transmit file uploads. This is a recent API and is not implemented in IE9 or below. For this reason, the AJAX-only upload is considered <strong>an experimental technique</strong>. If you do not need to upload binary files, this framework works fine in most browsers.</div>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> The best way to send binary content is via {{jsxref("ArrayBuffer", "ArrayBuffers")}} or {{domxref("Blob", "Blobs")}} in conjuncton with the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.send()", "send()")}} method and possibly the {{domxref("FileReader.readAsArrayBuffer()", "readAsArrayBuffer()")}} method of the <code>FileReader</code> API. But, since the aim of this script is to work with a <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify">stringifiable</a> raw data, we used the {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.sendAsBinary()", "sendAsBinary()")}} method in conjunction with the {{domxref("FileReader.readAsBinaryString()", "readAsBinaryString()")}} method of the <code>FileReader</code> API. As such, the above script makes sense only when you are dealing with small files. If you do not intend to upload binary content, consider instead using the <code>FormData</code> API.</div>

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> The non-standard <code>sendAsBinary</code> method is considered deprecated as of Gecko 31 {{geckoRelease(31)}} and will be removed soon. The standard <code>send(Blob data)</code> method can be used instead.</div>

<h3 id="Using_FormData_objects">Using FormData objects</h3>

<p>The {{domxref("XMLHttpRequest.FormData", "FormData")}} constructor lets you compile a set of key/value pairs to send using <code>XMLHttpRequest</code>. Its primary use is in sending form data, but can also be used independently from a form in order to transmit user keyed data. The transmitted data is in the same format the form's <code>submit()</code> method uses to send data, if the form's encoding type were set to "multipart/form-data". FormData objects can be utilized in a number of ways with an <code>XMLHttpRequest</code>. For examples, and explanations of how one can utilize FormData with XMLHttpRequests, see the <a href="/en-US/docs/DOM/XMLHttpRequest/FormData/Using_FormData_Objects">Using FormData Objects</a> page. For didactic purposes here is <strong>a <em>translation</em> of <a href="#A_little_vanilla_framework">the previous example</a> transformed to use the <code>FormData</code> API</strong>. Note the brevity of the code:</p>

<div style="height: 400px; margin-bottom: 12px; overflow: auto;">
<pre class="brush: html">&lt;!doctype html&gt;
&lt;html&gt;
&lt;head&gt;
&lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" charset="UTF-8" /&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Sending forms with FormData &amp;ndash; MDN&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;script&gt;
"use strict";

function ajaxSuccess () {
  console.log(this.responseText);
}

function AJAXSubmit (oFormElement) {
  if (!oFormElement.action) { return; }
  var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
  oReq.onload = ajaxSuccess;
  if (oFormElement.method.toLowerCase() === "post") {
    oReq.open("post", oFormElement.action);
    oReq.send(new FormData(oFormElement));
  } else {
    var oField, sFieldType, nFile, sSearch = "";
    for (var nItem = 0; nItem &lt; oFormElement.elements.length; nItem++) {
      oField = oFormElement.elements[nItem];
      if (!oField.hasAttribute("name")) { continue; }
      sFieldType = oField.nodeName.toUpperCase() === "INPUT" ?
          oField.getAttribute("type").toUpperCase() : "TEXT";
      if (sFieldType === "FILE") {
        for (nFile = 0; nFile &lt; oField.files.length;
            sSearch += "&amp;" + escape(oField.name) + "=" + escape(oField.files[nFile++].name));
      } else if ((sFieldType !== "RADIO" &amp;&amp; sFieldType !== "CHECKBOX") || oField.checked) {
        sSearch += "&amp;" + escape(oField.name) + "=" + escape(oField.value);
      }
    }
    oReq.open("get", oFormElement.action.replace(/(?:\?.*)?$/, sSearch.replace(/^&amp;/, "?")), true);
    oReq.send(null);
  }
}
&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;
&lt;body&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;Sending forms with FormData&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Using the GET method&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;form action="register.php" method="get" onsubmit="AJAXSubmit(this); return false;"&gt;
  &lt;fieldset&gt;
    &lt;legend&gt;Registration example&lt;/legend&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;
      First name: &lt;input type="text" name="firstname" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      Last name: &lt;input type="text" name="lastname" /&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;p&gt;
      &lt;input type="submit" value="Submit" /&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Using the POST method&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;Enctype: application/x-www-form-urlencoded (default)&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;form action="register.php" method="post" onsubmit="AJAXSubmit(this); return false;"&gt;
  &lt;fieldset&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;
      First name: &lt;input type="text" name="firstname" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
      Last name: &lt;input type="text" name="lastname" /&gt;

    &lt;p&gt;
      &lt;input type="submit" value="Submit" /&gt;
    &lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/fieldset&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Enctype: text/plain&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The text/plain encoding is not supported by the FormData API.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Enctype: multipart/form-data&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;form action="register.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"
    onsubmit="AJAXSubmit(this); return false;"&gt;
  &lt;fieldset&gt;
    &lt;legend&gt;Upload example&lt;/legend&gt;

<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> As we said,<strong> {{domxref("FormData")}} objects are not <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify">stringifiable</a> objects</strong>.

<pre class="brush: js">function getHeaderTime () {
  console.log(this.getResponseHeader("Last-Modified"));  /* A valid GMTString date or null */
}

var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
oReq.open("HEAD" /* use HEAD if you only need the headers! */, "yourpage.html");
oReq.onload = getHeaderTime;
oReq.send();</pre>

<h3 id="Do_something_when_last_modified_date_changes">Do something when last modified date changes</h3>

<p>Let's create two functions:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">function getHeaderTime () {
  var nLastVisit = parseFloat(window.localStorage.getItem('lm_' + this.filepath));
  var nLastModif = Date.parse(this.getResponseHeader("Last-Modified"));

  if (isNaN(nLastVisit) || nLastModif &gt; nLastVisit) {
    window.localStorage.setItem('lm_' + this.filepath, Date.now());
    isFinite(nLastVisit) &amp;&amp; this.callback(nLastModif, nLastVisit);
  }
}

function ifHasChanged(sURL, fCallback) {
  var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
  oReq.open("HEAD" /* use HEAD - we only need the headers! */, sURL);
  oReq.callback = fCallback;
  oReq.filepath = sURL;
  oReq.onload = getHeaderTime;
  oReq.send();
}</pre>

<p>And to test:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">/* Let's test the file "yourpage.html"... */

ifHasChanged("yourpage.html", function (nModif, nVisit) {
  console.log("The page '" + this.filepath + "' has been changed on " + (new Date(nModif)).toLocaleString() + "!");
});</pre>

<p>If you want to know <strong><em>if</em> <em>the current page</em> has changed</strong>, please read the article about {{domxref("document.lastModified")}}.</p>

<h2 id="Webhelyközi_XMLHttpRequest">Webhelyközi XMLHttpRequest</h2>

<p>Modern browsers support cross-site requests by implementing the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS">Cross-Origin Resource Sharing</a> (CORS) standard. As long as the server is configured to allow requests from your web application's origin, <code>XMLHttpRequest</code> will work. Otherwise, an <code>INVALID_ACCESS_ERR</code> exception is thrown.</p>

<h2 id="Gyorsítótár_megkerülése">Gyorsítótár megkerülése</h2>

<p>A cross-browser compatible approach to bypassing the cache is appending a timestamp to the URL, being sure to include a "?" or "&amp;" as appropriate. For example:</p>

<pre class="brush:plain">http://foo.com/bar.html -&gt; http://foo.com/bar.html?12345
http://foo.com/bar.html?foobar=baz -&gt; http://foo.com/bar.html?foobar=baz&amp;12345
</pre>

<p>As the local cache is indexed by URL, this causes every request to be unique, thereby bypassing the cache.</p>

<p>You can automatically adjust URLs using the following code:</p>

<pre class="brush:js">var oReq = new XMLHttpRequest();

oReq.open("GET", url + ((/\?/).test(url) ? "&amp;" : "?") + (new Date()).getTime());
oReq.send(null);</pre>

<h2 id="Biztonság">Biztonság</h2>

<p>{{fx_minversion_note(3, "Versions of Firefox prior to Firefox 3 allowed you to set the preference <code>capability.policy.&lt;policyname&gt;.XMLHttpRequest.open&lt;/policyname&gt;</code> to <code>allAccess</code> to give specific sites cross-site access. This is no longer supported.")}}</p>

<p>{{fx_minversion_note(5, "Versions of Firefox prior to Firefox 5 could use <code>netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege(\"UniversalBrowserRead\");</code> to request cross-site access. This is no longer supported, even though it produces no warning and permission dialog is still presented.")}}</p>

<p>The recommended way to enable cross-site scripting is to use the <code>Access-Control-Allow-Origin</code> HTTP header in the response to the XMLHttpRequest.</p>

<h3 id="XMLHttpRequests_being_stopped">XMLHttpRequests being stopped</h3>

<p>If you conclude with an XMLHttpRequest receiving <code>status=0</code> and <code>statusText=null</code>, this means the request was not allowed to be performed. It was <code><a href="https://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-xmlhttprequest-unsent">UNSENT</a></code>. A likely cause for this is when the <a href="https://www.w3.org/TR/2010/CR-XMLHttpRequest-20100803/#xmlhttprequest-origin"><code>XMLHttpRequest</code> origin</a> (at the creation of the XMLHttpRequest) has changed when the XMLHttpRequest is subsequently <code>open()</code>. This case can happen, for example, when one has an XMLHttpRequest that gets fired on an onunload event for a window, the expected XMLHttpRequest is created when the window to be closed is still there, and finally sending the request (in otherwords, <code>open()</code>) when this window has lost its focus and another window gains focus. The most effective way to avoid this problem is to set a listener on the new window's {{event("activate")}} event which is set once the terminated window has its {{event("unload")}} event triggered.</p>

<p>Setting <code>overrideMimeType</code> does not work from a {{domxref("Worker")}}.  See {{bug(678057)}} for more details.  Other browsers may handle this differently.</p>
