$.get()

Shorthand to make AJAX requests using the GET method.

Usage

$.get(url[, data, success, type]); // => xhr
$.get(url, success[, type]); // => xhr

See $.ajax() for a description of the input parameters.

Return value

For asynchronous requests, the generated XMLHttpRequest object will be returned. Synchronous requests will return undefined.

Example

The following example makes an AJAX request using the GET method:

$.get(
	"/api.php",
	{action: "update", id: 5},
	function (response) {
		console.log(response);
	},
	"json"
);

Differences to jQuery

Dabby doesn’t return a deferred object like jQuery does, so you cannot chain any deferred methods to this method.

$.post()

Shorthand to make AJAX requests using the POST method.

Usage

$.post(url[, data, success, type]) // => xhr
$.post(url, success[, type]) // => xhr

See $.ajax() for a description of the input parameters.

Return value

For asynchronous requests, the generated XMLHttpRequest object will be returned. Synchronous requests will return undefined.

Example

The following example makes an AJAX request using the POST method:

$.post(
	"/api.php",
	{action: "update", id: 5},
	function (response) {
		console.log(response);
	},
	"json"
);
