Jquery: Running AJAX locally without a webserver

Question

I have the following function in a .js file in index.html

function getValues(){

 $.ajax({
   type: \'POST\',
   url: \"http://localhost/getData/getdata.php\         


        

Answer 1

Ajax does not work over the file:// protocol as mentioned by others. Perhaps you want something like http://www.appcelerator.com/ to create desktop apps with html/js/css
