XHR sync calls failing in Chrome. Script not waiting for the xhr response

问题

Issue: While working in Chrome, script not waiting for the Synchronous xhr response. Working fine in FireFox/IE. Have used onreadyStateHandlers as well, but still, before the response is received the other codes are executed.

function callingScript()
{ var a=callServer();
   alert(a);//Here a is showing undefined while executing in chrome. 
            But in FF/IE its waiting for the response and then alerts a with response. 
}

function callServer()
{
 var response;
 var httpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
 httpRequest.open("POST","abc",false);
 httpRequest.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
 httpRequest.onreadystatechange = function() 
   {       
        if (httpRequest.readyState != 4)  
           {return; }

        if (httpRequest.status != 200)    
               {response=httpRequest.status;}
        else   {response=httpRequest.responseText;}

   };
 httpRequest.send(data);
 return response;

 }

Please share your thoughts!!

回答1:

the function callServer() does not wait for the request to be responded. use a callback to solve this problem:

function callingScript()
{ callServer(function(response) {
      alert(response);
  });
}

function callServer(callback)
{
 var response;
 var httpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
 httpRequest.open("POST","abc",false);
 httpRequest.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
 httpRequest.onreadystatechange = function() 
   {       
        if (httpRequest.readyState != 4)  
           {return; }

        if (httpRequest.status != 200)    
               {response=httpRequest.status;}
        else   {response=httpRequest.responseText;}

        callback(response);
   };
 httpRequest.send(data);
 return response;

 }
