About
mhttpd.js contains javascript function wrappers for most MIDAS AJAX functions typically used for implementing interactive custom pages for MIDAS experiments.
AJAX is a set of web development techniques used to construct interactive web applications:
mhttpd.js is typically served by mhttpd from $MIDASSYS/resources/mhttpd.js
<html> <head> ... <script src='mhttpd.js'></script> ... </head> ... </html>
A mostly up to date copy of mhttpd.js is linked here:
An example for using all mhttpd.js functions is included in the MIDAS distribution under examples/javascript1:
- http://ladd00.triumf.ca/~daqweb/doc/midas/examples/javascript1/
- http://ladd00.triumf.ca/~daqweb/doc/midas/examples/javascript1/example.html
MIDAS AJAX functions can be accessed directly without using mhttpd.js wrappers (i.e. using the JSON-P script-tag method)
