What is the difference between jQuery.load() and jQuery.get() methods in jQuery?
jQuery load() method
The load( url, data, callback ) method loads data from the server and places the returned HTML into the matched element.
Here is the description of all the parameters used by this method −
- url − A string containing the URL to which the request is sent.
- data − This optional parameter represents a map of data that is sent with the request.
- callback − This optional parameter represents a function that is executed if the request succeeds
Assuming we have following HTML content in result.html file:
<h1>THIS IS RESULT...</h1>
Example
The following is the code snippet showing the usage of this method.
<head>
<script src = "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#driver").click(function(event){
$('#stage').load('result.html');
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Click on the button to load result.html file:</p>
<div id = "stage" style = "background-color:cc0;">
STAGE
</div>
<input type = "button" id = "driver" value = "Load Data" />
</body>jQuery get() method
The jQuery.get( url, [data], [callback], [type] ) method loads data from the server using a GET HTTP request.
Here is the description of all the parameters used by this method −
- url − A string containing the URL to which the request is sent
- data − This optional parameter represents key/value pairs that will be sent to the server.
- callback − This optional parameter represents a function to be executed whenever the data is loaded successfully.
- type − This optional parameter represents type of data to be returned to callback function: "xml", "html", "script", "json", "jsonp", or "text".
Let’s say we have the following PHP content in result.php file,
<html>
<?php
if( $_REQUEST["name"] ) {
$name = $_REQUEST['name'];
echo "Welcome ". $name;
}
?>
</html>Example
The following is the code snippet showing the usage of this method −
<head>
<script src = "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#driver").click(function(event){
$.get(
"result.php",
{ name: "Zara" },
function(data) {
$('#stage').html(data);
}
);
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Click on the button to load result.html file</p>
<span id = "stage" style = "background-color:#cc0;">
STAGE
</span>
<div><input type = "button" id = "driver"
value = "Load Data" /></div>
</body>
