send Ajax Request to XWork

[Max Madjarov]

Hi,

I have defined a javascript function:

function fnSendAssessment(skillTitle, selfAssessment) {
    var postdata = {'selfAssessment': selfAssessment, 'skillTitle' : skillTitle};
    var url = AJS.params.contextPath + "/clientspace/setassessment.action";
    AJS.$.ajax({
        type: "post",
        url: url,
        data: postdata,
        success: function() {
            alert("ok");
        },
        error: function(response) {
            alert("Uuups!");
        }
    }); //ajax call
}

and I will call a XWork Action which is declared in xml (atlassian-plugin.xml):

<action name="setassessment"  class="de.twt.confluence.plugins.actions.CaptureSkillsAction" method="setassessment">
                <result name="redirect" type="velocity">captureskills.action</result>
</action>

but i get always only error back... which is the right way to send ajax requests to XWork Actions? Is there some examples?

Thanks :-)

Would you mind enlighten the rest of us about what was wrong? ;-)

Thanks for the answer could someone please tell me how to define this javascript function? I have the following inside my .vm file and get a velocity parse error.
