Re: Django Captcha Ajax call not working

Hi,

First of all - you are not sending anything to the form. 

            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",  
                url: "../captcha",
                contentType: "application/json",
                data: {},
                dataType: "json",
                success: function(data) {
                    alert("success");
                  },
                error: function(data) {
                    alert("not OK");
                  }

                });

This says that the data sent to the method SHOULD be empty - so the form will always be invalid - there is nothing in it. You probably want to include your form in the data part of the jquery request. Check this for more information: https://api.jquery.com/serialize/.

Secondly - you should also include the CSRF token - otherwise you will get other errors with that eventually - check this for information on how to do that: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/csrf/#ajax

Hi, I managed to make an ajax call. But the form is always invalid. IT is like the captcha field passed to the view is always empty.

I have the following class view taken from documentation:

            return HttpResponse(json.dumps(to_json_response), content_type='application/json')
        else:
            return HttpResponse("test2", content_type='application/json')


and the following ajax call from template:

    <script type="text/javascript">
        function captcha() {
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST", 
                url: "../captcha",
                contentType: "application/json",
                data: {},
                dataType: "json",
                success: function(data) {
                    alert("success");
                  },
                error: function(data) {
                    alert("not OK");
                  }

                });
        }
    </script>


<input type="button" id="button" onclick="captcha()" value="OK"/>

url(r'^captcha$', views.CaptchaView.as_view(), name="captcha")
