Ajax Memory Leak

[venkikam]

Hi All,

I have a web application that calls an AjaxMethod every 1min based on a javascript timer. It appears that every time I call this ajax method, IE uses more memory.

My function goes like..

[CODE=javascript]function ajaxFunction() {

var xmlHttp;
xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest( );
xmlHttp.open("G ET","./currentActivity Report.do?actio n=RefreshCurren tActivity&"+par ameter,true);
xmlHttp.onready statechange=fun ction() {

if(xmlHttp.read yState==4) {

var myspan = document.getEle mentById('myspa n');
var table = document.getEle mentById("Table ");
myspan.removeCh ild(table);
table = null;
var newspan = document.create Element('span') ;
newspan.setAttr ibute("id","Tab le");
myspan.appendCh ild(newspan);
document.getEle mentById("Table ").innerHTML=xm lHttp.responseT ext;
xmlHttp.onready statechange=fun ction() {};
xmlHttp.abort() ;
}
}

xmlHttp.send("" );
}[/CODE]

If any knows about the problem please let me know..

Please use code tags when posting code.

On line 23, change [CODE=javascript]xmlHttp.send("" );[/CODE] to [CODE=javascript]xmlHttp.send(nu ll);[/CODE]

The innerHTML is over writting html and not releasing it from memory. You will have to look for alternatives to innerHTML.

A JavaScript framework such as the MochiKit is free and can handle your ajax requests for you and resolve all browser incompatabilies .

I have not done this myself yet; so I cannot help you any further.
