jQuery and AJAX Tutorials 30 | More AJAX setup Video Lecture | AJAX and jQuery: Complete Series for Beginners - Front-End Programming

hey what's up guys my name is Ilias and
welcome to your 30s tutorial on jQuery
and this tutorial we are going to set up
our own web server
well it sounds drinking complicated but
it's not
and the reason why you need a web server
to work with Ajax surprise huh because
you know a jaques means a communication
with the server so you want to send her
a request to a server and well before I
assume you guys had your tutorials
stored locally like like I had as well
just in a computer in a folder and you
just ran them but now we want to access
the files in on the on the server and
because if you cannot access files
stored locally using JavaScript on your
computer because of the security reasons
and stuff so you want to you want to
have a web server setup in order to
program edge X and what I have a I have
a great solution for it I am running the
localhost just a local Apache on my
computer and I have this exam tools
examples it is a very very good thing so
let's just go ahead and Google for exam
and click the first result which is a
page of friends org I make sure I go to
the English version of this website so
exempt provides you an a real a page
server running a computer locally and
it's it's it is a great thing for web
developers when you like developing
somewhere outside and if I don't have
any internet connection
you can still do everything and the Sam
works like a real web server you can
actually host your projects using Sam
well you don't want to do that well it's
because it's under I mean it's not a
real hosting but you can actually use
Sam for hosting your projects and use
your computer as a server but and it's
also free so so what you guys have to do
now just pick your
version for your operating system and
download Sam and then please set it up
and when you set it up you have to have
a folder called HD Doc's I'll just hide
right here htdocs is a standard a
patient folder where you put your files
in our case you just put that the files
from our tutorial this all does all
those folders except the video folder
because the video folder is mine where I
just store my videos well doesn't matter
so you have to just copy all this
content so of the previous tutorial into
this HCG Doc's htdocs folder well I have
a link called web so this is where I
store it and when I go to when I just
type localhost in my browser and press
enter the server the server this server
just displays me our page we created
because I called it index dot HTML and
index that HTML is the standard name for
a web page so that it appears right away
when you just type localhost or even you
can you can have a different name for
your index.html and for HTML document
because you can access it like this just
localhost / and the the file name
alright so now I talked a lot and we
explain you a lot and now let's just go
ahead and write our first line of edge
explode so we are going to use the
function called get and this get
function takes the following parameters
which is the path I'll just step path is
a example and then it takes a parameter
called function and with the parameter
data then 18 dumb curly brackets and
normal bracket and semi calm like as
usual all right and within this function
function with the parameter of data you
will type your code so and now what it
does it's access accesses the file
following this path and this data
parameter is the parameter
which is which gets returned from the
server so this data variable will
basically store the server's the
server's response and in this case we
are just asking the server to provide us
the contents of this file which is
stored under this path all right now
time is up unfortunately and we want to
make it in this tutorial anymore to test
and to our to program our edge expansion
but now I explain you this simple gate
function so we grab the file path get
this data as a result and then we can do
something this result for example we can
display it on the page and we will do it
in the thirty-first tutorial so thanks
for watching guys and I'll see you in
the next tutorial
