Using Yahoo Connection api
 
The vbulletin pages load the yahoo-dom-event and connection libraries.

Code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/yui/2.9.0/build/yahoo-dom-event/yahoo-dom-event.js?v=387"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/yui/2.9.0/build/connection/connection-min.js?v=387"></script>
I want to use those libraries to make ajax requests. I don't want to pack jquery on top of all the libraries that are already loaded.

So how would I make such a request?

Firstly, the documention for the yahoo connection manager states that "yahoo-min" is a prerequisite:
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/connection/

I tried to do an ajax request like this, but nothing happens:
Code:
        var postData = "postid=12345&userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]&hash="+the_hash;

        var callback = {
                success:handleSuccess,
                failure: handleFailure,
                argument: ['foo','bar']
        };
        var handleSuccess = function(o){
                if(o.responseText !== undefined){
                div.innerHTML = "Transaction id: " + o.tId;
                div.innerHTML += "HTTP status: " + o.status;
                div.innerHTML += "Status code message: " + o.statusText;
                div.innerHTML += "<li>HTTP headers: <ul>" + o.getAllResponseHeaders + "</ul></li>";
                div.innerHTML += "PHP response: " + o.responseText;
                div.innerHTML += "Argument object: " + o.argument;
                }
        }
        var handleFailure= function(o){
        }

        var request = YAHOO.util.Connect.asyncRequest('POST', 'http://mydomain.com/myscript.php', callback, postData);
So how is the connection even working in vbulletin? Why is the connection manager loaded when it depends on the yahoo library?

I tried this out and it works for me. I did have to remove the "+ the_hash" because it wasn't defined, but I assumed you just didn't include that code. How do you know it's not working? I'd suggest using something like FireFox with FireBug if you're not already.

So you don't have to load the yahoo-min.js library as a dependency?

I just copied your code in to the footer template, made a few changes to get it to run (liike the 'the_hash' thing and changing the url). I changed it to call misc.php?do=ajax then put a plugin on misc_start that just has:

Code:
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'ajax')
  die("foo");
Then using Firebug I could see that it was making the request and getting the "foo" response. So no, I didn't have to add any js files.

Okay, thanks. You are always very helpful, kh99!

I've had a look at Firebug now. It was a missing security token that was causing the problems.
