2,111 PointsAjax request on button element
I put an ajax request to run on a HTML button element onClick attribute.
It will run on the first initial click, but anything after the first i get the following error "Failed to execute 'send' on 'XMLHttpRequest': The object's state must be OPENED."
Why does this happen and how do i solve it?
My Code:
let xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() { if(xhr.readyState === 4) { if (xhr.status === 200) { let response = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText) console.log(response.title) } } };
xhr.open("GET", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/2");

That fixed it, but is that a appropriate solution to the error?
