Despite of having the word “XML” in its name, it can operate on any data, not only in XML format. We can upload/download files, track progress and much more.
Right now, there’s another, more modern method fetch, that somewhat deprecates XMLHttpRequest.
In modern web-development XMLHttpRequest is used for three reasons:
Historical reasons: we need to support existing scripts with XMLHttpRequest.
We need to support old browsers, and don’t want polyfills (. to keep scripts tiny).
We need something that fetch can’t do yet, . to track upload progress.
Does that sound familiar? If yes, then all right, go on with XMLHttpRequest. Otherwise, please head on to Fetch.
The basics
XMLHttpRequest has two modes of operation: synchronous and asynchronous.
Let’s see the asynchronous first, as it’s used in the majority of cases.
To do the request, we need 3 steps:
Create XMLHttpRequest:
let xhr = new XML
