I am trying to configure a GET request to print whatever was returned from it, but there is no output. Here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>My First Web Page</h1>
<p>My First Paragraph</p>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
function httpGet(theUrl)
{
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.responseType = 'json';
req.open('GET', theUrl, true);
req.onload = function() {
var jsonResponse = req.response;
};
req.send(null);
return jsonResponse.toString();
}
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = httpGet(myURL);
</script>
</body>
</html>
PS. myURL is an API and when typed into the browser returns the correct data.
