Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

Hi

I am getting the above error in workspaces. I have checked and re-checked my code but I can't figure out what is causing it...

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
  if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
    var employees = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
   }
};
xhr.open('GET', 'data/employees.json');
xhr.send();

Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers

Lewis

Aah, thats annoying. It works for me :(

This is my code...

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
  if (xhr.readyState === 4) {
    var employees = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
   }
};
xhr.open('GET', 'data/employees.json');
xhr.send();

Crisis averted. I deleted the workspace, loaded it up again, pasted my js back in and re-added the script tag, and it worked. Workspaces was obviously having a bit of a moment! :o)
