Magento ajax request to controller

[che_figueroa]

I have been stuck on trying to send an ajax request to the controller.  I think it is the routing but I don't know where to find the error.  I can Paypal money if you would be able to get on a video call with me to resolve this issue.  I look forward to hearing back from you.

Regards,

Hi @che_figueroa,

Which version of Magento are you using and how are you trying to send the request?

Here is my ajax request:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
                <script type="text/javascript">
                    $(document).ready(function(){
                        $(".emailfocusout").focusout(function(){
                            $.ajax({
                                url: "<?php echo $this->getUrl('/checkout/Email/Email') ?>",
                                type: "POST",
                                data: JSON.stringify({"email": "che607@yahoo.com"}),
                                contentType: "application/json",
                                success: function(data) {
                                    console.log("SUCCESS: ", data);
                                },
                                error: function(data) {
                                    console.log('ERROR: ', data);
                                },
                            });
                        });
                    });
                </script>

Here is my controller: 

<?php

class Accutrition_Checkout_EmailController extends Mage_Core_Controller_Front_Action
{
    public function EmailAction()
    {
        $msg = "You hit emailAction";
        echo $msg;
    }
}

Here is my config.xml:

I know I can send the ajax request because in the ajax request the success function is triggered and I get a 200 code in my post request with the correct params(data: { "email": "che607@yahoo.com", I know because when I check the Network tab in the browser dev tools the right params for the request are there).  I can't hit the controller though.  I am using Magento 1.

**UPDATE**

It it working partially.  The base URL is:  http://accutritionp71.local/

When I go to http://accutritionp71.local/checkout/Email/Email it hits the controller and displays the controller action output in the browser.

With this request:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
                <script type="text/javascript">
                    $(document).ready(function(){
                        $(".emailfocusout").focusout(function(){
                            $.ajax({
                                url: "<?php echo $this->getUrl('/checkout/Email/Email') ?>",
                                type: "POST",
                                data: JSON.stringify({"email": "che607@yahoo.com"}),
                                contentType: "application/json",
                                success: function(data) {
                                    console.log("SUCCESS: ", data);
                                },
                                error: function(data) {
                                    console.log('ERROR: ', data);
                                },
                            });
                        });
                    });
                </script>

But in the Firefox dev tools it should that the request is: http://accutritionp71.local/

Isn't it supposed to be: http://accutritionp71.local/checkout/Email/Email ?

[che_figueroa]

I just solved it, I had to change the URL path

url: "checkout/Email/Email"
