dns loc with ajax

I've always used the LOC to Maps web page to check to see whether my DNS LOC records work properly. I decided to try to rewrite this application using modern web technologies to see how well it would work.

The result is my DNS LOC lookup page. This page is all done with Javascript and XML-RPC and Google Maps with a Python XML-RPC back-end.

Some names to try might be:

  • hewgill.net
  • macnugget.org
  • ivo.nu
  • yahoo.com

Let me know whether it works for you and if you find any problems!

A brief flash says "loading", then it says "Interrupted" for anything I enter.

On IE7 beta1, it says "Loading", then "slashdot.org: dns.resolver.NoAnswer: "

Try using slacker.com. That should actually give you a location. Apparently, slashdot and google don't publish LOC (not everyone does).

If you could, try http://hewgill.com/tools/dnsloc.html again with say, yahoo.com. I think I've fixed the "Interrupted" problem.

It worked for me with Firefox 1.0.7, on Windows XP and Linux.

Safari 2.0.2 and Firefox 1.5 both gave me the interrupted behavior or Mac. Opera 8.5 on Mac stuck at the loading page for as long as I would leave it - it never gave me interrupted, nor did it give me the actual information.

IE6 on Windows XP worked.
