How to call Handler (.ashx) from Jquery?

Question

I have a HTTP handler (.ashx) which generates some html code from database and I want to call it from my Jquery function and pass a value (userID).

I am not sure how to call it and retrieve its data.

Use Google. It's faster that creating new question! Especially that first link in search result describe everything well. — Misiu, Mar 08 '13 at 07:55

something like this.

$(document).ready(function() {

    $.get("http://path/to/handler.ashx", function(html) {
        alert(html);
    });

});

The second link that came up was for this question. I trust SO over the first link so maybe this "answer" isn't deserved after all?? – Kristopher Jan 08 '14 at 22:32
@Wartickler have You event read that article? This is basically the same code, but with description. I give Amir link with something I found on Google in 5 seconds. Point was to show how easy it was to find solution just by typing 2 words in google. My answer is correct, and because You think SO is better (I also think SO is grate) doesn't mean You should downvote someones answer. – Misiu Jan 09 '14 at 07:47
You know what, you're right. This is actually an answer. My apologies, as I was downvoting what appeared to be a bad attitude. I'm trying to upvate the answer again but it's past 16 hours which means I can't change my vote unless you "edit" your answer. My bad... ): – Kristopher Jan 09 '14 at 14:52
@Wartickler I glad You got my point :) If it is not a problem please remove Your downvote. – Misiu Jan 10 '14 at 09:29
I'm trying to do so but the message i get is as thus: "You last voted on this answer yesterday. Your vote is now locked in unless this answer is edited." @misiu If you edit your answer in some way I can change this for you. – Kristopher Jan 10 '14 at 15:52
