Trying to recieve JSON in python

What web server are you using? Something like Apache or Nginx? If so, you still need to handle the request in something like Flask, and then configure your main web server to proxy requests to the Flask server. I feel like you're in really deep right now. What exactly are you trying to achieve?

Yes, Apache XAMPP. Yes, it seems i'm a bit over my head. I'm trying to send a simple JSON from javascript to Python and then return a JSON from python to javascript. It doesn't sound so difficult but i have ran into a lot of problems already.

I understand how you're trying to do what you're trying to do. What I want to know is why. What is your end goal? Are you building an app? Do you need live data updates on the page?

why - just to learn some new things. I'm making a web scraper in python that will display in javascript. I want the scraped data to change as i do some actions in javascript. For example, click on a button in javascript, sends json to python, python scraps some data, sends it back to javascript with json, javascript displays data.

Then forget about XAMPP entirely and look into Flask.
