If its not alerting anything then clearly there are 2 reasons:-
1. There is an error before if(tableHtml=='true') is executed.
2. Worst case ajaxHandler() not called at all.

To debug try this:-

function ajaxhandler()
{
    alert("function called : " + response);
    tableHtml=response.Text
    if(tableHtml=='true') alert("Valid Move");
    else alert("invalid move")
}

If first alert is not popping up then #2 is the reason.
And if alert is popping up but response is undefined then #1 is the reason
