*Note this is really just a test post to test out the code plugin, i’ll update this post to be a little more useful when i get a chance, the function works fine, its just a little hard to follow*
Put the following function into the head of the document
function getQuery(query){
var xmlhttp=false; //Clear our fetching variable
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP'); //Try the first kind of active x object…
} catch (e) {
try {
xmlhttp = new
ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP'); //Try the second kind of active x object
} catch (E) {
xmlhttp = false;
}
}
if (!xmlhttp && typeof XMLHttpRequest!='undefined') {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); //If we were able to get a working active x object, start an XMLHttpRequest
}
var file = 'page.php?query='; //This is the path to the file we just finished making *
xmlhttp.open('GET', file + query, true); //Open the file through GET, and add the page we want to retrieve as a GET variable **
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() {
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4) { //Check if it is ready to recieve data
var content = xmlhttp.responseText; //The content data which has been retrieved ***
if( content ){ //Make sure there is something in the content variable
document.getElementById('stageAjax').innerHTML = content; //Change the inner content of your div to the newly retrieved content ****
}
}
}
xmlhttp.send(null) //Nullify the XMLHttpRequest
return;
}
then create a php page called page.php
Use the query as your $_GET["query"] to return information from the database
