Guest boy Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Hi all, I recently heard about the AJAX web technology. I always wondered how gmail is able to give desktop like environment on a web page and now I've learned a good part - how it works. I decided to implement very basic AJAX on my webpage. I am not very good at JavaScript and I need your help. I googled a lot but in vein. So here is the code <html><head><title>Ajax Example</title><script language="Javascript">function xmlhttpPost(strURL) { var xmlHttpReq = false; var self = this; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { self.xmlHttpReq = new XMLHttpRequest(); } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { self.xmlHttpReq = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } self.xmlHttpReq.open('POST', strURL, true); self.xmlHttpReq.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'); self.xmlHttpReq.onreadystatechange = function() { if (self.xmlHttpReq.readyState == 4) { updatepage(self.xmlHttpReq.responseText); } } self.xmlHttpReq.send(getquerystring());}function getquerystring() { var word = value(------here-------); qstr = 'w=' + escape(word); return qstr;}function updatepage(str){ document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = str;}</script></head><body><a href="#" onmouseover="java script:xmlhttpPost('ajax.asp');return escape('<div id=result></div>'); return value('---- from here -----')">Text1</a><a href="#" onmouseover="java script:xmlhttpPost('ajax.asp');return escape('<div id=result></div>'); return value('---- from here -----')">Text2</a><a href="#" onmouseover="java script:xmlhttpPost('ajax.asp');return escape('<div id=result></div>'); return value('---- from here -----')">Text3</a><script language="javascript" src="wz_tooltip.js"></body></html> What I want is when ever onmouseover is called on Text1,Text2,Text3 it returns some value to a variable 'word' in this case repectively. I hope you understand my problem. If you need more info please post.Any help is much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
