Menu
I am a newbie in javascript/ajax and I need some help.
I have 2 dropdown lists that the second one(id=school) depends on the first one(id=uni). On change of the 1st, a javascript function is called and via an innerHTML, the 2nd ddlist is updated with the right options.
Furthermore, my ddlists are decorated using some js and css. But, when the innerHMTL is called, the styling is lost since the javascript function in not called. My code is given below:
index.php :
[code=php]…
<script type=”text/javascript”>
function getXMLHTTP() { //fuction to return the xml http object
var xmlhttp=false;
try{
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch(e) {
try{
xmlhttp= new ActiveXObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);
}
catch(e){
try{
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject(“Msxml2.XMLHTTP”);
}
catch(e1){
xmlhttp=false;
}
}
}
return xmlhttp;
}
function getSchool(strURL) {
var req = getXMLHTTP();
if (req) {
req.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (req.readyState == 4) {
// only if “OK”
if (req.status == 200) {
document.getElementById(‘schooldiv’).innerHTML=req.responseText;
} else {
alert(“There was a problem while using XMLHTTP:n” + req.statusText);
}
}
}
req.open(“GET”, strURL, true);
req.send(null);
}
}
</script>
