[SOLVED] Can you pass a variable to the function called after readystate = 4?

[RIRedinPA]

is it possible to do this?

 

xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=function(variable) {

if(xmlHttp.readyState==4) {

variable.innerHTML = xmlHttp.responseText;

}

}

 

//make sure ? is in qstring, not page

xmlHttp.open("GET", thepage + qstring, true);

  xmlHttp.send(null);

Yes, but you don't even need to add it to the function arguments. This will work:

function doStuff(variable){
var url = 'ajax.php';
http.open('GET', url, true);
http.send(null);
http.onreadystatechange=function(){
	if(http.readyState==4){
		variable.value = http.responseText;
	}
}
}

Thanks, I had that but somehow it didn't work, I must have had another error negating it, rewrote the script and it worked like a dandy...
