two scripts dont work together

[squiblo]

I have a Javascript file named 'javascript.js' when i put 'script 1' inside it (without script 2) it works perfectly but when i put them both of the scripts in together, 'script 2' does not work while 'script 1' still works.

 

Script 1

//chat 1 input
   var http_request1 = false;
   function makePOSTRequest1(url, parameters) {
      http_request1 = false;
      if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari,...
         http_request1 = new XMLHttpRequest();
         if (http_request1.overrideMimeType) {
         	// set type accordingly to anticipated content type
            //http_request1.overrideMimeType('text/xml');
            http_request1.overrideMimeType('text/html');
         }
      } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE
         try {
            http_request1 = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
         } catch (e) {
            try {
               http_request1 = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
            } catch (e) {}
         }
      }
      if (!http_request1) {
         alert('Cannot create XMLHTTP instance');
         return false;
      }
  
  
      
      http_request1.onreadystatechange = alertContents1;
      http_request1.open('POST', url, true);
      http_request1.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
      http_request1.setRequestHeader("Content-length", parameters.length);
      http_request1.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
      http_request1.send(parameters);
   }

   function alertContents1() {
      if (http_request1.readyState == 4) {
         if (http_request1.status == 200) {
            //alert(http_request1.responseText);
            result1 = http_request1.responseText;
            document.getElementById('myspan').innerHTML = result1;            
         } else {
            alert('There was a problem with the request.');
         }
      }
   }
   
   function get1(obj) {
      var poststr1 = "mytextarea1=" + encodeURI( document.getElementById("mytextarea1").value );

		var replaceAND1= "and38";
		var message1 = poststr1.replace(/&/g, replaceAND1);

		document.getElementById("mytextarea1").value = '';

      makePOSTRequest1('http://localhost/includes/chat/textarea_input/sql1.php', message1);
   }

 

Script 2

var http_request2 = false;
   function makePOSTRequest2(url, parameters) {
      http_request2 = false;
      if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { // Mozilla, Safari,...
         http_request2 = new XMLHttpRequest();
         if (http_request2.overrideMimeType) {
         	// set type accordingly to anticipated content type
            //http_request2.overrideMimeType('text/xml');
            http_request2.overrideMimeType('text/html');
         }
      } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { // IE
         try {
            http_request2 = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
         } catch (e) {
            try {
               http_request2 = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
            } catch (e) {}
         }
      }
      if (!http_request2) {
         alert('Cannot create XMLHTTP instance');
         return false;
      }
  
  
      
      http_request2.onreadystatechange = alertContents2;
      http_request2.open('POST', url, true);
      http_request2.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
      http_request2.setRequestHeader("Content-length", parameters.length);
      http_request2.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
      http_request2.send(parameters);
   }

   function alertContents2() {
      if (http_request2.readyState == 4) {
         if (http_request2.status == 200) {
            //alert(http_request2.responseText);
            result2 = http_request2.responseText;
            document.getElementById('myspan').innerHTML = result2;            
         } else {
            alert('There was a problem with the request.');
         }
      }
   }
   
   function get2(obj) {
      var poststr2 = "mytextarea2=" + encodeURI( document.getElementById("mytextarea2").value );

		var replaceAND2= "and38";
		var message2 = poststr2.replace(/&/g, replaceAND2);

		document.getElementById("mytextarea2").value = '';

      makePOSTRequest2('http://localhost/includes/chat/textarea_input/sql2.php', message2);
   }
