VRN lookup – Using Form to enter Reg then add to Classifields listing

can some one help.

 

Ive managed to make the form i think, but the form is directing to the 3rd party xml database & not echo the information back .

i think it needs to be jquery/ajax as its required to load without refreshing the page to allow the information to be grabbed and entered into the listing.

 

Here is a example of the form ive managed to build

if you look at the url after its been submitted you can see the structure of the details that are required.

<body>
<h2>Enter Vehiche Registration Number</h2>
<form id = “myform” action=”http://www.w3schools.com/xml/note.xml” method=”GET”>
<input type=”hidden” name=”username” value=”password”>
<input type=”hidden” name=”mode” value=”test”>
<input type=”hidden” name=”key” value=”key1″>
<input type=”text” name=”vrm”>
<input type=”Submit”/>
</form>
</body>

example xml:

<vrm>DG70XSC</vrm><make>FORD</make><model>FOCUS ZETEC CLIMATE 116</model><enhanced_make>FORD</enhanced_make><enhanced_model>FOCUS</enhanced_model><enhanced_derivative>ZETEC CLIMATE</enhanced_derivative><plate_transfer>0</plate_transfer><date_manufactured>2008-02-08</date_manufactured><first_registered>2008-02-08</first_registered><v5c_date>2010-11-10</v5c_date><prior_use>0</prior_use><colour>BLACK</colour><previous_colours>0</previous_colours><colour_change_date>0000-00-00</colour_change_date><last_colour_text/><orig_colour_text/><exported>0</exported><exported_date>0000-00-00</exported_date><imported>0</imported><imported_date>0000-00-00</imported_date><imported_ni>0</imported_ni><scrapped>0</scrapped><scrapped_date>0000-00-00</scrapped_date><unscrapped>0</unscrapped><body>5 DOOR HATCHBACK</body><doors>5 DOORS</doors><seats>5</seats><wheelplan>2 AXLE RIGID BODY</wheelplan><drive_side>RIGHT HAND DRIVE</drive_side><body_description>HATCHBACK</body_description><engine_size>1596</engine_size><engine_number>86DAF26</engine_number><fuel>PETROL</fuel><fuel_delivery>INJECTION</fuel_delivery><max_power>85</max_power><bhp>115</bhp><gearbox_type>MANUAL</gearbox_type><gears>5 GEARS</gears><drive_type>FWD</drive_type><engine_cylinders>4 CYL</engine_cylinders><engine_valves>16V</engine_valves><published_engine_size>1.6 LITRES</published_engine_size><autodata_engine_codes/><co2>157</co2><noise_stationary>81</noise_stationary><noise_engine>4500</noise_engine><noise_drive_by>71</noise_drive_by><keeper_start_date>2010-10-29</keeper_start_date><previous_keepers>2</previous_keepers><prev_keeper_acquire>0000-00-00</prev_keeper_acquire><prev_keeper_dispose>0000-00-00</prev_keeper_dispose><power_to_weight>0</power_to_weight><max_tech_mass>1740</max_tech_mass><gross_weight>0</gross_weight><trailer_braked>1200</trailer_braked><trailer_unbraked>625</trailer_unbraked><smmt_dvla_marque_code>MA</smmt_dvla_marque_code><smmt_dvla_model_code>391</smmt_dvla_model_code><smmt_dvla_description>FOCUS ZETEC CLIMATE 116</smmt_dvla_description><smmt_marque>FORD</smmt_marque><smmt_range>FOCUS</smmt_range><smmt_series>C307</smmt_series><smmt_model_variant_name>ZETEC CLI.
