[SOLVED] determining AJAX response type (JSON or HTML)

[scott212]

Is there a way (besides RegEx) to determine the response type from an AJAX request? Here's the code that I'm trying:

[code]
if (xmlHttp.readyState==4) { // show results
  var respObj = eval('('+xmlHttp.responseText+')');
  if (respObj.message) {
      document.getElementById('ax_search_main').innerHTML = "<div class=\"createProfile_labels\">"+respObj.message+"</div>";
      ax_process();
  } else {
document.getElementById('ax_search_main').innerHTML = xmlHttp.responseText;
  }
}[/code]

I figured it out, ended up passing an id in JSON and doing a js search for it
