XMLHttpRequest with PHP - IE Issues

[freeze21]

the following is working fine with Firefox but it only will update once with IE6 and IE7, and then continues to return the same page every time its called.  any ideas?

 

Thanks

 

----------------------------

 

 

var xmlhttp = null

 

  function updatePlayer()

  {

 

//    alert("Updating Player");

 

    if(xmlhttp==null){

//      alert("IS NULL");

      xmlhttp = FactoryXMLHttpRequest();

    }

    else if(xmlhttp){

//      alert("is aborting");

      xmlhttp.abort();

    }

 

 

    if(xmlhttp){

//      alert('is getting');

 

      xmlhttp.open('POST', 'update.php', false);

      xmlhttp.send(null);

      document.getElementById('my_div').innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;

//      alert ('response got');

    }

  }

Thast because IE uses ActiveXObject instead - and this is ajax/js question not php.

FactoryXMLHttpRequest() returns an activeX object if its in IE.  It works the first time, the 2nd, 3rd, .. Nth, calls though all return the same PHP page, not an updated one.

 

I will try posting in a JS forum.  I don't think its ajax related though because I don't think im using anything async.

 

Is there a different way to set an innerdiv = a php page?

 

That would be a better solution for me, but I can't seem to find another way to set it.

 

Thanks.

Does your browser detect any js errors?
