Whats wrong with my script?

I spent a little while, I can't find why my script won't work.

 

http://www.bluebob88.com/matt/racing/chat.php

 

That is the demo, it should (in the loading... section) show a blank area, since ajax.php is blank.

 

The message, if you hit enter, I don't think it should reset, and I don't think my sendRequest object is working proper.  If anyone could take a look at the script I would really appreciate it.

 

function createRequestObject() {
   var req;
   if(window.XMLHttpRequest){
      // Firefox, Safari, Opera...
      req = new XMLHttpRequest();
   } else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
      // Internet Explorer 5+
      req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
   } else {
      // There is an error creating the object,
      // just as an old browser is being used.
      alert('Problem creating the XMLHttpRequest object');
   }
   return req;

}

function handleDivTag(divtag)
{
   var divtag;
   return divtag;
}

// Make the XMLHttpRequest object
var http = createRequestObject();


// Create the Divtag Handler -- Mainly an IE 6 Fix
var divhandler = new handleDivTag(null);

function sendRequest(act,divtag) {
   // Open PHP script for requests
   http.open('get', 'ajax.php?act='+act);
   http.onreadystatechange = handleResponse;
   divhandler.divtag = divtag;
   http.send(null);

}

function handleResponse() {

   if(http.readyState == 4 && http.status == 200){
   
      // Text returned FROM the PHP script
      var response = http.responseText;

      if(response) {
         // UPDATE ajaxTest content
         document.getElementById(divhandler.divtag).innerHTML = response;
      }

   }

} 

 

Thats AJAX.js.

 

Now here is chat.php.

<html>
<head>
<title>AJAX Example</title>
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript" src="/ajax.js"></script>
</head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function timingex( ){
setTimeout("sendRequest('chat', 'chat');",100);
}
// -->
</script>
<body onLoad="timingex( )">

<div id="chat" align="center">
Chat loading...

</div>
<br /><br />
<div align="center">Message: <form name="message" onsubmit="sendRequest(message.msg.value, 'chat'); message.msg.value = '';"><input type="text" name="msg" /></form></div>


</body>
</html> 

 

 

I don't see what is wrong with it, please help.
