FORMS within AJAX Div's...?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to populate a DIV from a PHP page that holds an HTML form, using AJAX. Is this possible?

 

What I'm finding is that the information is called from the remote PHP page populates fine if it's not part of a <form></form> tag, but will not populate if it is part of one.

 

Can anyone help?

 

Cheers,

Woolyg

I don't quit understand exactly what you mean, but try this and see if it is what your looking for:

 

<script type="text/javascript">
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("You Browser Does Not Support This Site's Content");
      alert("Please Upgrade Your Browser Immediately");
   }

   return req;

}

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

function sendRequest() {

   // Open PHP script for requests
   http.open('get', 'FormPage.php');
   http.onreadystatechange = handleResponse;
   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("myDIV").innerHTML = response;
      }

   }

}
</script>

<div id="myDIV">

</div>

<a href="javascript:sendRequest()">get form</a>

 

 

FormPage.php

 

<?php

echo "<form method=\"post\">
Name: <input type=\"text\" name=\"Name\">
</form>";

?>
