binxalot Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Here is what I'm trying to do. I found a small ajax "Jah" script on the web and I'm trying to get it to work with a form on my site. Instead of using a regular menu drop down list, I figured it would be cool to use the jah to insert a list of pictures from a separate php file into my form. The User clicks a picture, the picture is a URL with a link (mypick.php?pick=somepicture) to another JAH page which will use GET function to insert that "somepicture" into a <FORM type="hidden" value="$somepicture get variable"> which is what becomes the final JAH insert after the user has finally picked their picture. This is the Jah script: function jah(url,target) { // native XMLHttpRequest object document.getElementById(target).innerHTML = '<img src="loadingbubbler.gif">'; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { req = new XMLHttpRequest(); req.onreadystatechange = function() {jahDone(target);}; req.open("GET", url, true); req.send(null); // IE/Windows ActiveX version } else if (window.ActiveXObject) { req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); if (req) { req.onreadystatechange = function() {jahDone(target);}; req.open("GET", url, true); req.send(); } } } function jahDone(target) { // only if req is "loaded" if (req.readyState == 4) { // only if "OK" if (req.status == 200) { results = req.responseText; document.getElementById(target).innerHTML = results; } else { document.getElementById(target).innerHTML="jah error:\n" + req.statusText; } } } The problem, so far as I can tell, is that the hidden form field that is inserted via the JAH insert, never ends up getting parsed by the form SUBMIT button. How do I get these variables to parse from the main form? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binxalot Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 Nevermind, I never cease to confirm that I am a retard. The script works perfectly fine, I had a problem with the "name" of my hidden form field. Grrrr... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
