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?

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...
