[RESOLVED] [AJAX/Javascript & PHP] Send Form using POST Method to a PHP page.

Please give me a very simple working example.

I'm totally a newbie in PHP & AJAX.

Thanks,

I'm trying to do this one but still not successful.

This is the page:

Code:

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ajaxFunction()
  {  var xmlHttp;
  try
    {    // Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari    
	xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();    
	}
  catch (e)
    {    // Internet Explorer    
	try
      {      
	  xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");      
	  }
    catch (e)
      {      
	  try
        {        
		xmlHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");        
		}
      catch (e)
        {        alert("Your browser does not support AJAX!");        
		return false;
		}
	  }    
   }
    
  	var params = "Name="+document.MyForm.Name.value;
    xmlHttp.open("GET","welcome.php",true);
	xmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); 
	xmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length);
	xmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
	xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=function()
      {
      if(xmlHttp.readyState==4 && xmlHttp.status == 200)
        {
        alert(xmlHttp.responseText);//document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlHttp.responseText;
        }
      }
    xmlHttp.send(params);  
	}
	</script>
	<form action="javascript:ajaxFunction();" method="POST" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="MyForm">
		<input type="text" name="Name"/>
		<input type="submit"/>
	</form>
	<div id="divContents">	
	</div>
</body>

And the welcome.php:

PHP Code:


Good day <?php echo $_POST["Name"]; return 0;?>.

What should I do?

Oh my, I found what is wrong.
xmlHttp.open("GET","welcome.php",true);
It GET should be POST.

But I always see this error message at the last line: "Error in my_thread_global_end():1 threads didn't exit".

How to solve this?

There's a a bug with libmysql.dll in PHP 5.2.2.
To resolve this, the libmysql.dll must be replaced by the one from PHP 5.2.1.
