Looks great Shane. Remember that you don't need to use RPG to use AJAX. You
can retrieve data straight from your IFS. In my case, it is recurring text to
be displayed on a web page ticker.

Subject: Re: [WEB400] AJAX
Wow...thanks to all who have given feedback and suggestions on this...I
really appreciate it...
Here's how I got a small amount AJAX to work using CGIDEV2...
HTML file ajaxtest.html
-----------------------
<html>
<head>
<script src="firstnameajax.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
First Name:
<input type="text" id="txt1"
onkeyup="showHint(this.value)">
</form>
<p>Suggestions: <span id="txtHint"></span></p>
</body>
</html>
Javascript file firstnameajax.js
--------------------------------
var xmlHttp
function showHint(str) {
if (str.length==0) {
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML="";
return;
}
xmlHttp = GetXmlHttpObject();
if (xmlHttp==null) {
alert ("Browser does not support HTTP Request");
return;
}
var url = "/cgi-bin/ajxfirstnm";
url = url + "?q=" + str;
url = url + "&sid=" + Math.random();
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = stateChanged;
xmlHttp.open("GET",url,true);
xmlHttp.send(null);
}
function stateChanged() {
if (xmlHttp.readyState == 4 || xmlHttp.readyState == "complete") {
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML = xmlHttp.responseText;
}
}
function GetXmlHttpObject() {
var objXMLHttp = null;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
objXMLHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else if (window.ActiveXObject) {
objXMLHttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
return objXMLHttp;
}
SQLRPGLE Program AJXFIRSTNM
