You don't need to use XML with XmlHTTPRequest. The returned data can be a simple text string. XmlHTTPRequest is the best javascript technology to come out. It's done wonders for the interactivity of my websites. It's well worth the time to learn. -----Original Message----- From: Death Gauge [mailto:clay_hg@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Saturday, August 27, 2005 8:17 PM To: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Re: Need advice or code I would do that but my preferences don't include XML. Right now I code in just PHP/MySQL/Javascript/Java/C++/ASM and that is it(of course C++ and ASM don't count as web languages heh). --Death Gauge "How do you gauge your death?!" Maybe try a bit of XmlHTTPRequest and some Javascript. When the first item is selected (and maybe a submit button is pressed) it goes to the XmlHTTPRequest script, gets the data from a php script and echos the output. I'm only a beginner on XmlHTTPRequest, so I can't help you code-wise.
