I know it may come as a surprise but this line should work

If you need a call back just add the attribute callback="function" wherein the returned info is the parameter. Parameterizing it is taken care of already for you. $ git Clone https://GitHub.com/wise-penny/pipes If you want to see

Subject: Re: Ajax query
You do not need to "load" ajax. The object is built into _javascript_. But there a newer versions
that the xmlHttpRequestObject.
In general, your ajax request must be initiated by a user event such as mouse click or a keydown
event. So that has to be written in. Also there is a sequence for intiating the ajax request that must
be adhered to. THEN, on the server side there has to be PHP or other serverside code to recognize
and handle the request and return a response if there should be one. The last phase if there is a
response expected is for _javascript_ to handle the response.
Mostly, the ajax request is done ASYNCRONISTICALLY. That just means that a response will NOT
cause the browser window to reload. So state can be maintained. In technical terms it means that
the request is done outside of the browsers main thread.
A page initiating the request can process its response. But that is tricky to program.
It essentially means that the PHP that process the request must exist above the
DTD declaration and 'exit' as soon as it completes the request. It must also call
header() and issue a header indicating the type of response: text, json, whatever.
Then it uses print or echo to sent the response body. Then exit must called to prevent
any html from being generated.
1 header()
2 print (or echo) response body
3 exit
The newer version of asyncronous requests is more difficult and less intuitive.
