Nice tutorialm although it might make people stop thinking I am a magician :-) .

BTW There is a minor typo in the example code:

In function handleresponse:

document.getElementById(update[0]).innerHTML = pdate[1];

pdate should be update of course.

Thanks for bringing the typo to my attention. It’s been fixed.

Cheers!

I like it, especially as it promotes small is beautiful. Have you considering putting in on digg.com?

There again my “smallest” AJAX example got called crap!! :(

Hi,

First off. Great tutorial. It think I search the web for an hour just for a simple explanation.

Second. It is a bit late here but I think there is a minor bug in the tutorial

if(response.indexOf(‘|’ != -1)
shouldn’t that be
if(response.indexOf(‘|’ )!= -1

Anyway thanks, keep up the good work.

Cheers, Ron AF Greve

The Script doesn’t work! Can anyone paste the whole two files, please? Thanks!

Henning Mann,

There’s nothing to paste. The ‘whole two files’ code is there on the page.

Since it’s work for others, you may be doing something wrong for it not to work.
