I finally have a working ajax script, it's from a tutorial and i have altered it to my liking.I have some questions regarding it. Here's the code.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
//scanner AJAX
function Ajax()
{
var scanner;
try
{
scanner=new XMLHttpRequest();// Firefox, Opera 8.0+, Safari
}
catch (e)
{
try
{
scanner=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP"); // Internet Explorer
}
catch (e)
{
try
{
scanner=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e)
{
alert("Your browser has no ajax support!"); return false;
}
}
}
scanner.onreadystatechange=function()
{
if(scanner.readyState==4)
{
document.getElementById('scanner').innerHTML=scanner.responseText;
setTimeout('Ajax()',2000);
}
}
scanner.open("GET","navscanner.php",true);
scanner.send(null);
}
window.onload=function()
{
setTimeout('Ajax()',2000);
}
</script>
So this outputs a table inside a div in my page that i generate with navscanner.php
Now i have a lot more div's to be filled like this. And i'm kinda stuck to where to put the new code.
1) Do i need to make the browser check each time i do a ajax request?
2)If i need more divs to refresh each 2 second like above code can i use the above code to make that happen or do i need a totally new function?
3)same question as 3 but for div's that need to get loaded on start and when a player clicks something. Can i put all this code inside the Ajax function or do i need sepperate functions for each?
