What's wrong with this...

[jboesch]

Hi all! Could anyone tell me why this wont work...
The function works when i remove the (ver) after "stateChanged" (inside showCat function). What I'm doing is I want to use this function more than once, so Im combining PHP to throw in a variable in showcat(str,ver). The ver is where the integer goes and auto-increments using a for loop that is being called through PHP
This is my PHP... (which works fine)..

<select name="blah" onchange="showCat(ver,$i)">
<option>blah</option>
</select>

... however the ajax wont work!

Please help!

<script type="text/javascript">
var xmlHttp

function showCat(str,ver)
{
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject()
if (xmlHttp==null)
{
alert ("Browser does not support HTTP Request")
return
}
var url="getcat.php"
url=url+"?id="+str
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged(ver)
xmlHttp.open("GET",url,true)
xmlHttp.send(null)
}

function stateChanged(ber)
{
if (xmlHttp.readyState==4 || xmlHttp.readyState=="complete")
{
document.getElementById("txtHint"+ber).innerHTML=x mlHttp.responseText
}
}

function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
var objXMLHttp=null
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{
objXMLHttp=new XMLHttpRequest()
}
else if (window.ActiveXObject)
{
objXMLHttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
}
return objXMLHttp
}
</script>

Just at the first glance...

str and ver are reversed in function call and function declaration. I'm not saying that this is the cause for sure...

Have you tried to use Firebug to see if there are any javascript errors?
