Basically, I'm trying to use AJAX to take the results of a JS script that has different results for ever visitor, and pushes it back into php, where I make it a variable and write it to an internal file.

Here is my main code, with the function script taken out.


<form name="inputform">
<input name="line" value="line">

<script language="javascript">
function thefunction() {
...
...
...
...
}
</script>
</input>
</form>

var http = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "ProcessingPage.php";
var params = "value1=" + new Date().getTime();
http.open("POST", url, true);

http.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
http.setRequestHeader("Content-length"... params.length);
http.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");

http.onreadystatechange = thefunction() {
if(http.readyState == 4 && http.status == 200) {
// this is notification of the php processing result - you would probably deal with that with xml
document.getElementById("notification"... = http.responseText;
}
}
http.send(params);
<?
$result = $_POST['line'];
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$fp = fopen('file.txt', 'a');
fwrite($fp, $result);
fclose($fp);

} else {
echo "Script Failed";
}
?>


So let's say the result to the JS script was like:
your main password is: hampster12
your second main password is: dogs456
...etc.

I want those lines to be sent into a php script so:
$variable = "your main password is: hampster12 < br />
your second main password is: dogs456 < br />"


For the life of me, I spent the last couple days mindlessly trying to figure this out. I can't. :\

Wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to write an AJAX script to take the custom JS script results, and push them into a php script, even though php runs before JS.

What you're asking isn't possible.

All AJAX calls always initiate a SECOND call - the first being the one that loads the page.

Sorry!

You need to find a way of transferring the data that needs to be processed from the first to the second call, through session data, a file or a database.

The PHP page called by the JavaScript code is called "livesearch.php".
The code searches an XML filIf there is any text sent from the JavaScript (strlen($q) > 0), the following happens:
1. PHP creates an XML DOM object of the "links.xml" file
2. Loops through all <title> elements to find titles that match the text sent from the JavaScript
3. Sets the correct link and title in the "$response" variable. If more than one match is found, all matches are added to the variable
4. If no matches are found, the $response variable is set to "no suggestion"
5. Output the $respone variable to the "livesearch" placeholder
e for titles matching the search string and returns the result as HTML:
