Problem with XML

[johnwhitham]

I'm trying a “Hello world” exercise with XML and have hit a problem.

I have a textinput (id input1) a textbox (id text1) and a button with the following code attached:


OpenXMLUrl("http://www.john.whitham.me.uk/hippo/first.php?request="+InputGet("input1"), Result);
function Result(XML){
if(XML.status==200){
if(XML.documentElement.nodeName=="response"){
TextBoxSet("text1",XML.documentElement.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue);
}
}else{
alert(XML.status+" Error!!!");
}
}
This works perfectly in the embedded viewer (versions 2 and 3) but when deployed to the server the xmlhttp object is null. Tested in IE and Chrome.

Oops, sorry. Please ignore the preceding, I had forgotten to set the header type to XML in the PHP side of the transaction. All works fine now.
