I have the function below but when I try to run it in firefox i get the error "xmlhttp.Open is not a function" this does not happen in google chrome however have I missed some code converting from the ActiveXObject? The PAGE parameter is set and works for the ActiveXObject in Internet Explorer
function broker(PAGE,PARAMARR,STARTPARAM)
{
var postdata=getPostData();
var ua=navigator.userAgent;
var msie=ua.indexOf ('MSIE ');
//var xmlhttp =null;
if (msie!=-1)
{
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject('MSXML2.XMLHTTP');
xmlhttp.Open('POST',PAGE,false);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8");
}
else {
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.Open('POST',PAGE,false);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8");
}
var paramno,param;
for (paramno=STARTPARAM;paramno<PARAMARR.length;paramno++)
{
param=PARAMARR[paramno];if (param==void 0) param='';
if (param===true) param=-1;
if (param===false) param=0;
postdata=postdata+'&Parameter='+encodeURIComponent(param);
}
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader('Content-Length', postdata.length);
xmlhttp.send(postdata);
var response=new String(xmlhttp.responseText);
var brkmsg=getMessage(response);
return brkmsg;
}
