I am trying to add Ajax to Chris M's
Latest Threads on Forumhome plugin because i found this is a great add on for forumhome. My problem i am not a coder at all maybe i can call myself as a beginner :smoke:
I've read a lot of tutorials about Ajax and here is the part which i am stuck at. The threadbits i am trying to get is a plugin

and i need a php to recall the data. Is there a way to skip this part ?
Code:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
var sendReq = getXmlHttpRequestObject();
var receiveReq = getXmlHttpRequestObject();
var lastMessage = 0;
var mTimer;
//Function for initializating the page.
function startthreads() {
document.getElementById('threadbits').focus();
getthreadbits();
}
function getXmlHttpRequestObject() {
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
return new XMLHttpRequest();
} else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
return new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} else {
document.getElementById('p_status').innerHTML = 'Status: Cound not create XmlHttpRequest Object. Consider upgrading your browser.';
}
}
//Gets the current messages from the server
function getthreadbits() {
if (receiveReq.readyState == 4 || receiveReq.readyState == 0) {
receiveReq.open("GET", 'whatinhere' + lastthread, true);
receiveReq.onreadystatechange = handleReceivethreads;
receiveReq.send(null);
}
}</script>
Help will be really appriciated.
