Hi,

Use XMLHTTPRequest for that (Also known as AJAX).
Start by reading through the tutorial:
http://www.w3schools.com/ajax/default.asp

From here on I suggest you finish it in comp.lang.javascript.
This has clearly nothing to do with PHP anymore (which is working fine
as you claim).

One last question, if you don't mind:
I noticed a guy named Corvet in comp.lang.javascript asking the same
questions and posting the code I posted to you, even the first one with
a mistake in it.

Why are you astral here, and Corvet over there?

Regards,
Erwin Moller
