heya folks,
as per this thread: http://www.chronoengine.com/forums/index.php?option=com_chronoforums&cont=posts&f=2&t=15549&p=39105&hilit=mizpah#p39105 we now have a pretty complex form going on - and we are into one of the last parts, the ajax works,sql queries work, webservice works - and im still going insane with trying to get my php $variables over into Javascript!!
it seems the solution is to use regex to grab them from responceText as per (something like) this code snippet:
xmlhttp.responceText contains this output:
So, one line looks like this "Combined_Make = GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED<br />", Yet the regex returns 'Combined_Make = GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED<,GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED' when I use alert to examine the var.
Now what Im after in 'GRAND CHEROKEE LIMITED'
Can anyone explain how to modify the regex to show me the text between 'Combined_Make = ' and '<' only ? ultimately I need to return it to a var, and use it to change a field on the fly (for multiple fields/vars),
Heres the culprit again! xmlhttp.responseText.match(/Combined_Make =(.*?)</);
I hope thats all clear, thanks very much in advance!
