Ok so I have two separate AJAX function that I want to combine but have no idea how. The first 2 files are to call up a table with cells in the form of text-boxes, and the last 2 files are linked dropboxes.

What I want to do is to call the table when the value of the 'company' dropbox is changed based on the '$val' of that selection.

Please read the codes to get a better idea:

testform.php

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>

<form>
Select a User:
<select name="users" onchange="showUser(this.value)">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
[B]//these will return the query only for company with company_id 1-4[/B]
</form>
<br />
<div id="[B]txtHint[/B]"><b>Company info will be listed here.</b></div>

</body>
</html> 

<script language=Javascript>
var xmlhttp;

function showUser(str)
{
xmlhttp=GetXmlHttpObject();
if (xmlhttp==null)
  {
  alert ("Browser does not support HTTP Request");
  return;
  }
var url="[B]getuser.php[/B]";
url=url+"?q="+str;
url=url+"&sid="+Math.random();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=stateChanged;
xmlhttp.open("GET",url,true);
xmlhttp.send(null);
}

function stateChanged()
{
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4)
{
document.getElementById("[B]txtHint[/B]").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}

function GetXmlHttpObject()
{
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {
  return new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
if (window.ActiveXObject)
  {
  return new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }
return null;
}
</script>

getuser.php

<?php
$q=$_GET["q"];

include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clientconf/conf/config.php');
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clientconf/conf/opendb.php');

$sql="SELECT * FROM location WHERE company_id = '".$q."'";

$result = mysql_query($sql);

echo "<table>
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<th>State</th>
<th>Block</th>
<th>Street</th>
<th>Building</th>
<th>Unit</th>
<th>Postal</th>
</tr>";

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
  echo "<tr>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"10\" value=\"" . $row['name'] . 

"\"></td>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"10\" value=\"" . $row['state'] . 

"\"></td>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"6\" value=\"" . $row['blk_no'] . 

"\"></td>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"50\" value=\"" . $row['street'] . 

"\"></td>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"15\" value=\"" . $row['building'] 

. "\"></td>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"6\" value=\"" . $row['unit_no'] . 

"\"></td>";
  echo "<td><input type=\"text\" name=\"locname\" size=\"6\" value=\"" . $row['postal'] . 

"\"></td>";
  echo "</tr>";
  }
echo "</table>";

include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clientconf/conf/closedb.php');

?>

actualform.php (this is how I want my form to look like)

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>

<form>
<table align="center">
<tr><td align="left"><b>Country:</b></td>
<td><font id=country><select>
<option value='0'>No Value</option></td>
<tr><td align="left"><b>Company:</b></td>
<td><font id=company><select onchange="[B]showuser(this.value)[/B]">
<option value='0'>No Value</option></select></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
<br />
<div id="[B]txtHint[/B]"></div>

</body>
</html> 

<script language=Javascript>

//I didn't include the "showuser" function here coz it's not working anw

function Inint_AJAX() {
try { return new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");  } catch(e) {}
try { return new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } catch(e) {}
try { return new XMLHttpRequest();          } catch(e) {}
alert("XMLHttpRequest not supported");
return null;
};

function dochange(src, val) {
var req = Inint_AJAX();
req.onreadystatechange = function () {
 if (req.readyState==4) {
      if (req.status==200) {
           document.getElementById(src).innerHTML=req.responseText;  
}
 }
};
req.open("GET", "[B]dropdown.php[/B]?data="+src+"&val="+val);
req.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=iso-8859-

1");
req.send(null);
}

window.onLoad=dochange('country', -1);
window.onLoad=dochange('company', -1);
</script>

dropdown.php

<?
$data=$_GET['data'];
$val=$_GET['val'];

include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clientconf/conf/config.php');
include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clientconf/conf/opendb.php');

if ($data=='country') {
  echo "<select name='country'
  onChange=\"dochange('company', this.value)\">\n";

  echo "<option value='0'>======Select======</option>\n";

  $result=mysql_query("SELECT country_id, name 
		       FROM country 
                       ORDER BY name") 
		       or exit (mysql_error());

  while(list($id, $name)=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
       echo "<option value=\"$id\" >$name</option> \n" ;
  }
} else if ($data=='company') {
  echo "<select name='company'>\n";

  echo "<option value='0'>======Select======</option>\n";

  $result=mysql_query("SELECT c.company_id, c.name 
		       FROM company c, country co 
 		       WHERE c.country_id = co.country_id
		       AND c.country_id = '$val'
                       ORDER BY c.name") 
		       or exit (mysql_error());

  while(list($id, $name)=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
       echo "<option value=\"$id\" >$name</option> \n" ;  
  }
}

echo "</select>\n";

include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/clientconf/conf/closedb.php');

?>

Ok, forget it... I solved it...
