Ajax in IE < v7

Hello,

I have a IE issue to resolve. Using the code found here, http://www.wrgd.com/assets/js/ajax-get-set.js, my AJAX calls send and recieve fine in FF and IE 7, but in earlier IE versions like 6.0.2900..... especially it fails. All it returns is "Started..." which is at line 87. How can i make this work in IE < v7?

There has to be a fix out there. Thanks for all your help.

 

Hi

The problem for IE6 is your getData function does not create a valid ActiveXObject. Replace these lines:

 if(window.XMLHttpRequest)
  req = new XMLHttpRequest();
 else if (window.ActiveXObject)
  req  = new ActiveXObject(Microsoft.XMLHTTP);

HTML:

with

                                var req; 
				try
				{
					req = new XMLHttpRequest();
				}
				catch (e1)
				{ 
					// Internet Explorer Browsers
					try
					{ 
						req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
					}
					catch (e2) 
					{ 
						
						try
						{ 
							req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
						}
						catch (e3)
						{ 
							return false;
						}
					}
				}

that works perfectly. thank so much.
