Hi
I need to make script that creates drop-down list from text file (new line in text file – new line in drop-down list). Somebody told me that I should use Ajax and XMLHttpRequest for that, so I have found on internet script that can write content from text file on screen, but I don’t know how to modify it to write it in drop-down list.
How to add reference.value to make values for drop-down?
This is it:

This is it:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>XMLHttpRequest Object GET Request</title>
</head>
<body>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
// request variable
var request_var;
// Request object method wrapper function
function request_object()
{
try
{
return new ActiveXObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP');
}
catch(e)
{
try
{
return new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP');
}
catch(e)
{
return new XMLHttpRequest();
}
}
}
// Call the request object method wrapper function
request_var=request_object();
if(!request_var)
{
alert("Your Web browser does not support the XMLHttpRequest object.");
}
function load()
{
if(request_var.readyState==4)
{
document.getElementById('elements_id').innerHTML=request_var.responseText;
}
}
function call()
{
if(request_var)
{
d=document;
request_var.open("GET","textfile.txt",true);
request_var.onreadystatechange=load;
request_var.send(null);
}
}
//-->
</script>
<div id="elements_id"></div>
<a onclick="call()" href="#">XnMLHttpRequest Object GET Request</a>
</body>
</html>
