Hi All,
I am completely new to AJAX.
This is the first program I have come across and I must say I am confused..

Few of my queries are below:

I wrote below code in a notepad and saved as html. But I don't know where to place the "ajax_info.txt" file. It dint work when I placed it in the same folder as the .html file
Also I don't understand and which response are we collecting through xmlhttp.responseText. Because its only on the next line (xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_info.txt",true) that we actually mention the url/path to which we are trying to connect. So whom are we trying to get response from in : xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_info.txt",true

I know its tooooo basic but just cant get a hold of it.



<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function loadXMLDoc()
{
var xmlhttp;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
  xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
else
  {// code for IE6, IE5
  xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
  {
  if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
    {
    document.getElementById("myDiv").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
    }
  }
xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_info.txt",true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
</head>
<body><div id="myDiv"><h2>Let AJAX change this text</h2></div>
<button type="button" onclick="loadXMLDoc()">Change Content</button></body>
</html>
