Example Explained - The HTML Page
When a user chooses an option above, a function called "getVote()" is executed. The function is triggered by the "onclick" event:
<html>
<head>
<script>
function getVote(int) {
var xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() {
if (this.readyState==4 && this.status==200) {
document.getElementById("poll").innerHTML=this.responseText;
}
}
xmlhttp.open("GET","poll_vote.php?vote="+int,true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="poll">
