[leonidassavvides]

I know how to get
registerRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
DATA from a request and enter them in database or response(echo) via ajax/php, well what if that ajax data were in xml (Basic) format, how in php parse/process them like prior?
give URLs...


function registerUser() {
t = setInterval("scrollImages()", 50);
document.getElementById("register").value = "Processing...";
registerRequest = createRequest();
if (registerRequest == null) {
alert("Unable to create request.");
} else {
var url = "register-feedback.php";
var requestData = "username=" +
escape(document.getElementById("username").value) + "&password=" +
escape(document.getElementById("password1").value) + "&firstname=" +
escape(document.getElementById("firstname").value) + "&lastname=" +
escape(document.getElementById("lastname").value) + "&email=" +
escape(document.getElementById("email").value) + "&genre=" +
escape(document.getElementById("genre").value) + "&favorite=" +
escape(document.getElementById("favorite").value) + "&tastes=" +
escape(document.getElementById("tastes").value);
registerRequest.onreadystatechange = registrationProcessed;
registerRequest.open("POST", url, true);
registerRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-Type",
"application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
registerRequest.send(requestData);
}
}

function registrationProcessed() {
if (registerRequest.readyState == 4) {
if (registerRequest.status == 200) {
document.getElementById('wrapper').innerHTML =
registerRequest.responseText;
}
}
}
