Can anyone please advise why this wont work ? The fisrt page of code reads
data from a database and populates combobox, depending on the selection made
the second combobox can be poputated, but the second procedure
(select_via_ajax_include.asp ) does not return the variables in the function
call ajaxcombo(sql, selectobjID, loadarea), can anyone advise ?
