I've been playing around trying to find it with something like this in
my js function.
try {
alert(request.responseText);
}
catch(err) {
alert (err.toString());
}
but both the request and response objects are undefined (don't exist).
By trial and error I found there's an "Ajax" object and an
"XMLHttpRequest" object defined in the scope, but I can't get any
responseText out of them. I think the answer lies in the prototype
library, as that's where these callback functions are defined, but I
can't quite figure it out from perusing the docs. Anyway, thanks, I'll
post back if I figure it out! (I think I'll post another topic with
this specific question in it)
