If I have understood you correctly, using prototype (and not other
frameworks) this is the solution:
- You define tasks for your php file
query.php?task=listItems&search=adam
query.php?task=autocomplete&id=3
at the top of your php put a switch:
switch( $task ) {
case 'listItems':
myFuncListItems($search);
break;
case 'autocomplete':
myFuncAutocomplete($id);
break;
}
this way you can call the same php for different (ajax) tasks.
Hope it helps you.

No what you said was perfect, and the stuff from the others helped with the
other piece. I do have one other question, if this is a php form and I
include a script with functions, how would I call the functions rather then
a php page and pass params with the autocomplete?
new Ajax.Autocompleter('rep','updaterep','acQuery.php', {paramName:
"q",minChars: 1, afterUpdateElement: updateHidden });
new Ajax.Autocompleter('rep','updaterep','<?=acQuery()?>',
{paramName: "q",minChars: 1, afterUpdateElement: updateHidden });

(that doc is for version 1.4, but Ajax.Request hasn't changed since then,
AFAIK).
