Andy,
I'm assuming (and please tell me if I'm wrong here, Rick) that Rick is
just using this as an example to get himself comfortable with Ajax
concepts. Have I read too much into your post Rick?
Btw, Rick, I'm writing a response, but work just stepped in the way
again so I've had to put it on hold for the moment. Hopefully, you won't
have to wait too long for help from me or anyone else who wants to take
a crack at helping you out. :o)
Cheers,
Chris

Rick...
To be honest, if you're just performing calculations on the values
from the form fields, you don't even need an AJAX call.
Just do the math in javascript. It'll be faster and seem more
responsive to the user.

Hi, all...
I've just started using jQuery recently and now
I'm trying to understand how to use it with AJAX
and I just don't know enough about how it works
to get started on a fairly simple app. The sample app I've
been tinkering with sends a URL variable for a User_ID
using AJAX to a CF page, which runs a query and
returns the info to the calling page and appends
it to the body. I'd like to send results back to the
form fields, as well as the calculated result.
I just don't have a clue how to set this up.
I have a mortgage calculator and I want the user
to be able to enter the principal, interest rate,
and duration in years, then run a calculation on it
and return the result.
I've set this up in a regular form that submits back
to the page it's on and it works fine. It's coded in CF.
I'd like to be able to calculate and return the results using AJAX.
I've worked some very simple code using AJAX (actually
it was given to me), but I have no idea how to code for
the above scenario.
Would anyone care to give this CF'er some guidance
on creating this small jQuery/CF/AJAX app?
Thanks for any help!
Rick
