Yes that should be possible.
change searchLocationsNear slighty:
function searchbyFilm() {
var query = document.getElementById('filmName').value;
var searchUrl = 'phpsqlsearch_genxml.php?q='+ encodeURIComponent(query);
.....
where filmName is a textbox for the user to enter their query. You
then call this function directly when the user clicks the search box.
Then the PHP code does uses the q param to search the database, mayby
a 'LIKE' or even a Full-Text search on the film name.
