Alex,
I have tried various options but the returned text still flashes by!
I have checked that at the start of the function with the code I have
shonw in it, flag10 is false and flaglast is true and indeed the right
code is used as the right values get into mysql (i.e. those using the
second set of Ajax code).
So I still don't see why the text from the php flashes before my eyes!
I must be still missing some thing!
Cheers
