//3) ajaxpack.basedomain //The root domain executing this ajax script, taking into account the possible "www" prefix.
//4) ajaxpack.addrandomnumber //Set to 0 or 1. When set to 1, a random number will be added to the end of the query string of GET requests to bust file caching of the external file in IE. See docs for more info.

/////1) GET Example- alert contents of any file (regular text or xml file):

ajaxpack.getAjaxRequest("example.php", "", processGetPost, "txt")
ajaxpack.getAjaxRequest("example.php", "name=George&age=27", processGetPost, "txt")

/////2) Post Example- Post some data to a PHP script for processing, then alert posted data:

//Define function to construct the desired parameters and their values to post via Ajax
function getPostParameters(){
var namevalue=document.getElementById("namediv").innerHTML //get name value from a DIV
var agevalue=document.getElementById("myform").agefield.value //get age value from a form field
