Hi,

I'm new to using Ajax so bare with me if i say anyting silly. :)

I'm trying to insert comments into a mysql DB and immediately (no page refresh) show it on the same page as the comments form I use to insert the comment, somewhere in another div, obviously using Ajax.

I'm familiar with the fact that when i want to send some data to a server (insert the comment in the DB in my case) I need to use a POST method, whereas when retrieving data from the server I need a GET method (to retrieve the comment data from the DB).

Problem is I have no idea how to put together these 2 concepts and use them both at once (this includes both the php code and the Ajax request being on the same page).

Also I'm having trouble figuring out how the POST method actually works with Ajax so I'd appreciate a working example, not necesarily related to the comment problem above.

Thoughts?
