Question

I had asked this question before, but I got no correct answer.

So, this is a simple thing:

textbox.text='user typing';

Button: store the value to a variable and a database.

Very simple, nothing to it.
But there should be no post back, that is the page must not load again.

Try Ajax? I tried it, but it is not working.

I lost a lot of time trying to implement this using JavaScript Ajax and read many many posts.

But for some reason I cannot implement the functionality correctly.

   var xmlHttp; 
   var is_ie = (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('MSIE') >= 0) ? 1 : 0; 
    var is_ie5 = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE 5.5")!=-1) ? 1 : 0; 
    var is_opera = ((navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera6")!=-1)||(navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Opera/6")!=-1)) ? 1 : 0; 
    //netscape, safari, mozilla behave the same??? 
    var is_netscape = (navigator.userAgent.indexOf('Netscape') >= 0) ? 1 : 0; 

    function btnClick(){ 
        if (strReportURL.length > 0)
        { 

            //Create the xmlHttp object to use in the request 
            //stateChangeHandler will fire when the state has changed, i.e. data is received back 
            // This is non-blocking (asynchronous) 
            xmlHttp = GetXmlHttpObject(handler); 
            //Send the xmlHttp get to the specified url 
            xmlHttp_Get(xmlHttp, "AjaxHanlder.aspx?Data="+txtData.Text,handler); 

        } 

    }

            //Gather the results from the callback 
            var result = xmlHttp.responseText; 

            //Populate the innerHTML of the div with the results 
            document.getElementById('lblResult').innerHTML = result;

        if (is_ie){ 
            //The object to create depends on version of IE 
            //If it isn't ie5, then default to the Msxml2.XMLHTTP object

            catch(e){ 
            //Object creation errored 
                alert('IE detected, but object could not be created. Verify that active scripting and activeX controls are enabled'); 
                return; 
            } 
        } 
        else if (is_opera){ 
            //Opera has some issues with xmlHttp object functionality 
            alert('Opera detected. The page may not behave as expected.'); 
            return; 
        } 
        else{ 
            // Mozilla | Netscape | Safari
