With this function: 

function start() {
MONDUX();
Biggie();
}

function MONDUX executes, and the AJAX call returns good data and is displayed correctly.
However, Biggie() is a.w.a.l.

The result of this : 

function start() {
Biggie();
MONDUX();
}

is the opposite. Biggie() works as expected, MONUX() fails.

This doesn’t do any good, down in the body: 

<script type="text/JavaScript">
window.onload= start();
</script>

and, this dodge is not helpful: 

<body onload="start()">

and that was tried like so also

    You’re assigning the request to the global variable xmlhttp, and then reassigning that variable to another request before the first one has returned. I don’t know if that is causing your problem, but it’s definitely going to cause a problem. It’s also very bad JavaScript practice.

    Simple fix is to put the line ‘var xmlhttp;’ at the beginning of both functions.

    Edit: Just in case you didn’t know this: xmlhttprequest is asynchronous. You call ‘send’, and your remaining statements in the script and document continue to run while the request is being sent to the server. Only after the server returns do the various callback methods (onreadystatechange, and the like) get called, and this is long after your alerts were shown.
