Ajax doesn't work sometimes

[mor_mah]

I use the following code :

function createXHR() {
var request = false;
try {
request = new ActiveXObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP');
}
catch (err2) {
try {
request = new ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP');
}
catch (err3) {
try {
request = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch (err1) {
request = false;
}
}
}
return request;
}

function sendRequest() {
var validate=document.getElementById('validate').value;
querystring = 'validate=' + validate;
xhr.open('POST', 'validate.php', true);
xhr.onreadystatechange = sayHello;
xhr.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xhr.send(querystring);
}


function sayHello() {
if (xhr.readyState == 4) {
//return answer
}
}

xhr = createXHR();

this code sometimes works and sometimes doesn't work.
how we can sure that above code works?

You probably need to make sure that the query is always unique. Perhaps:

querystring = 'validate=' + validate+ "&rand=" + new Date().getTime();

Doesn't work on what end? The server or the client? I think Sterling's is a good guess, it's probably being cached, but you should try to give us as much information as possible so we can do more than guess.

Hi
Thank you for your contribution.
The problem was solved Most often, but sometimes (below 1% of times) the problem still exists. Nevertheless, Thank you.

How where you able to solve this issue. i run into the say problem with IE 8. my code will work in every other browser but IE 8. I believe the request is stopping at "reqObj.open("GET",url, true); from the debugging report.
