POST via Javascript to PHP

[ductiletoaster]

ok my question has to do with using the javascript post to then send multiple params to php.....

// Instance Variables
        var params = "username=" + username + "$email=" + email + "$message=" + message;
          var XMLHttpRequestObject = getXMLHttp();
        
        if (XMLHttpRequestObject) {
            
            // Opens dataSource and recives data
            XMLHttpRequestObject.open("POST", dataSource);
            
            // Post Headers
            XMLHttpRequestObject.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
            XMLHttpRequestObject.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length);
            XMLHttpRequestObject.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");
            
            XMLHttpRequestObject.onreadystatechange = function() {
                if(XMLHttpRequestObject.readyState == 4 && XMLHttpRequestObject.status == 200) {
                    HandleResponse(XMLHttpRequestObject.responseText, divID);
                }
            }
            XMLHttpRequestObject.send(params);
        }
