    HI Allan ,

    I don't see any option here to attach the file , but the file given earlier was exactly copied and pasted .

    I have tried the ajax version and modified by json to be returned to the exact format which was specified in the web and is working .

    But if i try it the above way it's not working

    Hi,

    Are you able to give me a link (i.e. the url) to the page you are working on so I can take a look at it directly and see why it is not working. I don't immediately see an issue with the code above.

    Thanks,
    Allan
