I agree with @Spudley's point.

It's also worth mentioning that if the textboxes such as txtareahead are ASP.NET TextBox Controls, then the ID's will have most likely changed during rendering.

First problem is that you've commented out the line which creates the AJAX object, so none of the subsequent code will work because they're trying to access an object which doesn't exist.

Second problem is that even if you uncomment that line, it's using Activex/MSXML which will only work with IE (and even then only older versions of IE).

In short, your code isn't good, and needs to be entirely redone rather than being fixed.

My recommendation is that you find a more up-to-date example of how to do AJAX code. Possibly even just use a good quality Javascript library like JQuery.
