Ajax，从单个js调用多个PHP函数

Question

i have a trouble with my project. In my site i have a page html with a single button and at onclick() eventa js function call intro.js, trough a XmlHttpRequestObject have to do many calls at many php function, in detail:

in js i call scan() function

function scan() {
 if (xmlHttp)
 {
 // try to connect to the server
 try
 {
  // initiate reading the async.txt file from the server
  xmlHttp.open("GET", "php/intro.php?P1=http://"+oStxt.value, true);
  xmlHttp.onreadystatechange = handleRequestStateChange;
  xmlHttp.send(null);
  // change cursor to "busy" hourglass icon
  document.body.style.cursor = "wait";    
}
// display the error in case of failure
catch (e)
{
  alert("Can't connect to server:
" + e.toString());
  // revert "busy" hourglass icon to normal cursor
   document.body.style.cursor = "default";
}
}

}

And in handleRequestStatuschange i have:

function handleRequestStateChange()
 {
 // obtain a reference to the <div> element on the page
 // display the status of the request 
 if (xmlHttp.readyState == 0 || xmlHttp.readyState == 4)
 {
 // revert "busy" hourglass icon to normal cursor
document.body.style.cursor = "default";
// read response only if HTTP status is "OK"
if (xmlHttp.status == 200) 
{
  try
  {
    // read the message from the server
    response = xmlHttp.responseText;
    // display the message 
document.body.appendChild(oRtag);
oPch = document.getElementById("divRtag");
oOch = document.createTextNode(response);
oPch.appendChild(oOch);
  }
  catch(e)
  {
    // display error message
    alert("Error reading the response: " + e.toString());
  }
} 
else
{
    // display status message
  alert("There was a problem retrieving the data:
" + 
        xmlHttp.statusText);
  // revert "busy" hourglass icon to normal cursor
  document.body.style.cursor = "default"; 
}
}
}

It works for just one php call, but i need to call different php page in scan function after intro.php (scan2.php, scan3.php, ecc ecc) and with json_decode write single data of the array that return in div tags on my html page. Which is the best way to call different php pages and manage the results with a single js function in ajax?

Thanks in advance Alessandro

Not sure how you built your php-functions. Cant you create a function, that calls other functions (scans)?

function doScan(){

  $data = array();

 //like this, or with a loop
 $data['scan1'] = scan1();
 ....
 $data['scanN'] = scanN();

echo json_encode($data);

}
