AJAX Load PHP Response - php

Question

How can I load data from my PHP response via ajax into a panel?
My PHP outputs correctly and I can see a table in the response, but I can;t get it to build the data on my webpage.
Here is my jquery/ajax so far. It passed the value to PHP correctly and PHP builds the table via its echo, but what am I missing for AJAX to display the table?
PHP:
<?php
foreach ($lines as $value) {
echo "<input name='data[]' value='$value'><br/>";
}
?>
JQUERY:
$(function () {
$('#rotator').change(function (e) {
var rotator = $("#rotator").val();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "tmp/JFM/National/national.php",
data: {
rotator: rotator
},
success: function (result) {
$('#panel').load(result);
}
})
return false;
});
});

Answer 1

The answer to this was two fold.
I was attempting to append to my main div, which apparently can't happen. I created a new empty div and was able to load the results there.
Beyond that, the comments to change .load(results) to .html(results) were needed.
The correct jquery code is below.
$(function () {
$('#rotator').change(function (e) {
var rotator = $("#rotator").val();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "tmp/JFM/National/national.php",
data: {
rotator: rotator
},
success: function (result) {
console.log(result);
$('#test').html(result);
}
})
return false;
});
});

move your function from:
$.ajax({...,success: function(){...}});
to
$.ajax({..}).done(function(){...});
if it doesn't work, try to add async:false into the ajax object...
$.ajax({...,async:false}).done(function(){...});
Hope it helps... =}
