// This is the call URL. It will always require the method being used to be sent in the URL

var url = "phph1_call.php?method=net_peercount";

// The formdata variable is always set
// Even if there is no form data we need the dorequest sent
var formdata = "dorequest=1";

// Run the getPHPH1Data function
