mysql_close($conn);
?>
</body>
</html>

We need more information. For example, what does responseText look like? — Lance, Jun 07 '15 at 20:20
And what is the problem? Look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14220321, maybe. — Sebastian Simon, Jun 07 '15 at 20:21

You need to parse your response in parts and then assign values to specific divs. E.g. if your xmlhttp.responseText` looks like this:

{
    "question": "Who is it?",
    "answers": ["Merry", "Billy", "Joe"]
}

you will something like this:

function buildQuestionaree(data) {
    // 
    // if data is a string
    // data = JSON.parse(data);
    // 
    var question = data.question;
    var answers = data.answers;

    document.getElementById("div1").innerHTML = question;
    document.getElementById("dop1").innerHTML = answers[0];
    document.getElementById("dop2").innerHTML = answers[1];
    document.getElementById("dop3").innerHTML = answers[2];
}
