I am (finally) successfully calling and running a php script using $.ajax() and now I need to update a table row as a result of that. In the ajax I have these variables for the updated row: docID, docName, docDescription. Since the docID is used elsewhere on the page, I'll need to start with the table id, which is #docsTable.
The rows that I need to update look like this:
<tr bgcolor="#EFE5D3" style="font-weight: bold;">
<td width="25px"><a class="docEditLink" name="33" href="#">Edit</a></td>
<td width="20px"><input type="checkbox" name="removeDocs[]" value="33" /></td>
<td>Document Name</td>
<td>Document Description</td></tr>
The name attribute is the docID, so that is unique within that table, for that document. So, my question is, how can I build a selector that will allow me to change the 3rd and 4th <td> tags with document name and document description, respectively?
I am trying to alter some code used. The code currently will look in db for records matching what user is tying in. If they select it it fills that field in with the data selected. I want it to also change the next input field as that is the id of that record.
I use the Tablekit library and Prototype javascript framework on firefox, chrome & IE8. The columns in this table can be sorted by the Tablekit library.
However, after adding the periodic refresh by AJAX (eventually I want to refresh only the web page when there is new data available) and <div>, then the columns in this table cannot be sorted by the Tablekit library.

I have a form which goes to my insert page which inserts the data into the table. Except I didn't want to do a redirect to another page so I thought I would do an Ajax call. Both pages work until I change it to an ajax call.
I am pretty certain that it is because I took out the <form action="insert.php"> because otherwise the page would redirect but if that is the case I don't know my way around it and if it isn't the problem I'm not sure what is.
I've 2 little problems in my page....i've already done the functional script in php for erasing and inserting a row into a table...but i've a problem...this row contains 2 links that are for erasing and modifying the row.... it happen that when i insert a row (that has class="edit" and it's for working on ajax...) i can erase and modify only the old rows and not the new ones...probably cause javascript takes all the element of a general class only at the loading of the page and link them to the onclick function....
I post the code here...
The html+php table
And when i insert a row into the db i update the table with this script
Where the data appended to the table is a row of the table given from the php script
Another thing,as you can see, is that i would like to know how to pop up a new alert if data from the last function on the $.post is equal to a string
I tried to do it with the compareto js function but it didn't seem to work....
I am working on submitting a form with various info to update on db using jquery, ajax. The db is updating perfectly when I disable JS on firefox. When enabled, a few fields (adID, userID, comments) are not updating on the db. The field userID updated as zero, but the other two are blank.
I'm using jquery-ui 1.6 custom build with jquery 1.2.6 trying to set up a dialog window. Unfortunately I can't update to 1.3.2 since this would trigger some unexpected XHR-related bugs like the following:
So I'm sticking with the 1.2.6 build, which works fine despite a minor/not-critical XHR issue:
Notice that this error is reported in FireBug/Venkman, however Firefox doesn't seem to care and let the XMLHTTPRequest to execute successfully.
The code for the dialog window is given below. I don't seem to understand why posted data cannot be shown on the dialog box twice.
Moreover, it will display it as I want on the first $.post request but any additional requests triggered with a click event don't show any updated data on the dialog box. Venkman reports that the anonymous callback function manages to obtain the updated data, but still nothing get shown on the dialog, just an empty div... ;-)
This is the script that gets evaluated by jQuery (using $.get(...)). A json object is returned by the server either containing form validation errors or a result object that contains simple strings.
I was wondering if anybody could help me out a little. My goal is to update some information about a system every 2-5 seconds. The information needs to be displayed in some sort of table, but the size of the table needs to be able to shrink and grow. The main problem here is updating the table without refreshing the entire page and making any clicking noises. I was thinking maybe I can put the table in an iframe and use javascript somehow to update the iframe whenever neccesary.
i am doing Screenshot development of my current project. I am gonna using jQuery as Javascript framework in my project. For this i need some help as i dont know jQuery very well.Is it possible to make Modal popup which is auto updating every 15 seconds and the updating continue for about 1minutes?
I setup a jquery ajax request to update my sql database... (add a product to shopping cart) then after it completes I want to use .load to re-load the shoppingcart (the cart is currently loaded with php include - so it is it's own seperate .php file). The problem is that when it reloads it doesn't have the "current version" If i refresh the page it's fine..
I have also tried to put a variable in front from the $.ajax and then use $("#cart").ajaxComplete(function() { $(this).load("cart.php"); } }); But yet still no luck. How to make ajax load a page after the mysql update has been done then display it?! I used to do this all the time before I started using jquery. When readyState was = 4 { load page code here } it would always work.
I'm building a site that uses some jQuery but at this point I haven't had to get my hands dirty in the code. I'm hoping to get some pointers on how to best approach this problem, or if a plug-in exists to point me that way. I'm anticipating I'll need to build the code though because of the specific nature of the issue. I have a two very complex MySQL data trees that need to cross reference. To handle the cross referencing I simply have a third table that links the ids of the large tables together. That way I can join data via the linking table. This is all working and established. What I need to do is allow the admin user to navigate through one tree from within the context of a particular element from the other tree and click a toggle icon (tick or cross) to create or delete the cross reference in the linking table. Traditionally I would perform this task using forms but I want the user to be able to make these changes on the fly without needing to reload the page. I also want to stop further toggling until the update or delete has been completed.
I'm dynamically outputting the contents of a MySQL table using Python, to a HTML table, which users view (obviously) through a web browser. It looks great, but the problem is that I'd like users to be able to update these values. For example, I have the current value of certain fields in text boxes. I'd like users to be able to change those values, then hit a submit button or similar (ideally on-the-fly) to update the dB. I imagine javascript will need to pass values to a Python script, but I don't know what the best way to go about this is.
# Python code embedded in a .psp file cursor = db.cursor() cursor.execute("SELECT from_name, from_address, project, orb_proj, app, tier, environment,
i have a table, with records pulled from a mysql database with users who can earn points. is there anyway i could have the points update live, insted of having to refresh the page?
What's the easiest way to update multiple div's with AJAX? Right now I'm using the following code to update one div, but right after I've updated that div I would need to update another div that is dependent on the first div that is updated. Code:
I've created an ajax function which retrieves comments from a news article. But if I am logged in I will also have access to an input field for posting comments. The problem / question is that if I use Ajax I can only update one div with the responseText? How would I go about updating another one where I want to insert my form field. Can I make multiple requests in some certain manner or do I simply create another ajax function updating it separately?
I want to update an element in my DOM that contains Javascript code when an action X is performed and an AJAX response generated with new Javascript code that is one of the AJAX response variables.
The AJAX request is successfully returned, as is the Javascript JSON response variable. However, I'm having no luck updating the DOM element containing the old JS code with the new JS code. I'm performing these operations using JQuery.
I'm trying to update the location of a marker in a Google Maps API. The only problem is that the marker won't update (only if i update the whole initialize() function with a setTimeout function).
It goes about the following code:
Code:
What i want is that the marker updates automatically (with AJAX) and not the whole map. First of al i thought i push the code that set's te marker in a function, and reload that every 4 seconds. But that doesn't work.
The general framework is a simple user login function. The user name is selected and a password entered as usual. The function grabs the element values and passes them to a php page that queries the database. An AJAX call returns the password to the function and then I want the innerHTML to be a choice of two web pages, depending on success or failure of validation. There are existing AJAX functions available on the internet but they are overly complicated for what I think should be a simple, quick to load function.
Where I am stuck is that the standard procedure to make an AJAX call is the browser window event. How do you make the call from within the function? I have tried creating two new variables, "success" and "again" to replace xmlhttp, but still stumble on the event to assign a value. I left the blank password protection (if statement) with that variable to demonstrate what I mean.
I've put in my code below, which is in development and successfully alters the innerHTML text depending on user input but I can't figure out how to insert the relevant php page. I have '// out' the testing bits, but left them for info. (I have tried full 'scripting' as the innerHTML, but it's messy.)
Let me preface this by saying that I have ZERO experience with Ajax, and have simply copied this code from a blog elsewhere. What is shown below ties to a php file that I developed for a search function on our site. As the user enters their search term(s) in the text input field, the div below is populated with potential results through AJAX. I get all that.
However, I'd like to extend this a bit more. I'd like to enable to user to click the Enter key to follow the URL of the top search result automatically, without having to move their mouse and click on it.
Since I'm using PHP to generate the actual URL, I'm sure I can just send this back as a variable via AJAX, but with my lack of understanding, I thought I'd poke around here for some assistance. Can someone show me how to tweak the code below to accomplish what I'm looking for?
Code:
<script type="text/javascript"> function showResult(str) { if (str=="")
[Code].....
I'm less concerned about getting the Enter key to perform the submit than I am about passing the URL variable back to the form via AJAX. I've seen lots of examples of getting the Enter key to behave this way, I just didn't want to muddy up the original code above.
A couple of months ago I posted a question in these forums pertaining to some trouble I've been having with a webpage utilizing Javascript and PHP to implement AJAX.
Quote: I'm having two Ajax-related problems on a page I am working on at the moment. (Can't include the link since I'm a new Dev Shed member)
On this page, I have two buttons that use Ajax to fetch two separate forms and put them into a chosen div; that part works like a charm.
On said forms, there is a div that is meant to display any necessary error messages when the submit button is clicked. However, on the first time the page is visited and the form is chosen, the div won't display the error message. Only after refreshing the page/choosing the form a second time will the message show. I've been checking the response from the server via Firebug and the response is correct, it just seems like the page isn't updating correctly.
Secondly, once I refresh or choose the form again and the error message begins to show, if I enter values into the form fields and should be getting a different error message, it never updates. Once again, the server response is correct, but for some reason the page just isn't updating to reflect the new message.
I have been using the date field on the New Event form for testing; if you have Firebug, you should be able to see that I am getting the desired response from the server (look in the allErr div), but the HTML isn't changing with it. I have tried both using my own Ajax functions and using jQuery's Ajax implementation, but both give me the same problems. What am I doing wrong?
I need to be able to call a certain td element in a table and I'm not able to edit the html (dynamically generated) so i was wondering if it is possible to target td elements like an array using jquery.
For instance, say I need to change the class of the 4th td element in the second tr element. how would I target that? is there a way to do it in array style like below?
