I am still new to jQuery and I am trying to figure something out. I have this code:
[Code]...
This is working fine on itself. What is does is when I click a link it loads data into the following div. When done loading it slides out. But I want to change the appearance of the slide. I have tried to do that like this: $(this).show("slide", { direction: "down" }, 1000); But this doesn't work. When I check firebug it says the following: o.easing[this.options.easing || (o.easing.swing ? "swing" : "linear")] is not a function
I am using .ajax() to access cross-domain data using JSONP. Because I need to be able to cache the data I want to use a static name for thejsonpCallback function, so I have set the jsonpCallback option in the .ajax() request. However that appears to requires a global function whereas the auto generated function didn't (well maybe it did but that was all hidden from me).
I definitely need to be able to cache the results. Ideally I wouldn't have a global function handling the data. Is there another way to do this? If not what is the best practice way to go about using a global function these days and how do I provide it with the context of the object/module it was called from - which is where the data is needed?
i have a series of <select> fields. The first one, via ajax(), generates a 2nd one, based on the first ones' data with the .change() method. there is then a 3rd <select> - who's data will depend on choice of the second one although step 1 works, and i can generate the 2nd one, i still can't generate the 3rd one.
when i test the script on its own, both the 2nd and 3rd <select> fields are fine - but not via the ajax, which leads me to believe that the .change() from the 2nd one, isnt triggering the ajax call - its not being picked up (even the 'hello' alert isnt working).
Relatively new to jQuery but have a problem with getting data to display.Using a webform with 2 forms. User slects and inputs data into the first form, clicks a button then using jQuery .ajax submits the serialized data to a php script. The script processes the input into multiple paragraphs of text which is based on the input from the first form.The data is returned to the webpage and displayed in a text area (of the 2nd form) where the user can edit it to fine tune the wording. The 2 forms are displayed in different tabs so it is easy to move back and forward between the 2 forms.
The problem occurs when the user goes back to the first form and enters or selects different text and then click the submit button to generate a whole new text for insertion into the textarea on the second form. For certain fields the modified text is displayed.However if the whole of the text in the textarea is deleted, then the user clicks the submit button to re-generate the text content area then nothing at all is ever interted into the textarea. If have user alert to check that data is returned from the php handler and this text is correct. BUT when I click on the tab to see the textarea (id is "draftrec") there is no text inserted. The relevant function is below and the line that should insert the text into the textarea is:
I would like to use jQuery to prepopulate a form - ie make a call to a php program to get data from a database and pre-populatea form with appropriate data for the user. Can anyone point me in the right direction for some examples on the simplest way to do this?
I wonder if i can make the variable data which is [data] in jQuery.post( url, [data], [callback], [type] ) dynamic. for instance, this is the form i want to send,
I am writing a small data entry screen that will post the form data to a page and return a message. But i cannot get the Success or Error functions working properly.
Here's the code where strData is the posted querystring of:
I'm not sure whether it should be in a form and using the onsubmit or click of a button.
I am trying to try jQuery 1.4.3 updated .data() method with HTML5 data attributes. The way I understood these changes is that an element with these attributes would automatically have their data populated by .data(). For example, if I have an element:
<ahref="#" data-cheese="cheddar">DataElement</a>
I can access this with .data('cheddar'). This part works fine. The issue I am having is that calling JUST data like $(this).data() just produces an empty object. Is this how it should be expected to function?
I have a few input and textarea fields and when the submit button is pressed, I use $.ajax to send the data to a PHP script, which in turn, simply prints the data, which in turn is displayed in an alert msg box back in my callback. (The script will eventually load the data into a database but for simplification this is all it does for now).
The only problem, is that the $.ajax encodes/escapes special characters automatically and I can't figure out how to decode/unescape them to make them usable again. Here is the javascript (I simplified it to make it easy to understand):
$.ajax(
Here is my php ajax script (super simple)
So anyways, everything appears to work fine. I enter some info into 'myTextArea', and press submit. The script sends it to the PHP script, which it turn returns the same value and the javascript puts it in a message box.
So the problem specifically is if I send special characters like any of the quotes ' " (single or double quotes). Lets say my text area had this text in it: It's My "Birthday"
$.ajax sends the following data: It's My "Birthday"
So how do I unescape this? Ya, I could simply replace all backslashes, but I assume there are other characters it may escape in special ways I'm not sure about. What is the proper way to do it?
The only possible way I could figure out to do this was to use escape($('#myTextArea').val())
So the data gets sent as: It%27s%20My%20%22Birthday%22
And then use the PHP command "urldecode" on the other end. It turns out correct that way. However, that doesn't seem like the proper way to do it. Javascript 'escape' command was meant for escaping characters for sending GET variables and for sending formatted URLs. Not for text and input forms. Is there a better/more proper way?
Currently, I'm building a website with jQuery. The function below helps me to get content from a database. In the file content_ajax.php there are some functions to handle ajax-requests. JS calls the PHP-function correctly (I've send an email to myself inside that function to check) but the script doesn't return 'succes' and doesn't give me an error...Also, when I put an alert inside the succes and error function, it doesn't popup!
What may be relevant: - site uses mod_rewrite for friendly url's
where someData is a vanilla object of key/value pairs, submissionUrl is a valid URL and ajaxSuccess/ajaxError are both functions.Using jQuery 1.5.1, the GET request is delivered to the server without the data. Using jQuery 1.4.4, the request contains the data.Has something changed in the way I should be assigning data to an ajax request in 1.5.1? The docs don't seem to suggest I'm doing anything incorrectly.
I've got an ajax call that runs a password verification. The username/password work fine but I can't get the php to send data to to the AJAX, instead it just echoe's the result in an alert box code...
So I'm loading the div#my_events by prepend(data) where "data" is another well styled div. Is there anyway to animate this returned data. Unfortunately I can't just specify a unique ID on the incoming data. So I was wondering how else I might be able to address this data I'm returning.
It is basically a topic list, with a modal that sends jquery to add a topic to the database, and returns the topic from the database, hides the modal, and displays the last added topic at the top of the topic list. Now I'd like it to do something slightly fancy like animate the color of the background to bring the user's attention to it.
I would like to send my form data to a php file but not to get any response. I want to send an ID so that PHP can do MySQL search and generate a PDF file. Problem seems to be that PHP is responding something back to HTML and that is messing my code. So I just want to send the data and run the scripit in PHP so that nothing is returned back to HTML.
I really don't understand why I am getting this error (parsererror TypeError: data is null [object XMLHttpRequest]) after making the following AJAX request:
var base_url = $('span#base_url').text(); var model_url = "index.php/status/get_xml/" $.ajax({ type: "POST",
[Code].....
So I am wondering why the .ajax function has an error, and yet the XML is being returned?
I'm experiencing a weird problem when trying to do a $.ajax call. When I pass 5 variables, with either GET or POST, the script runs as I would like. However, when I use 6 or more variables, the script does not run. Does anyone know why this is?
Relevant code (stops1-5 are defined as JS variables earlier in my script, and the alerts are for testing)
So, the way it is now, it works fine (I get the first alert for each instance of .barcrawl-stop-id, and get an alert at the end with the returned data). However, when I add another variable to the data, like stop4: stop4, the script does not run (all I see is one alert with "running ajax function").
I am creating a dialog using jQuery, and want to populate it with dynamic data. The data in question is properly formatted XML (parsed using jQuery). The call I make looks something like this:
function getXML() { var $link = $(this); var $dialog = $('<div></div>') .load('xml_results_formatted_jquery.php' + ' #dialogcontent')
[Code]....
If I preview the xml_results_formatted_jquery.php file, I see the data so I know the webservice is being queried correctly. However, when I call my function above, the dialog box created has no text in it (apart from the text already present in the dialogcontent DIV). The bit that shows the results of the XML parse is empty.
The answer to my question is probably very simple, but I'm having trouble making this work.
I want to access a local csv file, rearrange it into an array, and use the data later in my script. The logic of this in psuedocode is [code]...
Since the massaged data are in the callback, they're not available at ***. I've tried declaring the variables outside the callback as shown, but this doesn't seem to work either. I'm thinking there must be an easier way. Is there?
I am trying to replace the names of each link in my html page with $f1 (Page) and replace some content with $f2 (Description).
How would I insert the data from this php file into my html page?
output.php:
mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password); @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); $query="SELECT * FROM Pages"; $result=mysql_query($query);
In this dumb example, I'm unable to match the 'data' returned variable with the value I assigned to it in php (I can't manage to enter my 'do stuff'), yet its value is 'ok' if I display it. I have no problem to retrieve html code from php and inject it in my pages, but I can't test it as a regular javascript string.
What's wrong in this ? What have I missed about the 'data' format ? Do I have to 'cast' data to a javascript string (and if so, how ?)
