ajax call must get response from method in ajax.php? - php

Question

This is my ajax call.
$(document).on('click','#Quote_create_value',function(){
$.ajax({
type : 'GET',
url : '../../../protected/config/ajax.php',
success : function(response){
$("#Quote_template_value").html(response);
}
});
});
I have many methods in ajax.php. Each and every method throws some response.
<?php
function respose()
{
$query = "select * from quote where template IS NOT NULL";
$result = mysql_query($query, $con);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo '<option value="'.$row['template'].'">' . $row['template'] . '</option>';
}
$query1 = "select * from template";
$data = mysql_query($query1,$con);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($data)) {
echo json_encode($row);
}
}
function result()
{
}
?>
But i want to get response from one method [ie. from response()].
How can this be done?

You could include a selector in the ajax request data. Like this for example:
$(document).on('click','#Quote_create_value',function(){
$.ajax({
type : 'GET',
url : '../../../protected/config/ajax.php',
data: "function=result",
success : function(response){
$("#Quote_template_value").html(response);
}
});
});
Then in your PHP code, a simple if-statement will check which one to output.
if(isset($_GET['function'])) {
if($_GET['result'] == 'result') {
// do result stuff
} elseif($_GET['function'] == 'response') {
// do response stuff
}
}
