Merging localstorage with ajax - php

How would I merge these two bits of code and can someone explain what the key and value would be.
I'm building a notifications system and I'm wanting to store the last new notification_id but not have it inserted into the div over and over again if its the same one, so then the ajax searches for anything else within my server that maybe new.
Ajax
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadIt() {
var notification_id="<?php echo $notification_id['notification_id'] ;?>"
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "viewajax.php?notification_id="+notification_id,
dataType:"json",
cache: false,
success: function(dataHandler){
}
});
}
setInterval(loadIt, 10000);
</script>
Localstrorage
window.localStorage.setItem('key', 'value');
var dataHandler = function (response){
var isDuplicate = false, storedData = window.localStorage.getItem ('key');
for (var i = 0; i < storedData.length; i++) {
if(storedData[i].indexOf(response) > -1){
isDuplicate = true;
}
}
if(!isDuplicate){
storedData.push(response);
}
};
var printer = function(response){
if(response.num){
$("#notif_actual_text-"+notification_id).prepend('<div id="notif_actual_text-'+response['notification_id']+'" class="notif_actual_text">'+response['notification_content']+' <br />'+response['notification_time']+'</div></nr>');
$("#mes").html(''+ response.num + '');
}
};

You've confused oldschool Ajax by hand with jQuery. The parameter to the success function in jQuery is not a function name or handler. Its a variable name that will contain the response from the server. The success function itself is equivalent to the handler functions you would have created doing it the old way.
So not:
success: function(dataHandler){ }
...
...
var dataHandler = function (response){
But rather:
success: function(response) { doCallsToSaveToLocalStorage(response); }

Get results and fade

Don't know what is wrong, I've tried everything. The code should take simple info from PHP file and for each should fade in delay and out. I was successful with getting all the data at once but it is not good.
<script type="text/javascript">
$('button').fadeOut('slow')
var progressBar = $('.progress-bar');
var percentVal = 0;
window.setInterval(function(){
percentVal += 10;
progressBar.css("width", percentVal+ '%').attr("aria-valuenow", percentVal+ '%').text(percentVal+ '%');
if (percentVal == 100)
{
percentVal = 0;
}
}, 500);
$(document).ready(function() {
$("button").click(function() {
$.ajax({ //create an ajax request to load_page.php
type: "GET",
url: "submit.php",
data: 'html', //expect html to be returned
success: function(data){
for(var i=0;i<6;i++){
$('.input-group').html(data).fadeIn(500).delay(1000).fadeOut(500);
}
}
});
});
});
</script>
PHP CODE:
$array= ['apple','orange','grapes','avocado','banana'];
$indexedOnly = array();
foreach ($array as $row) {
$indexedOnly[] = array_values($row);
}
echo json_encode($indexedOnly);
I think you need to abandon the loops, they wont allow you to pause to wait for the animation to finish. You can try something like this where you handle each element in data then using the callback functions of .fadeIn and .fadeOut to call the next one
function disp_next() {
$('.input-group').text(data.shift()).hide();
$('.input-group').fadeIn()
.delay(1000)
.fadeOut(function(){
if(data.length !== 0) {
disp_next();
}
})
}
disp_next();
You also need to change your dataType to json as you are expecting json from the server. Here is your jquery updated
$(document).ready(function() {
$("button").click(function() {
$.ajax({ //create an ajax request to load_page.php
type: "GET",
url: "submit.php",
datatype: 'json', //expect html to be returned
success: function(data){
data = Object.values(data);
function disp_next() {
$('.input-group').text(data.shift()).hide();
$('.input-group').fadeIn()
.delay(1000)
.fadeOut(function(){
if(data.length !== 0) {
disp_next();
}
})
}
disp_next();
}
});
});
});
Try something like this, but if you want the animation of each element to wait for the previous one to finish you need to change the approach.
$.each(data, function(i, value) {
$('.input-group').html(data).fadeIn(500).delay(1000).fadeOut(500);
});

Ajax data isn't being received by php

Hello overflowers!
I can't seem to manage to send my ajax data over to my php page correctly, it has worked perfectly fine before but now it is not working.
I'm getting the correct data via console.log but on my php page i'm getting Undefined index error.
Jquery
var task_takers_pre = [];
var task_takers = [];
var i = 1;
$(".new-task-takers ul.select_takers li").on('click', function(){
$(this).each(function(){
$(this).toggleClass("active");
if($(this).find('.fa').length > 0){
$(this).find('.fa').remove();
i -= 1;
var removeItem = $(this).data("id");
task_takers_pre.remove(removeItem);
console.log(task_takers_pre);
}else{
$('<i class="fa fa-check" aria-hidden="true"></i>').insertBefore($(this).find("div"));
i += 1;
task_takers_pre[i] = $(this).data("id");
console.log(task_takers_pre);
}
$.each(task_takers_pre, function (index, value) {
if ($.inArray(value, task_takers) == -1) {
task_takers.push(index, value);
}
});
});
});
$("#new-task").on('submit', function(){
console.log(task_takers_pre);
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '',
cache: false,
data: {task_takers_pre : task_takers_pre },
success: function(data) {
//console.log(data)
}
});
});
PHP
if(isset($_POST['task_submit'])){
$task_takers = $_POST['task_takers_pre'][0];
var_dump($task_takers);
}
EDIT
jQuery
var task_takers_pre = [];
var task_takers = [];
var i = 1;
$(".new-task-takers ul.select_takers li").on('click', function(){

$task_takers2 = $_POST['task_takers_pre']; // Just for testing
var_dump($task_takers2); // Just for testing
}
What you are attempting to do is use the same PHP code to handle the Button Press from the Form AND the AJAX Call. Don't!
(note: This answer is Only based upon the code that has been provided and what is trying to achieved with this code.)
So your current PHP is, which I am guessing is what you call when you click the submit button... In that case $_POST['task_takers_pre'] will not exist as you are generating that from the JS and sending it in the AJAX Call.
Write a separate AJAX Call.
You need to create a separate file to handle your AJAX calls and have it perform what duties it needs to perform.
// This is just for testing my AJAX Call
public function ajax_post(){
if(isset($_POST['task_takers_pre'])){
$task_takers = $_POST['task_takers_pre'][0]; // Just for testing
var_dump($task_takers); // Just for testing
die();
}
else {
// Illegal access/entry do something...
echo 'Error - I had better check what I am posting.';
die();
}
}
If you juse want to send some data in the AJAX Call when you click the submit button,you could return false to prevent form submission in the submit event.
$("#new-task").on("submit", function(){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "",
cache: false,
data: {task_submit:1, task_takers_pre: task_takers_pre},
success: function(data){
console.log(data);
}
});
return false;
});

Ajax function issue on return true and false in wordpress

I am validating a form with ajax and jquery in WordPress post comments textarea for regex. But there is an issue when i want to alert a error message with return false. Its working fine with invalid data and showing alert and is not submitting. But when i put valid data then form is not submit. May be issue with return false.
I tried making variable and store true & false and apply condition out the ajax success block but did not work for me.
Its working fine when i do it with core php, ajax, jquery but not working in WordPress .
Here is my ajax, jquery code.
require 'nmp_process.php';
add_action('wp_ajax_nmp_process_ajax', 'nmp_process_func');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_nmp_process_ajax', 'nmp_process_func');
add_action('wp_head', 'no_markup');
function no_markup() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
jQuery('form').submit(function (e) {
var comment = jQuery('#comment').val();
jQuery.ajax({
method: "POST",
url: '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>',
data: 'action=nmp_process_ajax&comment=' + comment,
success: function (res) {
count = res;
if (count > 10) {
alert("Sorry You Can't Put Code Here.");
return false;
}
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
<?php
}
And i'm using wordpress wp_ajax hook.
And here is my php code.
<?php
function nmp_process_func (){
$comment = $_REQUEST['comment'];
preg_match_all("/(->|;|=|<|>|{|})/", $comment, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER);
$count = 0;
foreach ($matches as $val) {
$count++;
}
echo $count;
wp_die();
}
?>
Thanks in advance.
Finally, I just figured it out by myself.
Just put async: false in ajax call. And now it is working fine. Plus create an empty variable and store Boolean values in it and then after ajax call return that variable.
Here is my previous code:
require 'nmp_process.php';
add_action('wp_ajax_nmp_process_ajax', 'nmp_process_func');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_nmp_process_ajax', 'nmp_process_func');
add_action('wp_head', 'no_markup');
function no_markup() {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
jQuery('form').submit(function (e) {
var comment = jQuery('#comment').val();
jQuery.ajax({
method: "POST",
url: '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>',
data: 'action=nmp_process_ajax&comment=' + comment,
success: function (res) {
count = res;
if (count > 10) {
alert("Sorry You Can't Put Code Here.");
return false;
}
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
<?php
}
And the issue that i resolved is,
New code
var returnval = false;
jQuery.ajax({
method: "POST",
url: '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>',
async: false, // Add this
data: 'action=nmp_process_ajax&comment=' + comment,
Why i use it
Async:False will hold the execution of rest code. Once you get response of ajax, only then, rest of the code will execute.
And Then simply store Boolean in variable like this ,
success: function (res) {
count = res;
if (count > 10) {
alert("Sorry You Can't Put Code Here.");
returnval = false;
} else {
returnval = true;
}
}
});
// Prevent Default Submission Form
return returnval; });
That's it.
Thanks for the answers by the way.
Try doing a ajax call with a click event and if the fields are valid you submit the form:
jQuery(document).ready(function () {
jQuery("input[type=submit]").click(function (e) {
var form = $(this).closest('form');
e.preventDefault();
var comment = jQuery('#comment').val();
jQuery.ajax({
method: "POST",
url: '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>',
data: {'action':'nmp_process_ajax','comment':comment},
success: function (res) {
var count = parseInt(res);
if (count > 10) {
alert("Sorry You Can't Put Code Here.");
} else {
form.submit();
}
}
});
});
});
note : you call need to call that function in php and return only the count!
Instead of submitting the form bind the submit button to a click event.
jQuery("input[type=submit]").on("click",function(){
//ajax call here
var comment = jQuery('#comment').val();
jQuery.ajax({
method: "POST",
url: '<?php echo admin_url('admin-ajax.php'); ?>',
data: 'action=nmp_process_ajax&comment=' + comment,
success: function (res) {
count = res;
if (count > 10) {
alert("Sorry You Can't Put Code Here.");
return false;
}else{
jQuery("form").submit();
}
}
});
return false;
})
Plus also its a good idea to put return type to you ajax request.
Let me know if this works.

how to stop ajax request?

I have multiple ajax requests and when one of them can't get data I want , I re-send it until it can get data .
the problem that I can't stop it after it gets data . Is there's a break or something equivalent to it in ajax ?
I tried clearinterval but it didn't work
here's my functions :
function ajaxGetServerDatabase(Div,val,interval){
console.log(val);
dbs[val]=new Array();
$('#bck_action').val('get_DB');
$('#server_ip').val(val);
post_data = $('#'+Div+' *').serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: document.URL,
data: post_data,
dataType: "text",
success: function(response) {
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response)
clearInterval(this.interval); // ????
}
}
});
return false;
}
function ajaxGetDatabase(Div,ips,interval){
$.each(ips,function(i,val){
dbs[val]=new Array();
$('#bck_action').val('get_DB');
$('#server_ip').val(val);
post_data = $('#'+Div+' *').serialize();
// console.log(post_data);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: document.URL,
data: post_data,
dataType: "text",
success: function(response) {
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response)
}
else
{
setInterval("ajaxGetServerDatabase('"+Div+"','"+val+"','"+interval+"')", interval);
}
}
});
});
return false;
}
I call it :
ajaxGetDatabase('tab_backup',ips,3000);
var timer = null;
function ajaxGetServerDatabase(Div,val,interval){
//...
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response)
clearInterval(timer); // ????
}
//....
else
{
timer = setInterval("ajaxGetServerDatabase('"+Div+"','"+val+"','"+interval+"')", interval);
}
clearInterval has nothing to do with ajax. It's only a timer function which scope is to clear the timer set earlier with setInterval. If you really want to use a timer function you need either to attach a variable to the setInterval function, which you can clear with clearInterval setting as a parameter the id defined earlier in the setInterval.
var id = " ";
success: function(response) {
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response)
clearInterval(id);
}
else
id= setInterval("ajaxGetServerDatabase('"+Div+"','"+val+"','"+interval+"')", interval);
}
Or you can abort the code with ajax abort.
Maybe something close to this?
...
var stopAjax = 0; //switch is on
if(stopAjax == 0){
$.ajax({
...
success: function(response) {
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response);
stopAjax = 1; //switch is off
}
else{
setInterval("ajaxGetServerDatabase('"+Div+"','"+val+"','"+interval+"')", interval);
}
}
});
}
Are you looking for the timeout setting perhaps? eg
$.ajax({
timeout: 10000,
...
});
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
here's the answer :
in ajaxGetDatabase :
success: function(response) {
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response)
}
else
{
id=setInterval("ajaxGetServerDatabase('"+Div+"','"+val+"')", interval);
}
in ajaxGetServerDatabase :
success: function(response) {
if (response!='no_connection'){
dbs[val]=JSON.parse(response)
clearInterval(id);
}
}
with out scope parameter
var id;
to make it general and work for more than one server had stopped (more than one ajax request is failed) I used an array to save ids like this :
var ids=new Array();
ids[val]=setInterval("ajaxGetServerDatabase('"+Div+"','"+val+"')", interval);
clearInterval(ids[val]);

Why is this returning me 'undefined' [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How do I return the response from an asynchronous call?
(41 answers)
Closed 10 years ago.
Trying to run a script, (test.al();) and inside test.al, its called getcrypt.php();, the php script is on a webserver, and it is working. Currently, these are my scripts
JS
var getcrypt = {
php: function () {
$.ajax({
url: "server.com/return.php",
type: "POST",
async: true,
data: "id=getit",
success: function (msg) {
var v = msg.match(/^.*$/m)[0];
return v;
}
});
}
}
var test = {
al: function () {
a = getcrypt.php();
alert(a);
}
}
PHP
<?php
$id = $_POST['id'];
if ('getit' == $id){
$value = 'VALUE';
echo $value;
}else{
echo 0;
}
?>
In this way, it will show an alert with 'unidefined', and if i add a alert(v); right before return v, it will show me 'VALUE', but not able to use it outside the variable...
var getcrypt = {
php: function () {
$.ajax({
url: "server.com/return.php",
type: "POST",
async: true,
data: "id=getit",
success: function (msg) {
var v = msg.match(/^.*$/m)[0];
alert(v);
return v;
}
});
}
}
This will give me an alert with the correct value (AFTER THE 'undefined')
This is because of the asynchronous call you're making. The return is only for the success function and not for the php function.
To get the value out you would need to write:
var value;
var getcrypt = {
php: function (callback) {
$.ajax({
url: "",
type: "POST",
async: true,
data: "id=getit",
success: function (msg) {
var v = msg.match(/^.*$/m)[0];
alert(v);
callback(v);
}
});
}
}
getcrypt.php(function(v) {
alert(v);
// This happens later than the below
value = v;
});
// The below will still not work since execution has already passed this place
// alert will still return undefined
alert(value);
The problem is jQuery ajax works with callbacks and does not work with return value's so you need to add an callback to your getcrypt function so say
var getcrypt = {
php: function (callback) {
$.ajax({
url: "server.com/return.php",
type: "POST",
async: true,
data: "id=getit",
success: function (msg) {
var v = msg.match(/^.*$/m)[0];
callback(v);
}
});
}
}
so now if you call
getcrypt.php(function(returnVar){
alert(returnVar)
});
you will get an alert with VALUE
$.ajax returns immidiately (well, almost :)) upon calling, before the response is received. You should rewrite your code to accomodate to this fact, something like this;
var getcrypt = {
php: function(){
$.ajax({
//..other params ..//
success: function(msg){
var v = msg.match(/^.*$/m)[0];
alertResponse(v);
}
});
},
alertResponse: function(processedResponse) {
alert(v);
}
}
var test = {
al: function(){
getcrypt.php();
}
}
If you need your response in test object, you move alertResponse to that object and call it from success method. I think this tutorial might be useful for you to learn javascript event-driven programming model.
$.ajax calls are async. So what you get is the return value of $.ajax (when the request is sent, before a response is received). It is only when the browser receives a response to the ajax call that the success callback is run, as a seerate process from the $.ajax call. In other words the return value of $.ajax will always be null. I'm not sure it's possible to do anythging with the return value of the success callback, you need to put your logic (or a call to another function with the logic) in the success callback itself, in the same way you did with the alert in your final example
