This is my php coding which ll be loaded through ajax in another page.. Below is my ajax script.
Ajax Script
function select_subcatinfo(name)
{
$("#wait").css("display","block");
var checkedValue1 = name;
if( $("#checkbox_check1"+name).is(':checked') )
{
var xmlhttp;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}
else
{// code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
{
if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
{
$("#wait").css("display","none");
data = xmlhttp.responseText.split("[BRK]");
document.getElementById("DisplaySubcat").innerHTML = data[0]+" "+data[1];
}
}
xmlhttp.open("GET","getSubcatValue.php?checkedValue1="+checkedValue1,true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
else
{
$("#wait").css("display","none");
}
}
</script>
But inside that echo statement this function is not working.. any help here . thankss

Answer 1

Don't use inline Javascript, use jQuery to bind the event handler:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".checkbox_check1").click(function() {
if (this.checked) {
$("#wait").show();
$.get('getSubcatValue.php', { checkedValue1: this.value }, function(response) {
var data = response.split('[BRK]');
$("#DisplaySubcat").text(data[0] + ' ' + data[1]);
$("#wait").hide();
});
}
});
});

I'm really not trying to answer this...just cleaned up the op's PHP
<?php
require("config.php");
error_reporting(0);
$checkedValue = $_REQUEST['checkedValue'];
$options = "";
$s=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `sub_category` INNER JOIN `category` on sub_category.cat_id=category.cat_id where category.cat_name='$checkedValue'");
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($s))
{
$subcategory=$rows['sub_cat_name'];
echo '<div><input name="sub_category" type="checkbox" class="checkbox_check1" onclick="select_subcatinfo('.$subcategory.')" id="checkbox_check1'.$subcategory.'" value="'. $subcategory.'" > '.$subcategory.'<br /><br /></div>';
}
?>
