Jquery and ajax on button click - php

I have this submit button without a form..
<input type='submit' id='conx' name='X' value='TEST x'>
Now when the button is clicked i need to execute this code.
$con = fopen("/tmp/myFIFO", "w");
fwrite($con, "XcOn");
close($con);
How can i execute it in jquery and ajax?.
$("#conx").click(function(){
//Execute this code
//$con = fopen("/tmp/myFIFO", "w");
//fwrite($con, "XcOn");
//close($con);
});
Thanks.

Post that to a PHP page with Ajax and execute those ther
$("#conx").click(function(){
$.post("yourPHPPageWithMagicCode.php");
});
Make sure yo have that PHP code in yourPHPPageWithMagicCode.php file.
If you want to show a response after the process is done, you can return something from your PHP page and let the callback of $.post handle it.
In your PHP page after your code,put an echo
echo "successfully finised";
Now change the jquery code to handle the callback
$("#conx").click(function(){
$.post("yourPHPPageWithMagicCode.php",function(repsonse){
alert(response);
});
});

Let's say your PHP file is called write.php. I believe you can do this:
$("#conx").click(function() {
$.ajax({
url: "/write.php"
});
});

All in one file.
test.php
<?php
if ($_POST['cmd'] === 'ajax') {
$con = fopen("/tmp/myFIFO", "w");
fwrite($con, "XcOn");
fclose($con);
exit;
}
?>
<!doctype html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>meh</title>
</head>
<body>
<input type="submit" id="conx" name="X" value="TEST x">
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(function(){
$("#conx").bind('click', function(){
$.post("test.php", { cmd: "ajax" } );
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>

Add something like below inside your click function to call a PHP script:
if (window.XMLHttpRequest){
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
}else{
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xmlhttp.open("GET", "URL/TO/PHP/SCRIPT",true);
xmlhttp.send();

You need a jquery ajax call between the click event block
$("#conx").click(function(){
$.ajax({
url: "phpfile.php",
type: "post",
//data: serializedData,
// callback handler that will be called on success
success: function(response, textStatus, jqXHR){
// log a message to the console
alert(response);
}
});
});
put whatever code you want in the phpfile.php file.

You need to load the 'click event' on the document load i.e.:
$(document).ready(function($){
$("#conx").click(function(){ .....

one way is
$("#conx").click(function(){
$.post("PHPFILENAME.PHP",{
whatdo:otherstuff
},function(d){
// return d here
}
})
run your code in the php file.

You could call a javascript function from the button:
<input type='submit' onclick="myFunction()" id='conx' name='X' value='TEST x'>
and have a page load in your function:
function myFunction(){
var loadUrl = "magic.php";
var result = $("#result").load(loadUrl);
}
Then have magic.php run your method:
//Execute this code
//$con = fopen("/tmp/myFIFO", "w");
//fwrite($con, "XcOn");
//close($con);
This is all untested pseudo-code...

dropzone.js and ajax call = empty $_FILE, $_POST

I am trying to send form variables to PHP via AJAX and show the result in console.log. But the console shows always no value for data. I don´t know what's wrong. What I have so far:
Part of jQuery Code:
...
init: function() {
this.on('success', function(csvFile, json) {
// AJAX
$.ajax({
url : "tests.php",
type : "POST",
data : this.csvFile
}).done(function (data) {
// Bei Erfolg
console.log("Erfolgreich:" + data);
}).fail(function() {
// Bei Fehler
console.log("Fehler!");
}).always(function() {
// Immer
console.log("Beendet!");
});
});
Part of HTML Code:
<form action="tests.php" class="dropzone" id="myAwesomeDropzone">
<input type="text" name="testname" value="das bin ich"/>
</form>
PHP Code:
if(!empty($_FILES)){
$test = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
echo test;
}
if(!empty($_POST)){
$test2 = $_POST['testname'];
echo $test2;
}
Your HTML code and PHP works fine (just need to fix "echo test" to "echo $test" in your tests.php). Dropzone automatically attach itself to anything with class "dropzone" and it will do ajax requests to your server after you select a file.
If you want to programmatically:
HTML
<div id="myDZ">
Drop your file
<input type="text" id="testname" name="testname" value="hello_world"/>
<button id="upload">upload</button>
</div>
jQuery:
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#upload").click(function(e){
myDZ.processQueue();
})
var myDZ = new Dropzone("#myDZ", {
url: "tests.php",
autoProcessQueue: false,
init: function(){
this.on('sending', function(xhr, fd1, fd2){
//append extra data here
fd2.append("testname", $("#testname").val());
});
this.on('success', function(file, responseText){
//do after successful upload
console.log(responseText);
})
}
});
</script>
you can remove "autoProcessQueue: false" and remove the button stuff if you want it to auto upload once a file is selected.
more events can be found here: http://www.dropzonejs.com/#event-list

Simple ajax code not working?

<form>
<input type="text" id="user"/>
<input type="button" value="Submit" onClick="post();" />
</form>
<div id="result"> </div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function post()
{
var username = $('#user').val();
$.post('battlephp.php',
{postuser:user}
)
}
</script>
Its a simple Ajax code.. It should take username and display the Php code!
But don't know why its not running?? Actually I am learning...so I cant rectify the error or fault??
I am running ii on localhost.. so is there any problem with using:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
display the Php code
No, it shouldn't.
First, you've changed your mind about the variable name you are using (user, username) half way through your script, so you are going to throw a reference error.
Second, you haven't provided a function (the third argument) to $.post, so you aren't doing anything (such as displaying it) with the returned data.
Third, the server should execute the PHP and return its output. You shouldn't get the actual PHP code.
function post() {
var username = $('#user').val();
$.post(
'battlephp.php',
{postuser:username}, // Be consistent about your variable names
function (data) {
alert(data);
}
);
}
Instead
document.ready()
you can use
jQuery(function($){...});
Try to do this:
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
function post() {
var username = $('#user').val();
$.ajax({
type : 'post',
url : 'batttlephp.php',
data : {
postuser : user
},
success : function(data) {
alert(data);
},
error : function(data) {
alert(data);
}
});
});
});
</script>
if you're doing a ajax request then is good also handle success and error...
Also I suggest to you "to start the document".
Try the code above and let us know if worked

Show DIV with AJAX in PHP After Saving Data to Mysql

I Have a problem here. I try to show up the information box using DIV after successfully save the data to mysql.
Here my short code.
// Mysql insertion process
if($result){?>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$.ajax({
$('#info').fadeIn(1000).delay(5000).fadeOut(1000)
$('#infomsg').html('Success.')
});
}
</script>
<?php }
How can DIV appear? I tried but nothing comes up. Any help? Thank you
a basic jQuery ajax request:
$(function() {
$.ajax({
url: "the url you want to send your request to",
success: function() {
//something you want to do upon success
}
});
}
lets say you have a session of ID and you want to retrieve it in your database.
here is: info.php
<input type="hidden" name="id"><input>
<input type="submit" onclick="showResult(id)" value="Click to Show Result"></input>
function showResult(id){
$j.ajax(
method:"POST",
url:"example.php",
data: {userid:id},
sucess: function(success){
$('#infomsg').html(Success)
});
}
<div id= "infomsg"></div>
example.php
$id = $_POST['userid']; ///////from the data:{userid :id}
//////////config of your db
$sql = mysql_query("select * from users where id = $id");
foreach ($sql as $sq){
echo $sq['id']."<br>";
}
the "infomsg" will get the result from the function success and put it in the div.

How do I call MVC Controller from with Javascript function

I have a onclick event on a submit button in my CI app. So when user clicks submit, it goes to my js function that disables the button, but it does not continue processing. I used this “document.forms[“mainFrm”].submit();”, but because of the way the code is written I need it to go directly to a controller and finish processing.
So how do I call a CI controller from my js function?
Here is the function that is being called onClick:
function disableWhenSubmit()
{
alert ("You did get here");
var holdBtnElement = document.getElementById('btn_Add');
holdBtnElement.disabled = true;
holdBtnElement.value = "sending ...";
//document.forms["createRequestForm"].submit();
<?= base_url();?>index.php/request"; //this is what I am working on
}
and here is the button:
input type="submit" id="btn_Add" name="btn_Add" value="Submit">
index.php
<script>
// create a global var before calling your external
// javascript file(s).
var BASE_PATH = "<?php echo base_url();?>";
</script>
<script src="link_to_myjavascript.js"></script>
myjavascript.js (jQuery example)
(function($){
$(function(){
var do_ajax = function(some_params){
$.ajax({
url : BASE_PATH + 'controller/method',
});
}
if(conditions)
{
do_ajax(some_params);
}
});
})(jQuery);
Look at ajax call.
Using prototypejs or Jquery
<input type="button" onclick="dosomething()" />
example
<script>
function dosomething() {
var url = "something.php";
new Ajax.Request(url, {
parameters: {//parameters},
onSuccess: function(transport){
// do something when response is good
},
onFailure: function (request) {
// Do something when somehting goes wrong
});
}
</script>

Do php query with ajax

I'd like to do a sql query with ajax so I don't need to reload the page / load a new page.
So basicly I need to call a php page with ajax. And it would be great if there could be a way to reload a count of amount of rows in a table too.
Edit: to make it more clear, it should be able to do something along the lines of when you click the Like button on Facebook.
Thanks

if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari

{// code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");

xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()

if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
{
document.getElementById("your_div").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;

xmlhttp.send();

You don't want to query using ajax, you want to get new data using ajax, which is a fundamental difference.
You should just, using ajax, request a php page with perhaps some parameters, which in turn executes the query and returns the data in a format you can handle (most likely: json).
If you allow queries to be executed using ajax, how are you going to prevent a malicious user from sending drop table users, instead of select * from news where id = 123?
You won't do a sql query with ajax, what you need to do is call an external php page (one where your query is) in the background using ajax. Here is a link that explains how to do it with jquery: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
"Facebook Like" button in Agile Toolkit (PHP UI Library):
$likes = get_like_count();
$view = $this->add('View');
$button = $view->add('Button')->setLabel('Like');
$view->add('Text')->set($likes);
if($button->isClicked()){
increate_like_count();
$view->js()->reload()->execute();
}
p.s. no additional JS or HTML code needed.
function onClick(){
$.post(
"path/to/file", //Ajax file ajax_file.php
{ value : value ,insiId : insiId }, // parameters if you want send
//function that is called when server returns a value.
function(data){
if(data){
$("#row_"+data.id).show(); //display div rows
}
},"json"
);
}
<div id="myDiv">here are your contents</div>
<button type="button" onclick="onClick()">Change Content</button>
Here the ajax code that you can call to the server side php file and get the out put and do what you want
You are wrong, who says that he is submitting the whole query who is telling that he is not filtering? U can do all this easy with the jquery load function, you load a php file like that $('#BOX').load('urfile.php?param=...');.
Have fun,
i hope that was a little helpful for you, sry bcs of my bad english.
Possible solution: Ajax calls PHP scripts which make the query and return the new number
$.ajax({
async:true,
type:GET,
url:'<PHP_FILE>',
cache:false,
data:'<GET_PARAMETERS_SENT_TO_PHP_FILE>',
dataType:'json',
success: function(data){
$('<#HTML_TARGET>').html(data);
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){
$('<#HTML_TARGET>').html('<div class="ajax_error">'+errorThrown+'</div>');
}
});
Where
<PHP_FILE> is your php script which output must be encoded according to dataType. The available types (and the result passed as the first argument to your success callback) are: "xml", "html", "script", "json", "jsonp", "text".
<GET_PARAMETER_SENT_TO_PHP> is a comma separate list of value sent via GET (es. 'mode=ajax&mykey=myval')
<#HTML_TARGET> is the jquery selector
See jquery.ajax for more details.
For example:
<p>Votes:<span id="count_votes"></span></p>
<script type="text/javascript">
$.ajax({
async:true,
type:GET,
url:'votes.php',
cache:false,
dataType:'text',
data:'id=4'
success: function(data){
$('#count_votes').html(data);
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){
$('#count_votes').html(errorThrown);
}
});
</script>
If your looking for something like the facebook like btn. Then your PHP code should look something like this -
<?php
$topic_no = $_POST['topic'];
$topic_likes = update_Like_count($topic_no);
echo $topic_likes;
function update_Like_count($topic)
{
//update database by incrementing the likes by one and get new value
return $count;
}
?>
and the javascript/jquery ajax should be something like so -
<script>
$('#like-btn').click( function () {
$.post(
"like.php",
{ topic : value },
function(data)
{
if(data)
{
$("#like-btn span").append(data); //or append it to wherever you'd like to show it
}
else
{
echo "error";
}
},
"json"
);
});
</script>
Here is an example which uses a favorite jQuery plugin of mine, jQuery.tmpl(), and also the jQuery .text() function.
HTML and Javascript Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/jquery.templates/beta1/jquery.tmpl.min.js"></script>

<script>
function getData(group_id) {
$.ajax({
dataType: "json",

success: function( data ) {
var users = data.users;
/* Remove current set of movie template items */
$( "#userList" ).empty();
/* Render the template with the movies data and insert
the rendered HTML under the "movieList" element */
$( "#UserTemplate" ).tmpl( users )
.appendTo( "#userList" );
$( "#UserCount" ).text('Number of users: '+ data.count);

});
}
$( "#facebookBtn" ).click( function() {

PHP Code
<?php

HTML:
//result div will display result

//make a connection and then query
$query_txt = "SELECT count(*) FROM table ";
$result= mysql_query($query_txt) or die(mysql_error());
