How to get text filed value in ajax? - php

Question

I have a table with dynamic data from database, each row consist of a text filed and 2 link (accept or reject). then if user clicks on any of these link, the row will disappear and the rest of the rows are only visible in table.
I get ID of each row with ajax by clicking on each link, however I also need to get the text-field value.
how can I get it?
I need to have in ajax cause after getting value I need to insert in database with php+sql.
this is my ajax part for link:
$('a.accept').click(function(d) {
d.preventDefault();
var parent = $(this).parent();
$.ajax({
type: 'get',
url: 'Test.php',
data: 'ajax=1&accept=' + parent.attr('id').replace('record-',''),
beforeSend: function() {
parent.animate({'backgroundColor':'#fb6c6c'},300);
},
success: function() {
parent.slideUp(300,function() {
parent.remove();
});
}
});
});
});
how can I include text filed value in it?
please comment me which I'm really in need to solve it,
Thanks

Answer 1

You can add manually your text to the GET request.
(snippet)
data: 'ajax=1&accept=' + parent.attr('id').replace('record-','') + '&text=VALUE',
Substitute text with the name you want to be received in PHP. Substitute VALUE with the text entered on the page that you want to grab - and don't forget to encode the value.

Answer 2

You will need the name of id of the textfield first. Then you could do something like this:
var textboxvalue = $('name or id of textfield').val();
Then you will need to append this value to your data string:
data: 'ajax=1&textvalue='+textboxvalue+'accept=' + parent.attr('id').replace('record-',''),
Then you can use $_GET['textvalue']; to get the value of textbox.

Use following and you're good to go. Also you had extra '});' at the end line of JS fragment. I had it removed. But make sure you give id to text fields in following pattern : text-fld-RECORD_ID where RECORD_ID is the ID of the record.
$('a.accept').click(function(d) {
d.preventDefault();
var parent = $(this).parent();
var id = parent.attr('id').replace('record-','');
//make sure that text field has ID in pattern 'text-fld-RECORD_ID'
var text_fld = $('#text-fld-'+id).val();
$.ajax({
type: 'post', // I suggest using post; get will be harmful in such occasions
url: 'Test.php',
data: {ajax:1,accept:id,text:text_fld},
beforeSend: function() {
parent.animate({'backgroundColor':'#fb6c6c'},300);
},
success: function() {
parent.slideUp(300,function() {
parent.remove();
});
}
});
});
