Jquery Ajax is not working with Codeigniter - javascript

I am a ajax beginner, Here I am trying to show a text box value in same page using Ajax.
My Controller code:
<?php
class Merchant extends CI_Controller
{
public function ajaxtest()
{
$this->load->helper('url');
$this->load->view('ajaxtest');
$fullname = $this->input->post("fullname");
echo $fullname;
}
}
?>
Here is my view code:
<head>
<script src="<?php echo base_url();?>assets/js/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#getinfo").click(function()
{
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "<?php echo base_url(); ?>merchant/ajaxtest",
data: {textbox: $("#fullname").val()},
dataType: "text",
cache:false,
success:
function(data){
$('#mytext').html(data);
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post">
<input type="text" id="fullname"/>
<input type="button" value="getinfo" id="getinfo"/>
<span id="mytext"></span>
</form>
</body>
When I click on the button getinfo, I want to show the text inside the text box as span text. But now it shows nothing..
Updated:
After experts' opinion, I edited some text(see my edit note), Now When i click on the button, it shows again a textbox and a button.. !!

Did you set the base_url variable with a link on the Javascript?
Because your post url contains this variable and you need set this to make it work. So initialize the variable with the base_url link.
See the corrected example below . Set your domain instead of the yourbaseurl.com
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var base_url='http://yourbaseurl.com/index.php/';
$("#getinfo").click(function()
{
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: base_url + "merchant/ajaxtest",
data: {textbox: $("#fullname").val()},
dataType: "text",
cache:false,
success:
function(data){
$('#mytext').html(data);
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>

Your base_url variable seems to be undefined in your JavaScript.
One simple approach to get the base URL is to echo it out in a hidden input, and then grab the value of that input in your JS code:
HTML
<input type='hidden' id="baseUrl" value="<?php echo base_url(); ?>" />
JS
var base_url = $('#baseUrl').val();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: base_url + "/merchant/ajaxtest",
data: {textbox: $("#fullname").val()},
dataType: "text",
// ...

you are passing in textbox as parameter from your ajax to controller and trying to get POST data with name fullname. That wont work, since you passed in the name of parameter as textbox, access that in your post, as :
class Merchant extends CI_Controller
{
public function ajaxtest()
{
$this->load->helper('url');
//you dont need to load view so comment it
//$this->load->view('ajaxtest');
$fullname = $this->input->post("textbox"); //not fullname
echo $fullname;
}
}
js
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var base_url='http://yourbaseurl.com/index.php/';
$("#getinfo").click(function() {
var fullname = $("#fullname").val();
alert("Fullname:" + fullname); //do you get this alert
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: base_url + "merchant/ajaxtest",
data: {textbox: fullname},
cache:false,
success:function(data){
alert("Response:" + data); //do you get this alert
$('#mytext').html(data);
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>

Try using this:
<base href="<?=base_url();?>">
<script src="assets/js/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
And this in ajaxtest:
$this->load->helper('url');
And also Comment out this:
// $this->load->view('ajaxtest');

Might be a little late with this response - but someone might find this while searching for a solution.
I was having the same issues with Codeigniter and JQuery ajax/post response. I could not get this to work no matter what I tried.
In the end, it turned out to be php_error that was causing the problem. Once I removed it, everything worked fine with my post/response.

Ajax not able to post javascript variable to php

I want to post values of a JavaScript variable to a PHP page, and then use those values there.
I get back a new HTML page, which I did not want to happen. Also, it is showing the error message produced by:
echo"some error";
What am I missing? I don't understand why this happens?
Here is my html file try.html
<html>
<head>
<title>try</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<a id="button" href="try.php" target="_blank">send data</a>
<script>
var sum2= 2010;
$('#button').click(function() {
var val1=sum2;
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'try.php',
data: { text: val1 },
dataType: 'script' // I am not sure about what I write here script,json,html?
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
And this is my PHP file try.php
<?php
if(isset($_POST['text']))
{
$text = $_POST['text'];
echo $text;
}
else {
echo"some error";
}
?>
In try.php if you echo something which in turn will comeback to try.html.
If you just want to post the data to try.php and echo there the just use form and submit. You dont need ajax in that.
Ajax is to send the data/receive back without reloading the existing page. The response will be seen in the current page itself.
<html>
<head>
<title>try</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<a id="button" href="try.php">send data</a>
<script>
var sum2= 2010;
$('#button').click(function() {
var val1=sum2;
var json_params = {
text: val1
};
var json_data = JSON.stringify(json_params);
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'try.php',
data: json_data,
dataType: "html",
success: function(response)
{
alert(response);
}
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
In the try.php page you can place this code
<?php
if (isset($_POST)){
$data = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'));
print_r($data);
}
else{
echo "not set";
}
?>
Firstly, remove script from data-type.
This is how you can pass the data to php file:
$('#button').click(function() {
var val1=sum2;
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'try.php',
data: { text: val1 },
});
});
dataType - The type of data that you're expecting back from the
server. Here you don't want anything in return then it's fine. If you
are expecting anything like json or something, you can specify it.
If You want anything in response, you can handle in this manner
$('#button').click(function() {
var val1=sum2;
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'try.php',
data: { text: val1 },
});
success: function (data) {
//Your success handler code
},
});
success - A callback function to be executed when Ajax request
succeeds.
Firstly remove href from link. By this it is directly redirecting to try.php
<a id="button" href="javascript:void(0);" target="_blank">send data</a>

codeigniter sending a variable from ajax to controller

I'm currently doing an ajax add,update and delete. And I think I'll just start with the delete since it is the easiest and hope that it might help me in the others.
In jquery (this is inside $doc.ready and the event is triggered properly)
if ($a == "Delete")
{
var postid = $(this).next('.postid').val();
$(this).closest(".todo-content").fadeOut();
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: 'json',
url: "<?=base_url()?>.index.php/classes/deletepost",
data: {postid: postid},
async: false,
});
}
in html
<form method="post">
<button class="btn" onclick="return confirm('Are you sure to delete this item?')">Delete</button>
<input type="hidden" value="<?php echo $id; ?>" name="postid">
</form>
In controller
public function deletepost(){
$id = $this->input->post('postid');
$data = array('active' => 0);
$this->Model_name->deletepost($id,$data);
redirect('/abc/123');
}
This is already working but then I am planning on making the crud to ajax. I'm trying to pass the postid from ajax to controller to delete this post. The fadeout already works but only the ajax does not. I'm very new to ajax so I do not know where I am going wrong and I might also ask questions again regarding the other parts of crud.
Fixed!
The problem was the url inside the $.ajax. It returns a garbage.
So I added a script in the header
<script type="text/javascript">
var BASE_URL = "<?php echo base_url();?>";
</script>
And just use BASE_URL in the url: like so url: BASE_URL+'classes/deletepost',
Please Try to follow this:
In Codeigniters View:
<!-- Store ID and baseurl as attributes . this would help you to fetch data -->
<button class="btn" postId="5" baseUrl="<?php echo base_url();?>" id="button">Delete</button>
<!-- Store ID and baseurl as attributes . this would help you to fetch data -->
<button class="btn" postId="5" baseUrl="<?php echo base_url();?>" id="button">Delete</button>
<!-- reading jquery file .. -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/jquery/js_search/jquery.js"></script>
<!--you can write file in extra js file .. it depends on you -->
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#button').click(function(){
// ask for confirmation
var result = confirm("Want to delete?");
// if it is confirmed
if (result) {
// get baseURL and ID using attributes
var base_url = $('#button').attr('baseUrl');
var postid = $('#button').attr('postId');
// make a ajax request
$.ajax({
url: base_url,
type: "POST",
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
if(data){
// Fade out the content id
$('#content_id').closest(".todo-content").fadeOut();
}
}
});
}
});
</script>
in controller:
// You just need to delete the post and return a status code of "200"
public function deletepost(){
$id = $this->input->post('postid');
$data = array('active' => 0);
$this->Model_name->deletepost($id,$data);
redirect('/abc/123');
}

Using AJAX/Jquery to Replace div

I am trying to set the content of an empty div after an AJAX call with the data message. I also wired the function to my CHtml::submitButton, which should call the function when clicked, but nothing is happening. Any suggestions?
<div id="myResult">
</div>
JavaScript:
function successMessage(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
data: "<div> Replace div with this contentf</div>",
success: function(data){
$('myResult').html(data);
}
})
}
PHP:
echo CHtml::beginForm(array('myForm'), 'get', array('form'));
echo '<div class="row form">';
echo '<div class="row buttons">';
echo CHtml::submitButton('Download Content', array('htmlOptions' => 'successMessage()'));
echo '</div>';
echo '</div>';
Your problem relies in the following line:
$('myResult').html(data);
Here, you are trying to do a jquery selection to an element, which you are not using in your html (this is only possible via pollyfils). So you have to select the element by its ID:
$('#myResult').html(data);
And another thing i've seen, what is the url where you are doing the request?
<script>
function successMessage(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/please/add/an/url/",
data: "<div> Replace div with this contentf</div>",
success: function(data){
$('myResult').html(data);
}
})
}
</script>
first of all, when you are using onclick function like this :
<input type="submit" onclick="successMessage()">
you should use this instead:
<input type="submit" onclick="successMessage();result false;">
but when you are already using jquery, then better approach is:
$( document ).ready(function() {
successMessage(){
// your ajax goes here
}
$('#myResult').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
successMessage();
});
});
Then you need to repair your successMessage function. You see, the data you are setting there are not the data, that are coming out as an output. If you need ajax then you probably want to get the result from some php script on some other url. Then you should do it like this :
function successMessage(){
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url : 'index2.php',
dataType: "json",
data: { mydata: '<div> Replace div with this content</div>'},
success: function(data){
$('#myResult').html(data);
}
})
}
Then you need a php file named index2.php which can look like this :
<?php
echo json_encode($_GET['variable']);
?>
And i dont know if this your line :
echo CHtml::submitButton('Download Content', array('htmlOptions' => 'successMessage()'));
also put the </form> tag after the form to close it.
This should work for you. I tried it and it works fine.
Try this:
$.ajax({
url: "test.html",
type: "GET",
data: "<div> Replace div with this contentf</div>",
success: function(data){
$('#myResult').html(data);
}
})
selector jQuery incorrect in response ajax. and define Url in ajax.

Passing POST variables from jQuery to PHP, want to update div

I am trying to pass the form value "New Value" from jQuery to a PHP script, and then update the "to_change" div from "Old value" to "New value". It seemed like the AJAX call succeeded, but the POST variables are not being sent to the PHP script, and when I use getJSON, I do not succeed. How could I resolve this issue?
Javascript/HTML code:
<html>
<head>
<script src = 'jquery-1.10.2.js'></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#form_tmin").submit(function(event) {
var values = $(this).serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "parameters_form2.php",
data: values,
dataType: "json",
success: function(data){
$.getJSON("parameters_form2.php", function(tmin) {
document.getElementById("to_change").innerHTML = tmin[1];
});
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="to_change">Old value</div>
<form id="form_tmin" name="form_tmin">
<input type="hidden" id="tmin_value" name="tmin_value" value="New value">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
PHP code:
<?php
header('Content-Type: application/json');
if ($_POST["tmin_value"]) {
$tmin[1] = $_REQUEST["tmin_value"];
}
else {
$tmin[1] = "FAILURE";
}
echo json_encode($tmin);
?>
You already have json response in data just set this data in where ever you want to display. you don not need $.getJSON again.
try like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#form_tmin").submit(function(event) {
var values = $(this).serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "parameters_form2.php",
data: values,
dataType: "json",
success: function(data){
document.getElementById("to_change").innerHTML = data[1];
}
});
return false;
});
});
You already have the response of query, no need to use $.getJson again
Instead just use:
success: function(data){
$("to_change").html(data[1]);
}

How to pass data to PHP page through AJAX and then display that page in another's DIV?

I have 2 pages with which I am working with: test1.php and test2.php. test1.php contains 2 <DIV> tags, one named "SubmitDiv" and the other named "DisplayDiv". In SubmitDiv, there is a check box and a submit button. When the check box is checked and the submit button is clicked, I would like it to display test2.php in the DisplayDiv div tag. I have figured that much already.
However, now I want test2.php to receive data from test1.php and process that data. In this case, it is receiving the checkbox's name, "chk" and will be printing that with an echo command. This is where I am a bit stumped as to how to go about this. After searching a bit for an answer, this is what I have written so far:
test1.php:
<html>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<script type="text/javascript">
function sendQuery() {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'test2.php',
data: $('#SubmitForm').serialize(),
success: function() {
$('#DisplayDiv').load('test2.php');
}
});
return false;
}
</script>
<body>
<form id="SubmitForm" action="" method="post">
<div id="SubmitDiv" style="background-color:black;color:white;">
<input type="checkbox" id="chk" name="chk" form="SubmitForm" value="chk">CHECK</input><br>
<button name="submit" id="submit" type="submit" form="SubmitForm" onclick="return sendQuery();">Submit</button>
</div>
</form>
<div id="DisplayDiv"></div>
</body>
</html>
test2.php:
<html>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<?php
$chk = $_POST['chk'];
echo $chk;
?>
</html>
When the submit button is clicked, however, all it does is refresh the page, rather than display the test2.php in the DisplayDiv like it's supposed to. Any ideas on how to pass the data to test2.php and then also display it within the DisplayDiv section?
Instead of .load function use the following
success: function(response) {
$('#DisplayDiv').html(response);
}
If you want to use e.preventDefault(); you must pass the event to the function
function sendQuery(e) {
e.preventDefault();
//...
}
Otherwise I assume your form is simply submitted on click.
You must first remove e.preventDefault(); in the sendQuery function because that is failing to return false onclick.
Then change your AJAX call to as follows:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'test2.php',
data: $('#SubmitForm').serialize(),
success: function(data) {
$("#DisplayDiv").html(data);
}
});
This works:
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'data.php',
data: {
"id": 123,
"name": "abc",
"email": "abc#gmail.com"
},
success: function (ccc) {
alert(ccc);
$("#result").html(ccc);
}
});
Include jQuery:
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
data.php
echo $id = $_GET['id'];
echo $name = $_GET['name'];
echo $email = $_GET['email'];
