I made an ajax form with json response. The json array contains information out of a mysql database. Now I want to show these datas in a table.
I made a placeholder in the html file which is hidden.
Here my Code for the ajax/json part:
$("#select_coffee_talk_year").button().click(function() {
var form = $('#coffee_talk_year');
var data = form.serialize();
$.ajax({
url: "include/scripts/select_event.php",
type: "POST",
data: data,
dataType: 'json',
success: function (select) {
//alert(select.ID[0]);
//alert(select.ID[1]);
//alert(select.ID.length);
$("#coffee_talk").fadeOut();
$("#coffee_talk").fadeIn();
}
});
return false;
});
This is my html:
<p class="bold underline headline">Bereits eingetragen:</p>
<form id="coffee_talk_year" action="include/scripts/select_event.php" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
<select name="year_coffee_talk" id="year_coffee_talk">
<option value="none" class="bold italic">Jahr</option>
<?php
for($i=2008; $i<=$year; $i++){
if ($i == $year) {
echo "<option value=\"".$i."\" selected=\"$i\">".$i."</option>\n";
} else echo "<option value=\"".$i."\">".$i."</option>\n";
}
?>
</select>
<button id="select_coffee_talk_year">anzeigen</button>
<input type="hidden" name="coffee_talk_year_submit" value="true" />
</form>
<br />
<div id="coffee_talk"></div>
<br />
<button id="add_coffee_talk">hinzufügen</button>
select_event.php:
if ('POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD']) {
/*******************************/
/** Erzaehlcafe auswählen
/*******************************/
if (isset($_POST['coffee_talk_year_submit'])) {
$getID = array();
$getDate = array();
$getTheme = array();
$getContributer = array();
$getBegin = array();
$getPlace = array();
$getEntrance = array();
$getFlyer = array();
$sql = "SELECT
ID,
Date,
Theme,
Contributer,
Begin,
Place,
Entrance,
Flyer
FROM
Coffee_talk
WHERE
YEAR(Date) = '".mysqli_real_escape_string($db, $_POST['year_coffee_talk'])."'
";
if (!$result = $db->query($sql)) {
return $db->error;
}
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$getID[$i] = $row['ID'];
$getDate[$i] = $row['Date'];
$getTheme[$i] = $row['Theme'];
$getContributer[$i] = $row['Contributer'];
$getBegin[$i] = $row['Begin'];
$getPlace[$i] = $row['Place'];
$getEntrance[$i] = $row['Entrance'];
$getFlyer[$i] = $row['Flyer'];
$i++;
}
$result->close();
$response['ID'] = $getID;
$response['Date'] = $getDate;
$response['Theme'] = $getTheme;
$response['Contributer'] = $getContributer;
$response['Begin'] = $getBegin;
$response['Place'] = $getPlace;
$response['Entrance'] = $getEntrance;
$response['Flyer'] = $getFlyer;
echo json_encode($response);
}
}
Div with id=coffee_talk is my placeholder. Now I wish to fade in the table with its data and if I change the year and submit it with the button I wish to fade the old one out and fade new in.
My only problem is that I need to write this table in php with loops. But I think its not possible in Java Script. What should I do?
PS I used ajax cause I dont want to have a reload all the time.
.html
as you say; you can explicitly build nodes one at a time and build a document fragment; or you can build HTML in your PHP and transport it as HTML and not JSON, and use$('#...').load('select_event.php')
