I am trying to pass multiple variables from one php file to another via jquery but nothing is happening at all and i also can see that there is error in javascript code but i can not firgure out what is really wrong !
HTML Code :
<form id="edit" action="" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="name" value="wael">
<input type="text" name="phone" value="0103941454">
<input type="text" name="address" value="address">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send">
</form>
<div style="display:none;" id="feedback"></div>
Jquery code :
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#edit').submit(function(){
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'edit.php',
dataType:'json',
data:$('#edit').serialize(),
success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
};
});
});
});
PHP Code :
<?php
echo "Just testing functionality!":
?>
Please I need help to figure out what is wrong with this code.
In your JS code, you have to stop the form from being submitted, use e.preventDefault(), and there was a syntax error at the end of the success callback. Try this -
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#edit').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
//^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Added this.
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'edit.php',
dataType:'json',
data:$('#edit').serialize(),
success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
}
//^ There was a comma here. Remove it.
});
});
});
Now, with this, your code will execute without syntax errors, but your success callback will not called because, you have dataType:'json', so the return value from php will have to be valid json otherwise there will be a parsing error and your success callback will not be called.
To detect that, you need to use the error callback. This is a more complete AJAX call -
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#edit').submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'edit.php',
dataType:'json',
data:$('#edit').serialize(),
success:function(data) {
console.log("success");
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
},
error: function( jqXHR,textStatus,errorThrown ){
console.log(textStatus);
}
});
});
});
With your PHP code, which returns invalid JSON, the parsing error will be thrown.Try using json_encode() in your PHP if you want to return JSON data.For example, try this in your edit.php file -
<?php
header("Content-Type: application/json");
echo json_encode("Just testing functionality!");
?>
For posting form data it is good to use JQuery Form plugin which provide easy way to send data and receive response.
http://malsup.com/jquery/form/
Check this, and check examples where you will find easy and simple examples.
Also, using this plugin, you will have no need to fetch the form data in your jquery or use the jquery ajax function. The data will be directly posted to the form action by ajax when submitted.
Hope this will help.
add return false; to the end of your .submit() function to prevent the form from submitting
$('#edit').submit(function(){
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'edit.php',
dataType:'json',
data:$('#edit').serialize(),
success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
}
});
return false; //here. otherwise the form will submit to its self not edit.php
});
try this code
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#edit').submit(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'edit.php',
dataType:'json',
data:$('#edit').serialize(),
success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
}
});
});
});
I have made two changes here .
1. event.preventDefault();
for prevent the default action.
2. success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
}
instead of
success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
};
apart from what Kamehameha and kanishka-panamaldeniya wrote down, you can achieve your goal in this way:
data: { name:wael ,phone:0103941454, address:address }
and
type:'post'
As said you need to call preventDeafult function on the event object; This function prevent the submit action to occur.
$('#edit').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
As a form of optimization you can also refer to $(this) inside your ajax call, instead to doing a new DOM traversing with $(#edit).serialize().
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url:'edit.php',
dataType:'json',
data:$(this).serialize(), // <- modified here
success:function(data) {
$('#feedback').html(data).fadeIn().delay(5000).fadeOut();
}
});
and then yes, as #Kamehameha said, you need to return valid json from your edit.php, so
//edit.php
echo json_encode("Just testing functionality!");

I'm trying to post data on my HTML code to CI with Ajax. But I got no response?
Here is my JS Code
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#simpan").click(function(){
nama_pelanggan = $("#nama_pelanggan").val();
telp = $("#telp").val();
jQuery.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://192.168.100.100/booking_dev/booking/addBookingViaWeb/",
dataType: 'json',
data : {
"nama_pelanggan":nama_pelanggan,
"telp":telp,
},
success: function(res) {
if (res){
alert(msg);
}
}
});
});
});
And here is my form
<form>
Nama Pelanggan <br>
<input type="text" name="nama_pelanggan" id="nama_pelanggan"><br>
Telepon<br>
<input type="text" name="telp" id="telp"><br>
<input type="button" name="simpan" id="submit" value="Simpan">
</form>
and here is my contoller function code
public function addBookingViaWeb(){
$data = array(
'nama_pelanggan' => $this->input->post('nama_pelanggan'),
'telp'=>$this->input->post('telp')
);
echo json_encode($data);
}
Here is my post param
But I got no response
any idea?
add method in from if you use post then
<form method="post" action ="" >
Try using JQuery form serialize() to declare which data you want to post. It automatically put your form input into ajax data. Example :
first set ID to your form tag
<form id="form">
then
$.ajax({
type:'POST',
url : 'http://192.168.100.100/booking_dev/booking/addBookingViaWeb/',
data:$('#form').serialize(),
dataType:'JSON',
success:function(data){
console.log(data);
}
});
First problem I see is in your ajax submission code. Change
$("#simpan").click(function(){
to
$("#submit").click(function(event){
Notice that I added the event parameter. You now need to prevent the default submission behavior. On the first line of your click method add
event.preventDefault();
Now I'm assuming that your url endpoint http://192.168.100.100/booking_dev/booking/addBookingViaWeb/ can handle POST requests. Usually this is done with something like PHP or Ruby on Rails. If I was doing this in PHP I would write something like the following:
<?php
$arg1 = $_POST["nama_pelanggan"];
$arg2 = $_POST["telp"];
// do something with the arguments
$response = array("a" => $a, "b" => $b);
echo json_encode($response);
?>
I personally don't know anything about handling POST requests with js (as a backend) but what I've given you should get the data over there correctly.
I got solution for my problem from my friend xD
just add header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *"); on controller function
Thank you for helping answer my problem.
My form
<form id="reservationForm" action="sendmail.php" method="post">
...
.
.
.
.
<input type="image" src="images/res-button.png" alt="Submit" class="submit" width="251" height="51px">
My javascript
$("#reservationForm").submit(function () {
e.preventDefault();
var $form = $(this);
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'sendmail.php',
data: $('#form').serialize(),

i don't want to run any validation because i have user 'required' in all types. i just want to send data to my php while staying at the same contact form. but this only load my php file and send the e-mail. looks like it dosen't run my javascript. please help
You haven't defined the event argument in the callback. Change this line as follows and it should work:
$("#reservationForm").submit(function (e) {
...
EDIT: BTW: The .submit event handler of jQuery short hand is deprecated. You should be using .on('submit', ...instead.
i need help..why does my code not working?what is the proper way to get the data from a form.serialize? mines not working.. also am doing it right when passing it to php? also my php code looks awful and does not look like a good oop
html
<form action="" name="frm" id="frm" method="post">
<input type="text" name="title_val" value="" id="title_val"/>
post topic
</form>
<div id="test">
</div>
Javascript
$( document ).ready(function() {
$('#save').click(function() {
var form = $('#frm');
$.ajax({
url: 'topic.php',
type:'get',
data: form.serializeArray(),
success: function(response) {
$('#test').html(response);
}
});
});
});
Php
<?php
class test{
public function test2($val){
return $val;
}
}
$test = new test();
echo $test->test2($_POST['title_val']);
?>
OUTPUT
You're telling your ajax call to send the variables as GET variables, then trying to access them with the $_POST hyperglobal. Change GET to POST:
type:'post',
Also, it should be noted that you are binding your ajax call to the click on your submit button, so your form will still be posting. You should bind on the form's submit function instead and use preventDefault to prevent the form posting.
$('#frm').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault(); // stop form processing normally
$.ajax({
url: 'topic.php',
type: 'post',
data: $(this).serializeArray(),
success: function(response) {
$('#test').html(response);
}
});
});
I am trying to add users to a database using jquery ajax calls. The users get added just fine to the database, but the ajax always returns with error. I'm not sure how to retrieve the specific error either. Below is my code, form, php, and jquery.
Here is the jquery
$(document).ready(function() {
//ajax call for all forms.
$('.button').click(function() {
var form = $(this).closest('form');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: form.attr('data'),
dataType: 'json',
data: form.serialize(),
success: function (response) {
alert('something');
},
error: function() {
alert('fail');
}
});
});
});
Here is the PHP
<?php
include 'class_lib.php';
if(isset($_POST['username'])) {
$user = new Users;
$user->cleanInput($_POST['username'], $_POST['password']);
if($user->insertUser()) {
echo json_encode('true');
} else {
echo json_encode('false');
}
}
Here is the HTML
<div id='newUser' class='tool'>
<h3>New User</h3>
<form method='post' name='newUser' data='../php/newUser.php'>
<span>Username</span><input type='text' name='username'><br>
<span>Password</span><input type='password' name='password'>
<input type='submit' name='submit' class='button' style='visibility: hidden'>
</form>
<span class='result'> </span>
</div>
#Musa, above you mentioned
My guess is its a parsing error, try removing dataType: 'json', and see if it works
You absolutely solved the problem I was having! My ajax post request was similar to above and it just kept returning to the 'error' section. Although I checked using firebug, the status was 200(ok) and there were no errors.
removing 'dataType:json' solved this issue for me. Thanks a lot!
Turns out I had to add async: false to the $.ajax function. It wasn't getting a response back from the php.
I know this is an old question but I have just run into a weird situation like this ( jquery ajax returns success when directly executed, but returns error when attached to button, even though server response is 200 OK )
And found that having the button inside the form tags caused JQuery to always return error. Simply changing the form tags to div solved the problem.
I believe JQuery assumes the communication should be form encoded, even though you say it is application/json.
Try moving your button outside your form and see what happens...
I had the same problem and discovery there. All the time the problem is the version of my jQuery, I had use jquery version (jquery-1.10.2.js) but this version is not Ajax stablish. So, I change version for (jquery-1.8.2.js) and this miracle heppened.
Good Luck Guy!
You should specify status Code 200 for successful response.
<?php
http_response_code(200);
?>
See here: http://php.net/manual/en/function.http-response-code.php
The first solution
Try to remove dataType in your js file like that:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.button').click(function() {
var form = $(this).closest('form');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: form.attr('data'),
data: form.serialize(),
success: function (response) {
alert('something');
},
error: function() {
alert('fail');
}
});
});
});
The second solution
Send a real clean JSON to AJAX like that:
PHP
if(isset($_POST['username'])) {
$user = new Users;
$user->cleanInput($_POST['username'], $_POST['password']);
if($user->insertUser()) {
$error = [
"title"=> 'true',
"body"=> 'some info here ... '
];
echo json_encode($error);
} else {
$error = [
"title"=> 'false',
"body"=> 'some info here ... '
];
echo json_encode($error);
}
}
JavaScript
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.button').click(function() {
var form = $(this).closest('form');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: form.attr('data'),
dataType: 'json',
data: form.serialize(),
success: function (data) {
let x = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data));
console.log(x.title);
console.log(x.body);
},
error: function() {
//code here
}
});
});
});
I have a form similar to the following:
<form method="post" action="mail.php" id="myForm">
<input type="text" name="fname">
<input type="text" name="lname">
<input type="text" name="email">
<input type="submit">
</form>
I am new to AJAX and what I am trying to accomplish is when the user clicks the submit button, I would like for the mail.php script to run behind the scenes without refreshing the page.
I tried something like the code below, however, it still seems to submit the form as it did before and not like I need it to (behind the scenes):
$.post('mail.php', $('#myForm').serialize());
If possible, I would like to get help implementing this using AJAX,
Many thanks in advance
You need to prevent the default action (the actual submit).
$(function() {
$('form#myForm').on('submit', function(e) {
$.post('mail.php', $(this).serialize(), function (data) {
// This is executed when the call to mail.php was succesful.
// 'data' contains the response from the request
}).error(function() {
// This is executed when the call to mail.php failed.
});
e.preventDefault();
});
});
You haven't provided your full code, but it sounds like the problem is because you are performing the $.post() on submit of the form, but not stopping the default behaviour. Try this:
$('#myForm').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.post('mail.php', $('#myForm').serialize());
});
/**
* it's better to always use the .on(event, context, callback) instead of the .submit(callback) or .click(callback)
* for explanation why, try googling event delegation.
*/
//$("#myForm").on('submit', callback) catches the submit event of the #myForm element and triggers the callbackfunction
$("#myForm").on('submit', function(event, optionalData){
/*
* do ajax logic -> $.post is a shortcut for the basic $.ajax function which would automatically set the method used to being post
* $.get(), $.load(), $.post() are all variations of the basic $.ajax function with parameters predefined like 'method' used in the ajax call (get or post)
* i mostly use the $.ajax function so i'm not to sure extending the $.post example with an addition .error() (as Kristof Claes mentions) function is allowed
*/
//example using post method
$.post('mail.php', $("#myForm").serialize(), function(response){
alert("hey, my ajax call has been complete using the post function and i got the following response:" + response);
})
//example using ajax method
$.ajax({
url:'mail.php',
type:'POST',
data: $("#myForm").serialize(),
dataType: 'json', //expects response to be json format, if it wouldn't be, error function will get triggered
success: function(response){
alert("hey, my ajax call has been complete using the ajax function and i got the following response in json format:" + response);
},
error: function(response){
//as far as i know, this function will only get triggered if there are some request errors (f.e: 404) or if the response is not in the expected format provided by the dataType parameter
alert("something went wrong");
}
})
//preventing the default behavior when the form is submit by
return false;
//or
event.preventDefault();
})
try this:
$(function () {
$('form').submit(function () {
if ($(this).valid()) {
$.ajax({
url: this.action,
type: this.method,
data: $(this).serialize(),
success: function (result) {
$('#result').html(result);
}
});
}
return false;
});
});
The modern way to do this (which also doesn't require jquery) is to use the fetch API. Older browsers won't support it, but there's a polyfill if that's an issue. For example:
var form = document.getElementById('myForm');
var params = {
method: 'post',
body: new FormData(form),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8'
}
};
form.addEventListener('submit', function (e) {
window.fetch('mail.php', params).then(function (response) {
console.log(response.text());
});
e.preventDefault();
});
try this..
<form method="post" action="mail.php" id="myForm" onsubmit="return false;">
OR
add
e.preventDefault(); in your click function
$(#yourselector).click(function(e){
$.post('mail.php', $(this).serialize());
e.preventDefault();
})
You need to prevent default action if you are using input type as submit <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">.
By putting $("form").submit(...) you're attaching the submit handler, this will submit form (this is default action).
If don't want this default action use preventDefault() method.
If you are using other than submit, no need to prevent default.
$("form").submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'save.asmx/saveData',
dataType: 'json',
contentType:"application/json;charset=utf-8",
data: $('form').serialize(),
async:false,
success: function() {
alert("success");
}
error: function(request,error) {
console.log("error");
}
Take a look at the JQuery Post documentation. It should help you out.
