hy,i am working on a wordpress plugin in which i require to delete multiple items using checkbox.when i check all rows and delete them i get their row id in the form of json string.
js code:
$('.check_it:checked').each(function (i){
c[i]=$(this).val();
});
var chk = JSON.stringify({ list: c });
debugger
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
data: chk,
url:'/word/wp-content/plugins/craiglist/action.php?action=delete_leads',
dataType: "json",
success:function(response){
alert('fdsfsfdsfd');
},
failure:function (response) {
alert("Please Try Again");
},
error:function (xhr, status, error) {
alert(xhr.response);
}
});
In var chk i got string like
"{"list":["151","152","153","154","155","156","157","158","159","160","161","162","163","164","165","166","167","168","169","170","171","172","173","174","175"]}"
how can i get it at server side in php and send it to database so i can delete the so called rows.
Because you are sending JSON as the post data, you will have to access the raw post data on the PHP side. This can be done like so:
$obj = json_decode($HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA);
foreach($obj->list as $item)
{
// delete from mytable
$wpdb->query(
$wpdb->prepare("DELETE FROM mytable WHERE id = %d", $item)
);
}
If you want the data in a $_POST variable, then you will have to change your ajax request data to something like:
$.ajax({
....
data: { list : JSON.stringify(c) },
....
Now, on the PHP side it is present in $_POST['list']. So you can do:
$obj = json_decode($_POST['list']);
foreach($obj->list as $item)
{
// delete from mytable
$wpdb->query(
$wpdb->prepare("DELETE FROM mytable WHERE id = %d", $item)
);
}
In your server side php since you're not calling the get_header() function, you have to add this piece of code manually require_once('../../../wp-load.php'); and you can now call global $wpdb; safely and all wp functions. Please also take note that you're php file must be inside your theme together with your functions.php and other core files. Do not put it into another directory inside your theme

I have some results from a fetch.php using json and I successfully brought all results to my bootstrap modal HTML screen.
When the Modal is being shown, I would like to run a MYSQL query using a value coming from the same json I used for the modal, however I can't put this value into a PHP variable to run the SQL query.
How can I get this?
I am trying to bring the same value I input into the HTML textbox (modal), but it is not working. I also tried to use the value from json '$('#PCR').val(data.PCRNo);)', but nothing happen.
This is the script to collect information from database using fetch.php file:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#table').on('click', '.fetch_data', function(){
var pcr_number = $(this).attr('id');
$.ajax({
url:'fetch.php',
method:'post',
data:{pcr_number:pcr_number},
dataType:"json",
success:function(data){
$('#PCR').val(data.PCRNo);
$('#PCC').val(data.PCC);
$('#PCR_Creation').val(data.Creation_Date);
$('#PCR_Status').val(data.Stage);
$('#Required_Completion').val(data.Required_Completion);
}
});
});
});
</script>
This is the PHP code
<?php
//trying to get the value I have included on #PCR (textbox) which has ID='PCR' and name ='PCR' **
$PCR= $_POST['PCR'];
//running now the code to check if the database has the value and return the desired response to be shown **
$sql1 = mysqli_query($dbConnected,"SELECT * FROM change_management.tPCN");
while ($row1 = mysqli_fetch_array($sql1)) {
if ($row1['PCRNo']==$PCR){
echo $row1['PCNNo'];
echo "<br/>";
}else{
}
}
?>
I would like include value from this val(data.PCRNo) json return into the $PCR variable, so the MYSQL query is going to work
There are a number of quite basic logical issues with your code which are preventing it from working.
1) data: { pcr_number: pcr_number}- the name pcr_number doesn't match the value PCR which the server is searching for using $_POST['PCR'];. The names must match up. When making an AJAX request, the name you gave to the form field in the HTML does not matter (unless you use .serialize()) because you are specifying new names in the data parameter.
2) Your SQL query doesn't make sense. You seem to be wanting to read a single row relating to a PCR number, yet your query makes no usage of the input PCR value to try and restrict the results to that row. You need to use a SQL WHERE clause to get it to select only the row with that ID, otherwise you'll fetch all the rows and won't know which one is correct. (Fetching them all and then using an if in a PHP loop to check the correct one is very inefficient.) I wrote you a version which uses the WHERE clause properly, and passes the PCR value to the query securely using prepared statements and parameters (to project against SQL injection attacks).
3) Your output from the PHP also makes no sense. You've told jQuery (via dataType: "json" to expect a JSON response, and then your code inside the "success" function is based on the assumption you'll receive a single object containing all the fields from the table. But echo $row1['PCNNo']; echo "<br/>"; only outputs one field, and it outputs it with HTML next to it. This is not JSON, it's not even close to being JSON. You need to output the whole row, and then use json_encode() function to turn the object into a JSON string which jQuery can parse when it receives it.
Here's a version of the code containing all the above changes:
JavaScript:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#table').on('click', '.fetch_data', function(){
$.ajax({
url: 'fetch.php',
method: 'post',
data: { pcr: $(this).attr('id'); },
dataType: "json",
success: function(data){
$('#PCR').val(data.PCRNo);
$('#PCC').val(data.PCC);
$('#PCR_Creation').val(data.Creation_Date);
$('#PCR_Status').val(data.Stage);
$('#Required_Completion').val(data.Required_Completion);
}
});
});
});
PHP:
<?php
$PCR = $_POST['pcr'];
$stmt = $dbConnected->prepare("SELECT * FROM change_management.tPCN WHERE PCRNo = ?");
$stmt->bind_param('s', $PCR);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
//an "if" here will cause a single row to be read
if ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$output = $row;
}
else
{
$output = new StdClass();
}
$stmt->free_result();
$stmt->close();
//output the result
echo json_encode($output);
?>
N.B. I would potentially suggest studying some tutorials on this kind of subject, since this is a fairly standard use case for AJAX/JSON, and you should be able to find samples which would improve your understanding of all the different parts.
P.S. Currently the PHP code above will return an empty object if there is no matching row in the database. However, this is probably an error condition (and will cause your JavaScript code to crash due to trying to read nonexistent properties), so you should consider how you want to handle such an error and what response to return (e.g. 400, or 404, and a suitable message).
You need to first return json from php by using json_encode.
Inside this loop
while ($row1 = mysqli_fetch_array($sql1)) {
$data = array('PCRNo' => 'itsvalue', 'PCC' => 'itsvalue', 'Creation_Date' => 'itsvalue')
}
print json_encode($data)
store all the data in an associative array and then convert it into json using json_encode and return the json.
Use json data in you ajax file
$.ajax({
url:'fetch.php',
method:'post',
data:{pcr_number:pcr_number},
dataType:"json",
success:function(data){
var data = JSON.parse(data);
$('#PCR').val(data.PCRNo);
$('#PCC').val(data.PCC);
$('#PCR_Creation').val(data.Creation_Date);
$('#PCR_Status').val(data.Stage);
$('#Required_Completion').val(data.Required_Completion);
}
});
Below is the changed script to store different values in $PCR variable
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var i = 1;
$('#table').on('click', '.fetch_data', function(){
if(i == 1) {
var pcr_number = $(this).attr('id');
} else {
var pcr_number = $('#PCR').val();
}
$.ajax({
url:'fetch.php',
method:'post',
data:{pcr_number:pcr_number},
dataType:"json",
success:function(data){
$('#PCR').val(data.PCRNo);
$('#PCC').val(data.PCC);
$('#PCR_Creation').val(data.Creation_Date);
$('#PCR_Status').val(data.Stage);
$('#Required_Completion').val(data.Required_Completion);
i++;
}
});
});
});
</script>
So I've followed all your advice about making an jQuery or Javascript AJAX request to a php file on a server.
The problem I'm running in to is that my response is this
Fatal error: Array callback has to contain indices 0 and 1 in
So here is my jQuery
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".ex .select").click(function(){
$("body").data("id", $(this).parent().next().text());
Those lines serve to capture a variable and save it as data on the body element, so I can use it later.
But I want to send that same variable to PHP file, to add to a complex API request - eventually to return the results, create $_SESSION variables and so forth
var pageId = {
id: $("body").data("id"),
};
But let's avoid that as a problem and just make my array simple like
var pageId = {
id: "12345",
};
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'test.php',
data: pageId,
datatype: 'json',
cache: false,
success: function (data, status) {
alert("Data: " + data + "\nStatus: " + status);
}
});
});
});
And for now at least I was hoping to keep my PHP file simple for testing my grasp of the concepts here
<?php
$id = $_GET('id');
echo json_encode($id);
?>
I'm expecting the response
Data: 12345
Status: Success
But I get the Error Message above.
You need to change $_GET('id') to $_GET['id']
and in order to send status, you need to add status to an array just like below and try to parse JSON on your response.
<?php
$id = $_GET['id'];
$result = array("id"=>$id, "Status"=>"Success");
echo json_encode($result);
?>
And access in jquery using . like if you use data variable in success then
success:function(data){
alert(data.Status);
}
change $id = $_GET('id'); to $id = $_GET['id'];
because $_GET, not a function it's an array type element.
I want to access a javascript variable inside a php query
function myFunction2(){
Total=parseInt(point2)
<?php
$con->query("UPDATE eventlist SET P2 = $this.Total WHERE Eid=$PID");
?>
}
I want the query to set p2=value of total
I understand that php is a serverside script and I cant do this like this. What is an alternative to this.?
EDIT
ok i got this on the JS side
function myFunction2(){
var Total = parseInt(point1)+parseInt(point2);
$.ajax({ url: 'ajax.php',
data: {'total' : Total},
type: 'post',
dataType:'json',
success: function(output) {
alert(output);
},
error: function(request, status, error){
alert("Error");
}
and if i put
echo $_POST['total']
in ajax.php i get an alert with the value passed. So i think the value is being passed properly.
But what i need to do is a Mysql Query.
$con->query("UPDATE eventlist SET P2 = $_POST['total']; WHERE Eid=1");
Something like this. How do i do this
Try send javascript value to another php page which contain your query
function myFunction () {
var param = "value";
$.post('query.php', { postvalue: param}, function(data) {
//do what you want with returned data
//postvalue should be the name of post parameter in your query page
})
}
Change your PHP in this way:
$total = $_POST['total'];
$con->query("UPDATE eventlist SET P2 = $total WHERE Eid=1");
I am trying to pass a JSON object that looks similar to this:
{"service": "AAS1", "sizeTypes":[{"id":"20HU", "value":"1.0"},{"id":"40FB","2.5"}]}
Just a note: In the sizeTypes, there are a total of about 58 items in the array.
When the user clicks the submit button, I need to be able to send the object to a PHP script to run an UPDATE query. Here is the javascript that should be sending the JSON to the PHP script:
$('#addNewSubmit').click(function()
{
var payload = {
name: $('#addservice').val();
sizeTypes: []
};
$('input.size_types[type=text]').each(function(){
payload.sizeTypes.push({
id: $(this).attr('id'),
value: $(this).val()
});
});
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'api/editService.php',
data: {service: payload},
dataType: 'json',
success: function(msh){
console.log('success');
},
error: function(msg){
console.log('fail');
}
});
});
Using the above click function, I am trying to send the object over to php script below, which is in api/editService.php:
<?php
if(isset($_POST['service']))
{
$json = json_decode($_POST['service'], true);
echo $json["service"]["name"] . "<br />";
foreach ($json["service"]["sizeTypes"] as $key => $value){
echo $value["value"] . "<br />";
}
}
else
{
echo "Nooooooob";
}
?>
I do not have the UPDATE query in place yet because I am not even sure if I am passing the JSON correctly. In the javascript click function, you see the SUCCESS and ERROR functions. All I am producing is the ERROR function in Chrome's console.
I am not sure where the error lies, in the JavaScript or the PHP.
Why can I only produce the error function in the AJAX post?
Edit
I removed the dataType in the ajax call, and added JSON.stringify to data:
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'api/editService.php',
data: {servce: JSON.stringify(payload)},
success: function(msg){
console.log('success');
},
error: function(msg){
console.log('fail'), msg);
}
});
In the PHP script, I tried this:
if(isset($_POST['service'))
{
$json = json_decode($_POST['service'], true);
foreach ($json["service"]["sizeTypes"] as $key => $value){
$insert = mysqli_query($dbc, "INSERT INTO table (COLUMN, COLUMN, COLUMN) VALUES (".$json["service"] . ", " . "$value["id"] . ", " . $value["value"]")");
}
}
else
{
echo "noooooob";
}
With this update, I am able to get the success message to fire, but that's pretty much it. I cannot get the query to run.
without seeing the error, I suspect the error is because ajax is expecting json (dataType: 'json',) but you are echoing html in your php
Try to change
error: function(msg){
console.log('fail');
}
to
error: function(msg){
console.log(msg);
}
There might be some php error or syntax issue and you should be able to see it there.
Also try to debug your php script step by step by adding something like
echo "still works";die;
on the beginning of php script and moving it down till it'll cause error, then you'll know where the error is.
Also if you're expecting JSON (and you are - dataType: 'json' in js , don't echo any HTML in your php.
As you are sending an object in your service key, you probably have a multi-dimensional array in $_POST['service'].
If you want to send a string, you should convert the object to json:
data: {service: JSON.stringify(payload)},
Now you can decode it like you are doing in php.
Also note that you can only send json back from php if you set the dataType to json. Anything other than valid json will have you end up in the error handler.
Example how to handle a JSON response from editService.php. Typically, the editService.php script will be the worker and will handle whatever it is you need done. It will (typically) send a simple response back to the success method (consider updating your $.ajax to use the latest methods, eg. $.done, etc). From there you handle the responses appropriately.
$.ajax({
method: 'POST',
url: '/api/editService.php',
data: { service: payload },
dataType: 'json'
})
.done(function(msh) {
if (msh.success) {
console.log('success');
}
else {
console.log('failed');
}
})
.fail(function(msg) {
console.log('fail');
});
Example /editService.php and how to work with JSON via $.ajax
<?php
$response = [];
if ( isset($_POST['service']) ) {
// do your stuff; DO NOT output (echo) anything here, this is simply logic
// ... do some more stuff
// if everything has satisfied, send response back
$response['success'] = true;
// else, if this logic fails, send that response back
$response['success'] = false;
}
else {
// initial condition failed
$response['success'] = false;
}
echo json_encode($response);
I have a modal that will display when the user clicks a delete button. Once they hit the delete button I am using AJAX to subimit the form. Eveything works fine, but it is not display my success message which is set in PHP.
Here is my AJAX code:
function deleteUser(){
var id = <?php echo $userdetails['id'] ?>;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'admin_user.php?id=' + id,
data: $('form.adminUser').serialize(),
error: function(e){
alert(e);
},
success: function () {
// This is empty because i don't know what to put here.
}
});
}
Here is the PHP code:
if ($deletion_count = deleteUsers($deletions)) {
$successes[] = lang("ACCOUNT_DELETIONS_SUCCESSFUL", array($deletion_count));
} else {
$errors[] = lang("SQL_ERROR");
}
And then I call it like this:
<div class="col-lg-12" id="resultBlock">
<?php echo resultBlock($errors,$successes); ?>
</div>
When I use AJAX it does not display the message. This works fine on other pages that does not require AJAX to submit the form.
I think you are getting confused with how AJAX works, the PHP script you call will not directly output to the page, consider the below simplified lifecycle of an AJAX request:
Main Page -> Submit Form -> Put form data into array
|
--> Send array to a script to be processed on the server
|
|----> Callback from the server script to modify DOM (or whatever you want to do)
There are many callbacks, but here lets discuss success and error
If your PHP script was not found on the server or there was any other internal error, an error callback is returned, else a success callback is fired, in jQuery you can specify a data array to be received in your callback - this contains any data echoed from your PHP script.
In your case, you should amend your PHP file to echo your arrays, this means that if a successful request is made, the $successes or $errors array is echoed back to the data parameter of your AJAX call
if ($deletion_count = deleteUsers($deletions)) {
$successes[] = lang("ACCOUNT_DELETIONS_SUCCESSFUL", array($deletion_count));
echo $successes;
} else {
$errors[] = lang("SQL_ERROR");
echo $errors;
}
You can then test you received an object by logging it to the console:
success: function(data) {
console.log(data);
}
Well, it's quite not clear what does work and what does not work, but two things are bothering me : the function for success in Ajax is empty and you have a header function making a refresh in case of success. Have you tried removing the header function ?
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
In case of success this would alert the data that is echoed on the php page. That's how it works.
I'm using this a lot when I'm using $.post
Your header will not do anything. You'll have to show the data on the Java script side, maybe with alert, and then afterwards redirect the user to where you want in javascript.
you need put some var in success function
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
then, when you read var "data" u can do anything with the text
Here is what I changed the PHP to:
if ($deletion_count = deleteUsers($deletions)) {
$successes[] = lang("ACCOUNT_DELETIONS_SUCCESSFUL", array($deletion_count));
echo resultBlock($errors,$successes);
} else {
$errors[] = lang("SQL_ERROR");
echo resultBlock($errors,$successes);
}
And the I changed the AJAX to this:
function deleteUser(){
var id = <?php echo $userdetails['id'] ?>;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'admin_user.php?id=' + id,
data: $('form.adminUser').serialize(),
error: function(e){
alert(e);
},
success: function (data) {
result = $(data).find("#success");
$('#resultBlock').html(result);
}
});
}
Because data was loading all html I had to find exactly what I was looking for out of the HTMl so that is why I did .find.
