Multiple database insertion though AJAX - javascript

I am trying to insert multiple records through JS function.JS function calls action of another YII controller that performs insertion.
I am reading the data from a MySql table performing some actions on data and saving the changed data to an array post_data. Later I am converting this array to url format and passing as parameter to JS function. This function has ajax to call another controller to perform insertion.
I am trying to insert to 2 tables. 1st contact_details table is inserted and then engineer table is inserted, so I want this ajax call to run in serial way. i.e, I want next insertion to start only after the previous insertion is complete.
My code is:
<script>
function call_migration_api(post_data)
{
//console.log( 'post data in js func = '+post_data);
//var db_data = post_data.serialize();//tried this, but not working.
var db_data = post_data;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url:"http://localhost/amica_migration/rapport/chs/Migrationapi/createengineer",
data: db_data,
success: function(server_response)
{
console.log(server_response)
}//end of success
});//end of $.ajax
}//end of function.
</script>
<?php
//reading all values in $post_data array.
foreach ( $post_data as $key => $value)
{
$post_items[] = $key . '=' . $value;
}
$post_string = implode ('&', $post_items);
echo "<script>call_migration_api('$post_string');</script>";// Call to AJAX function.
?>
Migration API code:
<?php
public function actionCreateEngineer()
{
$engineer_model=new Engineer();
$contactdetails_model=new ContactDetails();
//****** RETRIVING CONTACT DETAILS ***********
$contactdetails_model->address_line_1= $_POST['address_line_1'];
$contactdetails_model->town= $_POST['town'];
$contactdetails_model->postcode_s= $_POST['postcode_s'];
$contactdetails_model->postcode_e= $_POST['postcode_e'];
$contactdetails_model->telephone= $_POST['telephone'];
$contactdetails_model->email= $_POST['email'];
//********** SAVING CONTACT ***************
if($contactdetails_model->save())
{
echo "<br>Contact Model Saved";
$engineer_model->contact_details_id=$contactdetails_model->id;
$engineer_model->delivery_contact_details_id=$contactdetails_model->id;
//****** RETRIVING ENGINEER DETAILS ***********
$engineer_model->first_name=$_POST['first_name'];
$engineer_model->last_name=$_POST['last_name'];
$engineer_model->active=$_POST['active'];
$engineer_model->id=$_POST['engg_id'];
//****** SAVING ENGINEER DETAILS ***********
if($engineer_model->save())
{
echo "<br>Engineer saved";
}
else
{
echo "<br>Engineer not saved******** ENGG ERROR = ";
print_r($engineer_model->getErrors());
}
}//end of if contact save.
else
{
echo "<br>Contacts NOT SAVED ///////// CONTACT ERROR = ";
print_r($contactdetails_model->getErrors());
}
}//end of create engineer.
?>

How to change files so that when you click on the "load more" button the browser dynamically adds the following entries from the database in the list
I think 2 hours and I can not understand.
Help.(
I understand your confusion, I believe you're wondering why your php code in index.php doesn't work properly after you call loadMore.php using ajax.
There's one distinction you need to understand to be capable of developing for the web. The difference between server-side and client-side code.
PHP is a server-side programming language, which means that it only executes on the server. Your server returns html, or json, or text, or anything to the browser and once the response arrives at the browser, you can forget about php code.
Javascript on the other hand is a client side programming language (at least in your case) It executes on the browser.
You basically have two options:
To send back some json and loop over it using jQuery, which is the preferable choice, but I fear it requires more work.
Send back html and append it to your page, first create a file called async.php
<?php
include('pdo.php');
include('item.php');
include('loadMore.php');
?>
<?php foreach ($items as $item): ?>
<div class="single-item" data-id="<?= $item->id ?>">
<?= $item->show() ?>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
in your js add to your success callback
$.ajax({
url: url,
data: data,
type: 'get',
success: function (res) {
$('#container').append(res);
},
error: function (XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
//
}
});
don't forget var url = "async.php";
First you need to attach the buttons onclick="" attribute with the ajax-method.
<button ... onclick="getMoreItems">...</button>
Second, your loadmore.php need to require_once the files it depends on:
require_once('pdo.php');
require_once('item.php');
Third, separate your logic for querying the database to a function in the pdo.php file you can call with the limits as parameters, i.e.
function getData($offset = 0, $limit = 10){
//logic
}
You should also always try to use require_once or include_once to be sure files aren't loaded several times.
Now you can call the function getData(...) from index.php before the container div to load up the initial data, remove the include to loadmore.php from index.php, and in loadmore.php write the logic to use the parameters sent from the webpage to get the next chunk of data.
The data:... in your ajax needs to pass along the "page" it wants to get, perhaps simply a counter as to how many times you have loaded more. In the loadmore.php script you then just multiply the page by the limit to get the offset.
Return the data as JSON to the ajax, parse the JSON so you can build a new div for each item, then add each div to the container-div using javascript.
Im not going in detail on all topics here, but you at least will know what tutorials to search for on google :)

Populating an array through jquery AJAX in php

I have a function in a compare.php that takes a parameter $data and uses that data to find certain things from web and extracts data and returns an array.
function populateTableA($data);
So to fill array I do this
$arrayTableA = populateTableA($name);
now this array is then used to iterate tables..
<table id="tableA">
<input type="text" name="search"/><input type="submit"/>
<?php foreach($arrayTableA as $row) { ?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $row['name']?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['place']?></td>
</tr>
</table>
Now what I want to do is to enter some data on input and then through jquery ajax
function populateTableA($data);
should be called and $array should be refilled with new contents and then populated on tableA without refreshing the page.
I wrote this jquery but no results.
$(document).on('submit',function(e) {
e.preventDefault(); // Add it here
$.ajax({ url: 'compare.php',
var name = ('search').val();
data: {action: 'populateTableA(name)'},
type: 'post',
success: function(output) {
$array = output;
}
});
});
I have been doing web scraping and the above was to understand how to implement that strategy... original function in my php file is below
function homeshoppingExtractor($homeshoppingSearch)
{
$homeshoppinghtml = file_get_contents('https://homeshopping.pk/search.php?category%5B%5D=&search_query='.$homeshoppingSearch);
$homeshoppingDoc = new DOMDocument();
libxml_use_internal_errors(TRUE);
if(!empty($homeshoppinghtml)){
$homeshoppingDoc->loadHTML($homeshoppinghtml);
libxml_clear_errors();
$homeshoppingXPath = new DOMXPath($homeshoppingDoc);
//HomeShopping
$hsrow = $homeshoppingXPath->query('//a[#class=""]');
$hsrow2 = $homeshoppingXPath->query('//a[#class="price"]');
$hsrow3 = $homeshoppingXPath->query('(//a[#class="price"])//#href');
$hsrow4 = $homeshoppingXPath->query('(//img[#class="img-responsive imgcent"])//#src');
//HomeShopping
if($hsrow->length > 0){
$rowarray = array();
foreach($hsrow as $row){
$rowarray[]= $row->nodeValue;
// echo $row->nodeValue . "<br/>";
}
}
if($hsrow2->length > 0){
$row2array = array();
foreach($hsrow2 as $row2){
$row2array[]=$row2->nodeValue;
// echo $row2->nodeValue . "<br/>";
}
}
if($hsrow3->length > 0){
$row3array = array();
foreach($hsrow3 as $row3){
$row3array[]=$row3->nodeValue;
//echo $row3->nodeValue . "<br/>";
}
}
if($hsrow4->length > 0){
$row4array = array();
foreach($hsrow4 as $row4){
$row4array[]=$row4->nodeValue;
//echo $row3->nodeValue . "<br/>";
}
}
$hschecker = count($rowarray);
if($hschecker != 0) {
$homeshopping = array();
for($i=0; $i < count($rowarray); $i++){
$homeshopping[$i] = [
'name'=>$rowarray[$i],
'price'=>$row2array[$i],
'link'=>$row3array[$i],
'image'=>$row4array[$i]
];
}
}
else{
echo "no result found at homeshopping";
}
}
return $homeshopping;
}
As mentioned in the comments PHP is a server side language so you will be unable to run your PHP function from javascript.
However if you want to update tableA (without refreshing the whole page) you could create a new PHP page that will only create tableA and nothing else. Then you could use this ajax call (or something similar) -
$(document).on('submit','#formReviews',function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: 'getTableA.php', //or whatever you choose to call your new page
data: {
name: $('search').val()
},
type: 'post',
success: function(output) {
$('#tableA').replaceWith(output); //replace "tableA" with the id of the table
},
error: function() {
//report that an error occurred
}
});
});
Hi You are doing it in wrong way.You must change your response to html table and overwrite older one.
success: function(output) {
$("#tableA").html(output);
}
});
In your ajax page create a table with your result array
You are in a very wrong direction my friend.
First of all there are some syntax error in your JS code.
So use JavaScript Debugging
to find where you went wrong.
After that Basic PHP with AJAX
to get a reference how ajax and PHP work together
Then at your code
Create a PHP file where you have to print the table part which you want to refresh.
Write an AJAX which will hit that PHP file and get the table structure from the server. So all the processing of data will be done by server AJAX is only used for request for the data and get the response from the server.
Put the result in your html code using JS.
Hope this will help

Getting a value from Javascript in PHP [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
What is the difference between client-side and server-side programming?
(3 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I am not very experienced in web programming and am attempting to run a script which updates my database.
<script>
function myFunction() {
var texts = document.getElementById("content").textContent;
alert(texts)
<?php
include_once 'accounts/config.php';
$text = ...;
$tbl_name='enemies'; // Table name
$query = "UPDATE enemies SET text=('$text') WHERE id=1";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
?>
}
</script>
I have no idea what to put in the $text section as shown with $text = ...; in order to get the variable texts from above.
EDIT
I have updated my code but the function does not seem to be accessing the PHP file. I am using a button to call the function and I have also tested it so i know the function is being called. My file is called update.php and is in the same directory as this file.
<button onclick="myFunction()">Click This</button>
<script>
function myFunction() {
var texts = document.getElementById("content").textContent;
$.ajax({
url: "update.php",
type: "POST",
data: {texts:texts},
success: function(response){
}
});
}
</script>
you can post your $texts value to other php page using ajax and get the variable on php page using $_POST['texts'] and place update query there and enjoy....
function myFunction() {
var texts = document.getElementById("content").textContent;
$.ajax({
url: 'update.php',
type: "POST",
data: {texts:texts},
success: function(response)
{
}
});
And your php file will be named as update.php
<?php
include_once 'accounts/config.php';
$text =$_POST['texts'];
$tbl_name='enemies'; // Table name
$query = "UPDATE `enemies` SET `text`='".$text."' WHERE `id`=1";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
?>
PHP runs on the server and then generates output which is then returned to the client side. You can't have a JavaScript function make a call to inlined PHP since the PHP runs before the JavaScript is ever delivered to the client side.
Instead, what you'd need to do is have your function make an AJAX request to a server-side PHP script that then extracts the data from the request body and then stores it in the database.
PHP: "/yourPhpScript.php"
<?php
include_once 'accounts/config.php';
$text = $_POST['data'];
$tbl_name='enemies'; // Table name
$query = "UPDATE enemies SET text='".$text.'" WHERE id=1";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
?>
JavaScript:
function myFunction() {
var texts = document.getElementById("content").textContent;
alert(texts);
// append data as a query string
var params = 'data='+texts;
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
// when server responds, output any response, if applicable
if(http.readyState == 4 && http.status == 200) {
alert(http.responseText);
}
}
// replace with the filename of your PHP script that will do the update.
var url = '/yourPhpScript.php';
xmlhttp.open("POST", url, true);
xmlhttp.send(params);
}
A word of caution: This is not a safe, production-friendly way of updating data in your database. This code is open to SQL injection attacks, which is outside the scope of your question. Please see Bobby Tables: A guide to preventing SQL injection if you are writing code that will go into production.
You are wrong in approach
You should use ajax to post 'texts' value to your php script
https://api.jquery.com/jquery.post/ and create separate php file where you will get data from ajax post and update DB
javascript:
<script>
function myFunction() {
var texts = document.getElementById("content").textContent;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "update.php",
data: "texsts=" + texts,
success: success
});
}
</script>
update.php
<?php
include_once 'accounts/config.php';
$text = $_POST['texts'];
$tbl_name='enemies'; // Table name
$query = "UPDATE enemies SET text=('$text') WHERE id=1";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
?>
i will use PDO if i was you, what you do mysql_query are outdated, if you use my framework https://github.com/parisnakitakejser/PinkCowFramework you can do the following code.
<?php
include('config.php');
$text = $_POST['text'];
$query = PinkCow\Database::prepare("UPDATE enemies SET text = :text WHERE id = 1");
$bindparam = array(
array('text', $text, 'str')
);
PinkCow\Database::exec($query,$bindparam);
$jsonArray = array(
'status' => 200
);
echo json_encode($jsonArray);
?>
place this code in jsonUpdateEnemies.php file and call it width jQuery
<script>
function myFunction(yourText) {
$.post( 'jsonUpdateEnemies.php', {
'text' : yourText
}, function(data)
{
alert('Data updated');
},'json');
}
</script>
its a little more complex then you ask about, but its how i will resolved your problem, :)

Ajax call posting duplicates in DB

I am using to Fullcalendar jquery with php for event management. I using ajax call for adding events. The call works fine for the first event entry after refresh. But for the following event entries duplicate events are created for each entry. Not sure what causing this.
This is the error:
This is the jquery call:
Jquery
$('#evesav').bind('click',function(){
$('#evesav').attr('disabled','disabled');
var title = $('#evename').val();
var edes = $('#evedes').val();
var everegion = $('#everegion').val();
var eveserv = $('#eveserv').val();
$.ajax({
url: 'add_events.php',
data: 'title='+ title+'&start='+ start +'&end='+ end +'&edes='+ edes +'&everegion='+ everegion +'&eveserv='+ eveserv,
type: "POST",
success: function(json) {
$('#myModal').modal('hide');
$('#alertcon').html(json);
$('#alert').modal('show');
$('#evename').val("");
$('#evedes').val("");
$('#evesav').removeAttr('disabled');
$('#calendar').fullCalendar( 'refetchEvents' );
}
});
$('#calendar').fullCalendar( 'rerenderEvents' );
});
This is the PHP Code:
PHP
<?php

$edes = $_POST['edes'];
$region = $_POST['everegion'];
$server = $_POST['eveserv'];

}
else {
echo "Please Fill the data";
}
?>
Some one please help me with this.
I'd give each event addition form a control, for instance a dynamic GUID, which then can be used to save to DB. This way you have a GUID to work with in dealing with CalDAV protocol, if you ever choose to do as such with your calendar, as well as have a way to make certain nothing is duplicated by chance in your database.
Now, do keep in mind this is simply a patch, not a fix. Therefore, you'll do yourself a lot of good to find a way to stop the multiple attempts to add an event to your DB. Regardless of your success in finding your bug, using a control mechanism or unique identifier is a good idea.

Codeigniter, jQuery and Ajax - Preventing Page Refresh on Displaying New Database Content Dynamically

I'm trying to achieve something relatively straightforward - allow users to make comments on a view page, update the database and display the new content dynamically on the page without the whole page refreshing.
My efforts so far have been unsuccessful - there may be several issues with what I'm doing!
On the view page I have tried this (to send 2 variables to a CI controller function):
<script type="text/javascript">
function ajax(id, user_id) {
jQuery('#dynamicdiv').load('/controller/function/' + id + '/' + user_id);
}
</script>
<div id='dynamicdiv'>
</div>
I have a textarea to collect the user comment, in the controller function should I be able to call this as post data in order to write it to the database? If so, I would still need to send two other variables ($id and $user_id) to the ajax function.
<?php $atts = array (
'class' => "alignright button",
'onClick' => "ajax('$id,$user_id')",
); ?>
<?php echo anchor(current_url(), 'Post my Comment', $atts); ?>
and in the controller, which involves a different function (view) than the page I want the user to stay on:
$data = $this->model->database_query($id, $user_id);
echo $data; // from reading other posts it seems I would process the data within this function, to have it displayed on the page the user is viewing?
Any help appreciated!
Don't forget to block you default anchor behaviour (for example by adding return false; to your onclick parameter).
<?php $atts = array (
'class' => "alignright button",
'onClick' => "ajax('$id,$user_id'); return false;",
); ?>
you can make the ajax request as follows:
function ajax(id, user_id) {
$.ajax({
url: base_url + controller_name + '/' + action_name,
type: 'GET',
data: { id: id, user_id: user_id },
dataType: 'json',
success: function (data) {
// append the returned result to your #dynamicdiv
}
});
}
and in the controller:
$id = $this->input->get('id');
$user_id = $this->input->get('user_id');
$data = $this->model->database_query($id, $user_id);
echo json_encode($data);
Hope this helps
