JavaScript - Problems With Ajax Request (jquery)

I'm using jquery right now but I sort of understand what the problem is. I'm making a file manager and when you click on an li tag it will do some action depending on if it's a file type or a folder type. There are 3 important files you should know about.

1. filemanager.php (Where the file managing takes place. Starts by including filemanager_getfile.php and including filemanager.js in the head).

2. filemanager_getfile.php (Information that receives information from the ajax request [the directory to be read] and prints the new file list in <li> tags)

3. filemanager.js (Jquery that processes li clicks)

The problem is, when you click on a folder (and it loads the new information from the ajax request) the jquery doesn't check the new li tags when clicked (I'm guessing when you first link the javascript file it has to compile all of the current li information?).

Try it for yourself-

Instruction (if it's not already obvious):

-Clicking a file selects if. If files are selected and you click the arrow in the file options it will transfer it (not really, but it will later).

-Clicking a folder will send an ajax request with the new directory information to be checked and return the html

-Clicking the '?' in the file options will display the pages html (I implemented it to debug).

I have tried linking the js page every time I include the new directory information, but the js stacks on each other. So if I click on 3 folders and hit the '?' button it will display the page html 3 times. And if I select the index.php li and click transfer, it will "transfer" 3 times.

filemanager.php
Code:

<div id="goldenSub">
        <div class="title">Golden Subdomain</div>
        <div class="files" id="goldenSubFiles">
            <?
                include("filemanager_getfiles.php");
            ?>
        </div>
        <div id="history" visited="goldensub/"></div>;

filemanager.js
Code:

        var type = $(this).attr("type");
        //This is a folder
        if(type == "folder")
        {
            //Path to new directory
            var newPath = $(this).attr("title");
            //Ajax request to filemanager_getfiles.php
            $("#goldenSubFiles").load("filemanager_getfiles.php", { dir: newPath }, function(data){
                //Update log
                newLog("Directory changed to <i><b>"+newPath+"</b></i>");
            });
        }
        //This is a file
        else
        {
            if($(this).hasClass("selected"))
            {
                //It's already selected - deselect it.
                $(this).removeClass("selected");

    });

so i have this "class" defined in a javascript file, "a.cross-link". This enables the ability for users to navigate the webpage in a slider format. it works fine if I directly place the required html code:



Code:

<a class="cross-link" href="#3" title="Go to Page 2">View Results</a>

but if i have php print out that line for me, it doesn't work:


PHP Code:
echo "<a class= \"cross-link\" href=\"#3\" title=\"Go to Page 3\">$name</a>";( 


Where $name is some variable)

Note: the php code is just your average sql stuff. here is an interesting observation i've made:

if i "hardcode" this this into the html: <a class="cross-link" href="#3" title="Go to Page 3">View Results</a>
and then i go to generate the sourcecode, this is what appears (this works): <A class=cross-link title="Go to Page 3" href="#3" jQuery1283131847233="30">View Results</A>

but if i have the html made by a php echo statement, it just stays the same - i dont get a jQuery1283131847233="30" generated in the sourcecode.

i'm sorry i'm having difficulty describing the problem. i'm new to jquery and ajax stuff. to me, it seems like the "cross-link" class i have defined in the javascript isn't being applied to correctly. i have no idea. can you invoke javascript from a php echo statement that is formatted to produce html code?

here is another thing i believe is true: when the page loads, the javascript loads. the users, through the use of ajax, submitts a sql querey and navigates, using a jquery slider, to another div (where i want the user to go after selecting a resulting link from the sql query). so the javascript is going to execute before the list of results is produced. do I need to rerun the javascript each time new php produced sql data is populated in a div? if so, how?

i dont know what more information you may need, so please ask. Thanks.

I have a page that has a simple AJAX call that works fine in firefox and chrome but not in ie. In IE my loading image shows up but the actual sourceURL never loads or shows. Below is my html and javascript code.
Can anyone help me with this?


<div id="design_strap" style="display:none">
<a href="javascript:loadContent('#content', 'strap.html');">Link</a>
<div id="content"></div>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

$.ajaxSetup ({
// Disable caching of AJAX responses
cache: false
});

function loadContent(elementSelector, sourceUrl) {
$(""+elementSelector+"").html('<p><img src="images/loading.gif" width="150" height="150" /></p>');
$(""+elementSelector+"").load(""+sourceUrl+"");
//$("content").height(350);
}
</script>

I'm updating a database w/o "reloading" the page using jquery & ajax. Everything works fine, but I need to display an error (in php - mysql_error()) in the error callback function. I also don't think that the success/error callbacks are working as even when I changed the password in to the mysql server in the php file, I got the success message :S Can any1 help me out?

this is the php script

Code:

<?php

/*$fp = fopen('data.txt', 'a+');
fwrite($fp, 'ok');
fclose($fp);*/

$sections = $_REQUEST['sections'];
$fontColor = $_REQUEST['fontColor'];
$bgcolor = $_REQUEST['bgcolor'];
$font = $_REQUEST['font'];
$fontSize = $_REQUEST['fontSize'];
$lineHeight = $_REQUEST['lineHeight'];
$letterSpacing = $_REQUEST['letterSpacing'];
$fontStyle = $_REQUEST['fontStyle'];
//$tekst = $_REQUEST['tekst']

$connect = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "password") or die ("Unable to connect to the database");
mysql_select_db("ipsum") or die ("doesnt exist: " . mysql_error());

$update = "INSERT INTO con (Sections, Fontcolor, BackgroundColor, Font, FontSize, LineHeight, LetterSpacing, FontStyle) VALUES ('".$sections."', '".$fontColor."', '".$bgcolor."', '".$font."', '".$fontSize."', '".$lineHeight."', '".$letterSpacing."', '".$fontStyle."')";



// the content of 'data.txt' is now 123 and not 23!


mysql_query($update) or die ("unable to update: " . mysql_error());

mysql_close($connect);


?>

and this is what I currently have for the error

Code:

error: (function (){$('#errorMessage').fadeIn("slow").delay(1000).fadeOut(2000);}),

but that needs to change...

I want to pass the "divId' function so that i can grab functions dynamically into the server where "success" is. this possible? I know the current setup is not (because " d.divId " isn't a variable)

Code:

function run(times,divId)
{
	$(function() 
	{
		var client_id = $('#client_id').attr('value');
		$.ajax(
		{
			url:'http://urlhere.com',
			data:{c:client_id},
			timeout:99999999999999,
			dataType:'jsonp',
			jsonp:'callback',
			jsonpCallback:'jsonpCallback',
			error:function()
			{
				if (times==1)
				{
					run(2);
				}
				else
				{
					$('#'+divId).html('Error') 
				}
			},
			success:function(d)
			{
				$('#'+divId).html('$'+d.divId);
			}
		});
}

Hey guys

I should preface this by saying that this is not for my own site, or my own code; a friend has gone on holiday and needed this project fixing while he was away. Unfortunately my experience with jQuery is almost nil and everything was coded by someone else, so I'm really tearing my hair out.

This is a Wordpress installation running Thematic with two child themes, one of which uses Ajax calls to grab page content. The issue is that the Ajaxified calls stop the swfObject content from being loaded. Compa

http://dev.segolondon.com/wp292/media/ <- Flash content loads

versus:

http://dev.segolondon.com/wp292/#wp292/media/

If you take a look at the code of the two pages, you'll see there are no swfobject.embedSWF() calls on the Ajaxified page. It seems as though the jQuery calls are pre-empting the JS/Flash detection, so the swfObject code is never even written to the page.

The actual custom, handwritten code (i.e. not from a library or a plugin) on this site is minimal, so I'm grasping at straws to fix this.

I read somewhere about using a script block like this:

Code:

<script>
$(document).ready(
	function() {
		// Make the swfObject call
	}
);
</script>

But I'm not really sure where to put it since there are so many plugins used, all with slightly different embed methods.

Any help would be very gratefully received!

I am trying to perform an AJAX lookup during form validation onsubmit. It is important that it takes place during submit, but it seems to always return true and allow the form to post even when it should not. I have tried putting the AJAX portion in its own function and having it return true or false to the validation function but also does not seem to work. Here is what the code looks like...
Code:

$("#companyform").submit(function() {
			$.ajaxSetup({ cache: false });
			$.post("ajax_v2Functions.cfm", { coNum: $("#companyNumber").val() }, 			
				function(response) { 
					if(response != "") {
						alert("That company number is already in use by " + response);
						$("#companyNumber").focus();
						return false;
					}
				return false;
			} , "html");
			if($("#companyname").val() == "") {
				alert("The company name cannot be left blank.");
				$("#companyname").focus();
				return false;
			}
			if($("#companyNumber").val() == "") {
				alert("The company number cannot be left blank.");
				$("#companyNumber").focus();
				return false;
			}
	});

function sendValues() {

var str = $("#myForm").serialize();

$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: "/trying.php?avoidcache=' + myTimestamp();",
data: str,
cache: false,
return:false

});

}
$(":checkbox[name='brand[]']").click(function() {
$("#myForm").submit();


});


..Upon reload, the values are serialized..
But when the page is done loading..the chosen values (checkbox) is not checked, I need it stay checked so I can add other values via checkbox to the url.

here is a live demo.. http://vbizmarketing.com/trying.php

Please help.

right now I almost have this script working the way I want it to, here it is:

Code:

var hash = window.location.hash.substr(1);
	var href = $('.workimg a').each(function(){
		var href = $(this).attr('href');
		if(hash==href.substr(0,href.length-5)){
			var toLoad = hash+'.html #selected';
			$('#selected').load(toLoad)
		}											
	});

	$('.workimg a').click(function(){
								  
		var toLoad = $(this).attr('href')+' #selected';
		$('#selected').slideUp('slow',loadContent);
		$('#load').remove();
		$('#wrapper').append('<span id="load">LOADING...</span>');
		$('#load').fadeIn('normal');
		window.location.hash = $(this).attr('href');
		function loadContent() {
			$('#selected').load(toLoad,'',showNewContent)
		}
		function showNewContent() {
			$('#selected').slideDown('slow',hideLoader);
		}
		function hideLoader() {
			$('#load').slideUp('slow');
		}
		return false;
		
	});

How it works is an image is clicked, and it fills the #selected div with content. The problem I'm having is the #selected div is always visible so the questions I have are
1. How do I get this to snap to the #selected Div and add a 1 second delay before the slideDown effect?
2. How do I get add a fade in effect so it becomes Opacity=0 -> slideDown -> Opacity=1 when it appears and Opacity=1 slideUp -> Opacity=0 when it transitions to the next?

All,
I currently have this code to make a post to my database:
Code:

var $dataString = 'name='+ $name + '&black_white=' + $black_white + '&color=' + $color + '&color=' + $other + '&other_text=' + $text; 
$.post("save_edits.php", {image_save_string: $dataString}, function(result) { 
$("#multiple_images").hide(); 
$("#result_success").html("<font color='red'>We've successfully saved your photo edits!</font><br><br>"); 
$("#image_divs").html(result); 
});

Within the result I'm actually recreating the form for them to use if they want. I have a decent amount of jQuery that got initialized when the original page was loaded. Once I get my new form it doesn't work because it wasn't originally included in the page initialization. Is there a way just to call the document.ready function again to have it reinitialize my form elements again? Thanks in advance.

I have a problem where the page doesn't expand when more results get loaded via jquery on a facebook style wall. Once more results get loaded the footer stays static instead of moving down.

What's the best way to do this?

I'm make a ajax call to a processing PHP file that echos either "success" or an "error message".

When the success is returning, i want Jquery to recognize this and then redirect the browsers instead of displaying the success message.

Here are some snippets. I can only seem to parse to a blank or null.

Jquery code:
Code:

		$.ajax({
			type: "POST",
			url: "process.php",
			data: wfLoginPost(),
			success: function(msg){
	
                                alert(msg);

                                // both below are either null or blank
				//var res = $(msg).find("span.response").text();
				//var res = $(msg).find("span.response").html();
	
				if(res == 'Success'){
					window.location = 'http://www.google.com';
				}

			}
		});

process.php
PHP Code:
    if($qry[0]['pwd'] == $password){
        echo "<span class='response'>Success</span>";
    }else{
        echo "<span class='response'>Username or password did not match</span>";
    } 


Here is the contents of the msg response from the ajax post:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

</head>
<span class='response'>Success</span>

What would be the best way to get data for a mobile site. I've tried using Jquery $.ajax to bring in the data from a php file.

It seems to work however it takes some time to load without a way to really give a progress meter. I was wondering what the fastest way to do this would be. For instance it loads and loads then after a long while the alert(); pops up and the data loads into the page.

Ultimately i was thinking i could use the ajax request to read in the data from the mysql database server, then transfer it to localstorage, im using HTML5 primarily for the development also just for reference.

Somewhat new to mobile development i was just wondering if anyone had a starting point for me to look at and go from there.

Code:

$(document).ready(function($){
	var dataret = 0;
	
		$.ajax({
		  type: 'POST',
		  url: 'mobile.php',
		  beforeSend: function(){
		  	$('#status').show();
		  },
		  success: function(data){
		  //initialize localstorage here
		  	alert('success');
		  	
// if it takes as long as it does, a few minutes, at least show a loading bar...
		  	$('#progress').progressbar({
		  		
		  	});
		  
		  },
		  dataType: 'json'
		});
	
	});

Thanks in advance!
