PHP - Dependable Dropdownlist Php/mysql/ajax
Hi all,
I'm trying to code a dependable dropdownlist with php/mysql/ajax.
Goal is to select one thing in the first dropdown and depending on that option (and without reloading the page) enabling the second and add the options to the second, dependant on the first.
This is the index :
<?php require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/dbconnect.php'); ?> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $(".country").change(function() { var id=$(this).val(); var dataString = 'id='+id; $.ajax ({ type: "POST", url: "edit_form.php", data: dataString, cache: false, success: function(html) { $(".city").html(html); } }); }); }); </script> <?php $id_test=$_POST['selector']; $N = count($id_test); for($i=0; $i < $N; $i++) { $result = mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT * FROM cloud where id='$id_test[$i]'"); while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) { $id_bird = $row['id']; ?> <div style="margin:80px"> <label>Country :</label> <select name="country" class="country"> <option selected="selected">--Select Country--</option> <?php $sql=mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT category.id AS cat_id, category.name, category.type, cloud.id FROM cloud,category,link_category_cloud WHERE link_category_cloud.cloud_id = cloud.id AND link_category_cloud.category_id = category.id AND cloud.id='$id_test[$i]'"); while($row=mysqli_fetch_array($sql)) { $id_test=$row['cat_id']; $data=$row['name']; echo '<option value="'.$id_test.'">'.$data.'</option>'; } ?> </select> <br/> <br/> <label>City :</label> <select name="city" class="city"> <option selected="selected">--Select City--</option> </select> </div> <?php } } ?>And this is the edit_form.php part : <?php require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/dbconnect.php'); $cat_id = $_GET['cat_id']; $cloud_id = $_GET['id']; if($_POST['id_test']) { $id_test=$_POST['id_test']; $data=$_POST['data']; $sql=mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT * FROM link_category_cloud WHERE category_id={$cat_id}"); $data=$row['cloud_id']; $id_test=$_POST['id_test']; echo '<option value="'.$id_test.'">'.$id_test.' '.$data.'</option>'; //} } ?>Now, it does not work. I'm not only tring to pass through ID to 'edit_form.php', but also $data and $id_test[i]. Any idea how I can do this? Thank you very much, all help is so appreciated!!

It's stored into a variable as an array: $pun_user. Now, to get access this user data, it selects all the data each refresh and sets it to $pun_user for extraction later. My idea: Create a $_SESSION['user_id'] = $pun_user['user_id'] And then when using updating stuff via ajax requests, I can just do SELECT blah from users where where user_id = $_SESSION['user_id'] instead of: calling the main query to enter all the data into $pun_user, then do that query AGAIN and do SELECT blah from users where user_id = $pun_user['user_id'] Is the $_SESSION way going to take a performance hit on the server? Or is the MYSQL way a more detrimental approach? Which way is faster, and less intrusive on the server? Edited by Monkuar, 22 January 2015 - 10:35 PM. I wonder whether someone can help me please. I've found http://www.plus2net.com/php_tutorial/ajax-listbox.php tutorial to create a drop down menu using mySQL table data, which, in turn returns a list of results on the page. Following this tutorial I've put together the tables in my database and the required scripts as shown in the tutorial with the one exception, the "z_db.php" file, which I've assumed to be: Code: [Select] <?php mysql_connect("host", "user", "password")or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("database"); ?> The problem I have, is that when I try and run this, I receive the following error: Quote Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' in /homepages/2/d333603417/htdocs/development/catsearch.php on line 91 which is this line in the search form: echo "</head><body onload="ajaxFunction()";>";. I must admit I've guessed as to the structure of the 'z_db.php' file should look like because this is not shown so perhaps this is the problem. I just wondered wether someone could perhaps take a look at this please and let me know where I've gone wrong.

Code: This topic has been moved to Ajax Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=347691.0 Hello everyone, I begin in everything web related but I have been programming for years. I tried to code something simple : small Mysql DB (works fine) and to begin a search bar to browse data. I adapted a code that I understood provided here : https://www.cloudways.com/blog/live-search-php-mysql-ajax/. Base principle is simple : as you type in your query, it will pass the text to script.js that will forward this request to ajax.php file. In the ajax.php, a javascript function named “fill()” will pass the fetched results. This function will also display the result(s) into “display” div in the “search.php” file. The problem is that when I type anything it displays, below the search bar, at the moment I type a character: Quote
'; //Fetching result from database. while ($Result = MySQLi_fetch_array($ExecQuery)) { ?> ")'>
instead of the actual answer from my database (no error in the browser console). I tested the SQL query + the user I provide and everything seems fine. Any clue what could be the root cause ? I strongly suspect a mistake in the code as I already corrected one (script.js instead of scripts.js) but I really cannot figure out where. Thanks in advance,
problematic code (ajax.php):
<?php //Including Database configuration file. include "db.php"; //Getting value of "search" variable from "script.js". if (isset($_POST['search'])) { //Search box value assigning to $Name variable. $Name = $_POST['search']; //Search query. $Query = "SELECT Name FROM search WHERE Name LIKE '%$Name%' LIMIT 5"; //Query execution $ExecQuery = MySQLi_query($con, $Query); //Creating unordered list to display result. echo ' <ul> '; //Fetching result from database. while ($Result = MySQLi_fetch_array($ExecQuery)) { ?> <!-- Creating unordered list items. Calling javascript function named as "fill" found in "script.js" file. By passing fetched result as parameter. --> <li onclick='fill("<?php echo $Result['Name']; ?>")'> <a> <!-- Assigning searched result in "Search box" in "search.php" file. --> <?php echo $Result['Name']; ?> </li></a> <!-- Below php code is just for closing parenthesis. Don't be confused. --> <?php }} ?> </ul>
I had this working, but when I try and get fancy and use AJAX the data doesn't display. I think this is a PHP problem though. My code for the select form including AJAX code Code: [Select] <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en-GB"> <head> <title>AJAX Example</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Form.css" media="screen" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ $("tr:odd").addClass("odd"); }); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> function showPlayers(str) { var xmlhttp; if (str=="") { document.getElementById("DataDisplay").innerHTML=""; return; } if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); else {// code for IE6, IE5 } xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) { document.getElementById("DataDisplay").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","Query.php?category_id="+str,true); xmlhttp.send(); } </script> </head> <body> <h1">AJAX Example</h1> <?php #connect to MySQL $conn = @mysql_connect( "localhost","username","pw") or die( "You did not successfully connect to the DB!" ); #select the specified database $rs = @mysql_SELECT_DB ("MyDB", $conn ) or die ( "Error connecting to the database test!"); ?> <form name="sports" id="sports"> <legend>Select a Sport</legend> <select name="category_id" onChange="showPlayers(this.value)"> <option value="">Select a Sport:</option> <?php $sql = "SELECT category_id, sport FROM sports ".

When I echo out the SQL the result is Code: [Select] SELECT * FROM sports INNER JOIN players ON sports.category_id = players.category_id WHERE players.category_id = '' so the category_id is not being selected properly and that is the primary key/foreign key in the MySQL table which connects the JOIN. All I am trying to do is add a record on a page without the page refreshing. For that ajax is used. Here is the code.
It does not add the record to mysql table. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

How can I do? thanks! Hi. I got this code below, which makes a dropdownlist. the value is passed in a string to a URL. The value EXAMPLE: is 13:30pm, but what reaches the URL is 13 If i add the mysql_real_escape_string, the full value is passed to the URL. BUT so is the "mysql_real_escape_string".. what is wrong with this code? this example does not work period: $query = "SELECT DISTINCT timeslot_start FROM #__profile_rates ORDER BY timeslot_start ASC"; $dropDownList ="<select class=\"inputbox\" name=\"timeslotstart\">"; $timeslotstarts =doSelectSql($query); foreach ($timeslotstarts as $timelotstart) { $timeslot_start=mysql_real_escape_string($timelotstart->timeslot_start); $dropDownList .= "<option value=$timeslot_start>".$timeslot_start."</option>"; } $dropDownList.="</select>"; $output['TIMESLOTSTART']=$dropDownList; but if i change to this it works but gives the "mysql_real_escape_string" in the url foreach ($timeslotstarts as $timelotstart) { $timeslot_start=$timelotstart->timeslot_start; $dropDownList .= "<option value=mysql_real_escape_string($timeslot_start)>".$timeslot_start."</option>"; } //Url looks like www.xxxx.com/xxx/x//xxxx/timeslotstart=mysql_real_escape_string(13%3A30pm), Everything is correct except the mysql_real_escape_string and the "(" and ")" should not be passed. how can i write this?

One thing i noticed when i used firebug it gives error on category when searching error:true. Hope you guys understand what i mean here, and also all help is appreciated. And move this post if it's in wrong place. Thanks! Edited by aeonius, 17 October 2014 - 12:15 PM. Right now I redirect to index page after I delete a record. However I am looking to make it so that I can delete a record without redirecting the page. I know this can be accomplised using Ajax. I have spent countless hours before trying to make it work, but it did not work.
So here is a basic setup I created. Can you please update it with ajax code so that I can see how it's done properly?
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <title>Home Page</title> </head> <body> <div class="record" > <a href="record.php?id=<?php echo $record_id ?>"><?php echo $record_name; ?></a> <div class="delete-record"> <a href="delete.php">Delete Record</a> </div> </div> </body> </html> Edited by man5, 18 August 2014 - 08:55 PM. Now I'm having this strange issue with my website I'm currently working on a tester system and I've encountered a problem that I'm unable to find the issue, tho I'm thinking my ajax php part of the script to be the thing causing it even tho it seems strange that it would cause it. The first part which is connected to where the problem occurs is the echo"<form>"; and from there, It should take you to index.php?page=tester&select=answer, now that is where it in the browser goes there tho it still shows the page stuff from the last page which is index.php?page=tester&select=applications, so it's like showing both &select=answer and &select=applications on the same page. <?php $q=$_GET["q"]; include'../config/connection.php'; $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM applications WHERE id = '$q'"); echo "<center><table border='1'> <tr> <th>Account Name</th> <th>Character Name</th> <th>Gender</th> <th>Skin Color</th> </tr>"; $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $row['name'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['charactername'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['gender'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['race'] . "</td>"; echo "</tr></table></center>"; echo"<br/>"; echo"<table><tr> <th>Description</th> <th>Metagaming</th> <th>Powergaming</th></tr>"; echo"<tr>"; echo "<td><textarea readonly='readonly' style='width:22em; height:20em;'>".$row['description']."</textarea></td>"; echo "<td><textarea readonly='readonly' style='width:22em; height:20em;'>".$row['mg']."</textarea></td>"; echo "<td><textarea readonly='readonly' style='width:22em; height:20em;'>".$row['pg']."</textarea></td>"; echo"</tr></table><table><br/><center><h1>Answer</h1><br/><form action='index.php?page=tester&select=answer' method='post'>"; echo"<textarea name='why' style='height:10em; width:60em;'></textarea><br/>"; echo"<input type='submit' name='answer' value='Accept' /><a/>"; echo"<input type='submit' name='answer' value='Decline' /></center>"; echo"<input type='hidden' name='id' value='$q'/>"; echo"</form></table>"; ?> Now on &select=answer it included a page which the script of that include consist of the stuff below, it outputs that the query was successfully, and all that. <? if(!empty($_POST['why'])) { $why = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['why']); $answer = trim($_POST['answer']); $id = $_POST['id']; if($answer == "Accept") { $query1 = mysql_query("UPDATE characters SET accepted = '1' WHERE id = '".$id."'"); echo"Successfully accepted"; $answer = 1; } elseif($answer == "Decline") { echo"Successfully declined"; $answer = 0; } $query = mysql_query("UPDATE applications SET answer = '$why' AND tester = '".$_COOKIE['Username']."'

Thanks in advance. Hi, I need to call to this text to add a all with value "blank/empty" or "0" to the dropdownlist code below.. it should be inserted int the first position in the dropdownlist and have a value blank and call to this text from the language files: $searchAll = gettext('_LANGUAGE_SEARCH_ALL',_LANGUAGE_SEARCH_ALL,false,false); example is: ratestitle=>0 gettext('_LANGUAGE_SEARCH_ALL',_LANGUAGE_SEARCH_ALL,false,false); the words it calls is "ALL" when the user selects or leaves the "ALL" in the list the value remains empty this allows the search to search everything.. basically im stuck how to get it in the dropdown list as the first default position: can anyone help? here is my code://this is a search function which calls to the field rate_title the text from the select box is matched to the database table and the search pages shows the search option is the search is successful.. I have 5 of these types of searches but cant give a broader search option to my users as the values must be selected to search--- i need the option "ALL" to have a "EMPTY" value or no value.... if (in_array("ratestitle",$searchOptions)&& $showSearchOptions ) { if (empty($sch->filter['ratestitle']) ) $selectOption=$output['LANGUAGE_SEARCH_RATESTITLE']; else $selectOption=$sch->filter['ratestitle']; $showButton=true; $query = "SELECT DISTINCT rate_title FROM #__rates_table ORDER BY rate_title ASC"; $dropDownList ="<select class=\"inputbox\" name=\"ratestitle\">"; $ratesitles =doSelectSql($query); foreach ($ratesitles as $ratetitle) { $selected=""; $rate_title=$ratetitle->rate_title; if ($ratetitle==".$sch->filter['ratestitle'].") $selected="selected"; $dropDownList .= "<option ".$selected." value=\"".$rate_title."\">".$rate_title."</option>"; } $dropDownList.="</select>"; $output['RATESTITLE']=$dropDownList; } |
