i made a function that sends data (ajax) to the database and depending on the response from the server i need to alert a message but it seems like whenvever i change the select option i get the alert message for each change(if i change the select four times when i click i get the alert four times ) , but if i remove my ajax function and replace it simply by an alert i get it once not repeating itself here is my JS
$('.select_ids').change(function () {
var id = $(this).val();
var form = $('#form_widget_ids_' + id);
var container = form.parent('.ewb_forms');
var box = container.parent('.edit_widget_box');
container.children('.selected').fadeOut(300, function () {
$(this).removeClass('selected');
form.fadeIn(300, function () {
$(this).addClass('selected');
});
});
Widget.updateSSOUrl(box);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: window.location + "",
data: {'id': id}
}).done(function (msg) {
$(".red").on('click', function (evt) {
if ('done' == msg) {
evt.preventDefault();
alert('NOP');
}
})
});
});
the event that you are binding i think is wrong. For newly append items is better in your case to use
$(document).on('click', ".red", function (evt) {
})
And it must be moved outside the ajax success because now you are triggering it every time
----- Edited --- If you want just to alert the output of the ajax you dont need the onClick event
$('.select_ids').change(function () {
var id = $(this).val();
var form = $('#form_widget_ids_' + id);
var container = form.parent('.ewb_forms');
var box = container.parent('.edit_widget_box');
container.children('.selected').fadeOut(300, function () {
$(this).removeClass('selected');
form.fadeIn(300, function () {
$(this).addClass('selected');
});
});
Widget.updateSSOUrl(box);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: window.location + "",
data: {'id': id}
}).done(function (msg) {
if (msg === 'done') {
evt.preventDefault();
alert('NOP');
}
});
});
If you want to show the latest result on a button click you can store the msg on a global variable and on click of a div show that like
var globalMsg = "";
$('.select_ids').change(function () {
var id = $(this).val();
var form = $('#form_widget_ids_' + id);
var container = form.parent('.ewb_forms');
var box = container.parent('.edit_widget_box');
container.children('.selected').fadeOut(300, function () {
$(this).removeClass('selected');
form.fadeIn(300, function () {
$(this).addClass('selected');
});
});
Widget.updateSSOUrl(box);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: window.location + "",
data: {'id': id}
}).done(function (msg) {
globalMsg = msg
});
});
$(".div").click(function() { alert(globalMSG); });
