Good day,
I have a php file (db.php) which contains the following function
function edit_record($id, $value){
if($this->db->query('UPDATE tbl_prototype SET value = ' . $value .' WHERE id_component = '.$id)){
$this->register_changes();
return TRUE;
}
return FALSE;
}
Besides, I have some checkboxes in my html page as follows :
<input id="chk01" type="checkbox" data-onstyle="success" data-toggle="toggle">
<input id="chk02" type="checkbox" data-onstyle="success" data-toggle="toggle">
the html page contains also the following script.
<script>
/* AJAX request to checker */
function check(){
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'checker.php',
dataType: 'json',
data: {
counter:$('#message-list').data('counter')
}
}).done(function( response ) {
/* check if with response we got a new update */
if(response.update==true){
var j = response.news;
$('#message-list').html(response.news);
sayHello(j);
}
});
};
//Every 1/2 sec check if there is new update
setInterval(check,500);
</script>
<script>
function sayHello(j){
var json=$.parseJSON(j);
var techname = "";
var techname1 = "";
var c;
var w;
$(json).each(function(i,val){
$.each(val,function(k,v){
if (k=="tech_name")
{
techname = "#" + v;
techname1 = v;
}
else
{
console.log("Mon nom est " + techname + " et ma valeur est " + v);
c=document.getElementById(techname1);
if (c.checked)
{
w = 1;
}
else
{
w = 0;
}
console.log(w);
console.log("techname : " + techname1);
if (v != w)
{
console.log ("Pas identique");
if (v==0)
{
// false
uncheckBox(techname);
}
else
{
// true
checkBox(techname);
}
}
else
{
console.log ("Identique");
}
}
});
});
}
function checkBox(pCtrl)
{
toggleOn(pCtrl);
}
function uncheckBox(pCtrl)
{
toggleOff(pCtrl);
}
</script>
Now for my question: where and how should I specify that I would like to run the function 'edit_record' stored in the 'db.php' file with the two parameters ($id and $value).
Contents of 'checker.php' :
<?php require('common.php');
//get current counter
$data['current'] = (int)$db->check_changes();
//set initial value of update to false
$data['update'] = false;
//check if it's ajax call with POST containing current (for user) counter;
//and check if that counter is diffrent from the one in database
//if(isset($_POST) && !empty($_POST['counter']) && (int)$_POST['counter']!=$data['current']){
if(isset($_POST)){
$data['news'] = $db->get_news2();
$data['update'] = true;
}
//just echo as JSON
echo json_encode($data);
/* End of file checker.php */
Thanks a lot for your valuable inputs. Sorry if the question sounds silly (I'm a newbie in php/ajax/jquery programming).
In modern web apps with rich interface You should go for REST API and create controller which should be in You case in checker.php. Example ( checker.php ):
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST'){
//update code
edit_record($_POST['id'],$_POST['counter]);
}
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'GET'){
//get code
}
ps. i do not see passing id in ajax, you send only counter, so you should add id like:
...
data: {
id:yourId //here your id
counter:$('#message-list').data('counter')
}
Next thing remove from js:
setInterval(check,500);
and create bind:
$("yourcheckboxselector").on("click",function(e){
check($(this).prop("checked") ) //here you have it was checked or not as boolean
});
