如何在没有window.open的情况下从Javascript启动PHP文件

Question

I'm using Javascript and I need to call a PHP file to execute some stuff, but I'd like not to use window.open("filename.php"); because it usually opens a new tab or new window.

Sometime a PHP file need a few seconds to finish its job and I don't like to see an open tab or open window while it's working.

Thanks

Answer 1

AJAX is the solution, and with jQuery it's so simple.

Just add this line on your head section (to include jquery):

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    $.ajax({
      type: "GET",
      url: "yourPage.php"
    }).done(function( data) {
      alert( "Request is done" );
    });
</script>

You can use ajax or dynamically create iframe.

If you use extjs library - here is example ajax request

Answer 3

Use Ajax! Here's a solution using JavaScript's jQuery library:

$.post('your_file.php', {parameter : some_value}, function(response){
  // now you can use `response` came from your_file.php after execution
});

$.post() , $.get() are shorthand methods for $.ajax() of jQuery.

or simply use .load() ,

('#test_div').load('your_file.php'); //load data from server into `#test_div`

will do job, if you want to just execute something on server-side.
