I have been trying to create an ajax request in codeigniter. I've seen this question: Simple Ajax/Codeigniter request but I wasn't able to absorb that as there were the answers in which people were using PHP inside Javascript . I didn't know it was possible, however I gave that a try but it seems like the PHP wasn't being executed.
So here are my questions:
var param = {name : event_name, date : event_date, time : event_time};
$.ajax({
// As seen from the question here at stackoverflow.
url : "<?php echo base_url('event/new_event'); ?>",
type : 'POST',
data : param,
beforeSend : function(){ },
success : function(){
alert("Event created! Feel free to add as much details as you want.");
namebox.val("");
$("#new-event-modal").find(".close").trigger('click');
window.location.href = "<php echo base_url('user/dashboard'); ?>";
},
complete : function(){ },
error : function(){ }
});
I know the possibility that I could hardcode the URL
in the request but that wouldn't be a good practice!!
the easiest way for you to accomplish this is by using some jquery:
function getBaseUrl() {
var l = window.location;
var base_url = l.protocol + "//" + l.host + "/" + l.pathname.split('/')[1];
return base_url;
}
var postdata = {name : event_name, date : event_date, time : event_time};
var url = getBaseUrl()+"/event/new_event";
$.post(url, postdata, function(result){
...alert(result);
});
or call it straight from JS by caching it:
<script>
var test = "<?php echo base_url(); ?>"+"event/new_event";
alert(test);
</script>
Here is a dirty hack that I was going to use:
base_url()
as the value of that hidden field . base url
and use it however you want. The right way is always the simplest way, there is no need to import Jquery in your client if you are not already using it.
This is your controller
<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) die();
class Example_ctrl extends CI_Controller {
public function ajax_echo()
{
// get the ajax input
$input = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'));
// $input can be accessed like an object
$password = $input->password;
$name = $input->name;
// you can encode data back to JSON
$output = json_encode($input);
// and the response goes back!
echo($output);
}
}
?>
This goes into your client
<script>
// here's the data you will send
var my_data = {name: "Smith", password: "abc123"};
// create the request object
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
// open the object to the required url
xhr.open("POST", "example_ctrl/ajax_echo", true);
// on success, alert the response
xhr.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xhr.readyState != 4 || xhr.status != 200)
return;
alert("Success: " + xhr.responseText);
};
// encode in JSON and send the string
xhr.send(JSON.stringify(my_data));
</script>
Php codes can't be executed from external javascript files.
Try any of these :-
1) base_url() is something's that's will not change , better store it in cookie and then access it in both server side code and client side code
2) you can store the same base_url() in local storage , it will be available in your external JavaScript files
Hope it helps you :)
