I have a question re. receiving data from php-function to ajax.
Ajax (in html-file):
function showUser(name) {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '/api.php',
data: {
name : "\""+name+"\"",
func_id : "1"
},
dataType: 'json',
success: function(data)
{
if (data == null) {
console.log("Something went wrong..");
} else {
console.log(data);
Php (separate php-file):
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
//MySQL Database connect start
$host = "localhost";
$user = "root";
$pass = "root";
$databaseName = "TFD";
$con = mysqli_connect($host, $user, $pass);
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo "Failed to connect to database: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
$dbs = mysqli_select_db($con, $databaseName);
//MySQL Database connect end
$func_id = $_POST['func_id'];
function showUser() {
global $con;
$name = $_POST['name'];
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE first_name=$name";
$result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);
$array = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
mysqli_close($con);
echo json_encode($array);
}
if ($func_id == "1") {
showUser();
}
?>
The question: Everything works if I don't have the showUser-function in the php, ie I receive correct output to ajax if I have all php code in the "root" directly, but when I put that part in a function I don't get anything sent to ajax. The Network-panel in Chrome shows correct query from the sql so $array contains correct data, but I don't receive it in ajax. Is there a fix for this? Thanks!
The reason may be that the variables inside a function're visible only for function itself. Try this way:
$name = $_POST['name'];
function showUser($name) {
global $con;
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE first_name=$name";
$result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);
$array = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
mysqli_close($con);
echo json_encode($array);
}
Note: If you'll use 'mysql_escape_string' to prevent sql injections, don't forget to connect to db first, otherwise 'mysql_escape_string' will return empty string.
