I'm trying to submit users comments via ajax so I'm trying to loop through <div class="comments-fields">
to get the value of the 2 fields I need.
So far all I'm getting is this error, as if I am not filling the comments textarea which I am.
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'comment' cannot be null (SQL: insert into
comments
(user_id
,comment
,parent_id
,parents
,updated_at
,created_at
) values (1, , , 0, 2015-10-17 00:57:59, 2015-10-17 00:57:59))
and console.log(formData)
gives something like this.
formData {}
__proto__: FormData
append: append()
constructor: FormData()
__proto__: Object
How can I achieve this? if there is a better way please suggest.
HTML
<div class="comment-fields">
<div class="commenter-comment">
<div class="form-group col-md-12">
<textarea id="commenter_comment" name="commenter_comment" class="form-control comment-field" title="User's comment" placeholder="Comment Text"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<div class="commenter-name-email">
<input type="hidden" id="commenter_parent" name="commenter_parent" class="commenter-parent" value="0">
</div>
<div class="commenter-captcha">
<div class="col-md-3 text-right">
<a href="javascript:void(0)" class="btn btn-info post-this-comment">Comment</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The Javascript
function commenter_fields(){
return [
'commenter_parent',
'commenter_user_id',
'commenter_comment'
];
}
$(document).on('click', 'a.post-this-comment', function(){
var formData = new FormData();
var arrayelem = commenter_fields();
var elem;
for(var i=0, size = arrayelem.length; i<size; i++){
elem = arrayelem[i];
formData.append(elem, $('#'+elem).val());
}
formData.append('per_page', $('.comments_per_page').val());
var request = $.ajax({ // push question data to server
type : 'POST', // define the type of HTTP verb we want to use (POST for our form)
url : 'post_this_comment', // the url where we want to POST
data : formData, // our data object
dataType : 'json',
processData : false,
contentType : false
});
request.done(comment_done_handler);
request.fail(comment_fail_handler); // fail promise callback
});
I am using PhpStrom, clicking on FormData()
leads to this file
C:\\Program Files (x86)\\JetBrains\\PhpStorm 9.0\\plugins\\JavaScriptLanguage\\lib\\JavaScriptLanguage.jar!\\com\\intellij\\lang\\javascript\\index\\predefined\\HTML5.js
And this is FormData
FormData.prototype.append = function(name,value) {};
FormData = {};
I would suggest using regular objects because they are much easier to work with over formData (in my opinion).
The jQuery documents state Type: PlainObject or String or Array
for the data setting in an ajax post which makes me think they like objects too.
So, instead, your click handler could go:
var form_data = {
'per_page': $('.comments_per_page').val()
};
var arr = [
'commenter_parent',
'commenter_user_id',
'commenter_comment'
];
for (var i in arr; i < arr.length; i++) {
var elem = arr[i];
form_data[elem] = $('#' + elem).val();
}
// console.log(form_data); // something like => Object {per_page: "some_value", commenter_parent: "some_value", commenter_user_id: "some_value", commenter_comment: "some_value"}
var request = $.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'your_url_here',
data: form_data,
dataType: 'json'
});
request.done(comment_done_handler);
request.fail(comment_fail_handler);
A simpler approach would be to use data attributes on the elements and just build a data string from your values like this:
$(document).on('click', 'a.post-this-comment', function () { var dataArray=[]; // array to temporarilly store our data $('#comment-fields').find('.commenter-field').each(function(i,e){ //loop through all of the fields we need values from, I gave them all the class `commenter-field` var $element =$(e); // cache the element var type=$element.data('comment-field-type'); // get the name of the data, stored as a data attribute var value=encodeURIComponent($element.val()); // get the value, you MUST encode the value, otherwise, you WILL run into issues at some point with illegal chars dataArray.push(type+'='+value); // combine the type and value separated by `=` }); var dataString=dataArray.join('&'); // join the array with `&` between each name/value pair var request = $.ajax({ // push question data to server type: 'POST', // define the type of HTTP verb we want to use (POST for our form) url: 'post_this_comment.php', // the url where we want to POST, missing file extension here? data: dataString, // our data string dataType: 'json', // only if your code expects a json response from `post_this_comment.php` }); request.done(comment_done_handler); request.fail(comment_fail_handler); // fail promise callback });
