Hi i am trying to update data in a database from a form on the same page as the php code without redirecting/reloading the page.
I tried this tutorial but that didn't work: http://www.formget.com/form-submit-without-page-refreshing-jquery-php /
Update code:
<?php
include "db.php";
session_start();
$value=$_POST['name'];
$query = mysqli_query($connection,"UPDATE users SET profiel='$value' WHERE username='$_SESSION['user']'");
?>
Profilecomplete.js:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#submit").click(function() {
var name = $("#name").val();
if (name == '') {
alert("Insertion Failed Some Fields are Blank....!!");
} else {
// Returns successful data submission message when the entered information is stored in database.
$.post("config/profilecomplete.php", {
value: name
}, function(data) {
alert(data);
$('#form')[0].reset(); // To reset form fields
});
}
});
});
The form:
<form method="POST" id="form">
<div class="input-field col s6">
<input id="name" type="text" class="validate">
<label for="name">Value</label>
</div>
<button type="submit" id="submit" class="btn-flat">Update</button>
</form>
How your click event can occur even if you are not preventing the default behavior of the form submit button. Make the submit input as a button or use event.preventDefault()
to submit the form via ajax.
<?php
include "db.php";
session_start();
if(isset($_POST)) {
$value=$_POST['name'];
$query = mysqli_query($connection,"UPDATE users SET profiel='$value' WHERE username='{$_SESSION['user']}'");
echo ($query) ? "Updated" : "Not Updated";
exit;
} else {
?>
<form method="POST" id="form">
<div class="input-field col s6">
<input id="name" type="text" class="validate" name="name">
<label for="name">Value</label>
</div>
<button type="button" id="submit" class="btn-flat">Update</button>
</form>
<?php } ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#submit").click(function() {
var name = $("#name").val();
if (name === '') {
alert("Insertion Failed Some Fields are Blank....!!");
} else {
// Returns successful data submission message when the entered information is stored in database.
$.post("config/profilecomplete.php", {name: name}, function(data) {
alert(data);
$('form')[0].reset(); // To reset form fields
});
}
});
});
</script>
It looks like the issue, or at least, one of the issues, is on this line;
$query = mysqli_query($connection,"UPDATE users SET profiel='$value' WHERE username='$_SESSION['user']'");
You are opening and closing the single quotes twice, here
WHERE username='$_SESSION['user']'
Try using this instead;
$query = mysqli_query($connection,"UPDATE users SET profiel='$value' WHERE username='" . $_SESSION["user"] . "'");
Use this, it's working already.
index.php
<form method="post">
<input type="text" id="name">
<input type="submit" id="submit">
</form>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#submit").click(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var nameInput = $("#name").val();
var name = {
'name' : nameInput
}
if (nameInput == '') {
alert("Insertion Failed Some Fields are Blank....!!");
} else {
// Returns successful data submission message when the entered information is stored in database.
$.post("config/profilecomplete.php", {value: name}, function(data) {
alert(data);
//$('#form')[0].reset(); // To reset form fields
});
}
});
});
</script>
profilecomplete.php
<?php
$_POST = array_shift($_POST); // array_shift is very important, it lets you use the posted data.
echo $_POST['name'];
?>
if you want a more simple way.
try to use $.ajax()
