i have a javascript code that requests a php page to provide it with list of names that are currently online and update a Table, but i have a problem sending it back in form of an array, someone told me that this is usually done using XML, but i dont know how to start.
javascript Post method:-
$.post( "updateTable.php", POSTdata,
function( data ) {
$("#mytable").last().append('<tr><td>'+data+'</td></tr>');
}
);
the php file:-
include("connect.php");
$query1 = "SELECT * FROM formtable";
$result_id = mysql_query($query1, $global_dbh)
or die ("display_db_query:" . mysql_error());
while ($table_array = mysql_fetch_object ($result_id))
{
$rows[] = $table_array;
}
foreach ($rows as $temp ) {
if ($temp->isOnline==1)
$newRow[] = $temp->name;
}
echo "$newRow";
mysql_close($global_dbh);
Please excuse any syntax or semantics in my code, i am a beginner. How can i populate my table using ajax callback function, and in what form the data will arrive there, and how can i use xml to help me. Many thanks in advance.
A quick example of json:
var table = $("#mytable").last();
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: "updateTable.php",
dataType: 'json',
data: POSTdata,
success: function(data){
jQuery.each(data, function(i, row){
//console.log(row);
table.append('<tr><td>'+row.name+'</td></tr>');
});
}
});
and in php file, instead of :
echo "$newRow";
replace with:
echo json_encode($newRow);
That's it!
