Before I ask this question, I have already referred to the example of this question. However, it seems doesn't work. Without using ajax, I can get my post deleted but after implement ajax, the deleteAtc.php seems to be not working.
My delete page code (delete.php)
<h4>Select an Article to Delete:</h4>
<?php foreach ($articles as $article) { ?>
<span><?php echo $article['article_title']; ?></span> <a href="#" id="link">Delete</a><br />
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('#link').click(function(){
var id = <?php echo $article['article_id']; ?>;
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "deleteAtc.php",
data: "id"+id+,
sucess: function() {
$('#sucess').html(data);
}
})
return false;
});
});
</script>
<div id="success"></div><br />
<?php } ?>
While my deleteAtc.php code:
<?php
session_start();
include_once('../includes/connection.php');
if (isset($_SESSION['logged_in'])) {
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$id = $_GET['id'];
$query = $pdo->prepare('DELETE FROM articles WHERE article_id = ?');
$query->bindValue(1, $id);
$query->execute();
echo "Article deleted";
}
}
?>
What I'm trying to do here is to delete the record without redirect to deleteAtc.php
, it will remove out the record and replace Article Deleted
May I know where did I go wrong in ajax side?
Please refer below for updated question
Based on the answer below, here is my updated code:
delete.php
<h4>Select an Article to Delete:</h4>
<div id="message"></div>
<?php foreach ($articles as $article) { ?>
<span><?php echo $article['article_title']; ?></span>
<a href="#" class="link" data-artid="<?php echo $article['article_id']; ?>">Delete</a><br />
<?php } ?>
script
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('.link').click(function(){
var elem = $(this);
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "deleteAtc.php",
data: "id="+elem.attr('data-artid'),
dataType:"json",
success: function(data) {
if(data.success){
elem.hide();
$('#message').html(data.message);
}
}
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
deleteAtc.php
<?php
session_start();
include_once('../includes/connection.php');
if (isset($_SESSION['logged_in'])) {
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$id = $_GET['id'];
$query = $pdo->prepare('DELETE FROM articles WHERE article_id = ?');
$query->bindValue(1, $id);
$query->execute();
//Also try to handle false conditions or failure
echo json_encode(array('success'=>TRUE,'message'=>"Article deleted"));
}
}
?>
Somehow, if I delete two record at a time, only the first record echo the result, the second result deleted doesn't echo out the result.
Am wondering, possible to add jquery animation to .show the success message and .hide the record deleted?
