Get the solution ↓↓↓
I tried to coding it. I am still getting stuck over it. The main goal was if user select value from mysqli database selected it and send the values to other pages. I know people recommend it use by AJAX. I tried to use it. still not working. I'll put details code below.
Main pages Code(main.php)-
<?php
session_start();
$conn=mysqli_connect('localhost','root','','user');
if(!$conn){
die('Please check an Connection.'.mysqli_error());
}
$resultset=$conn->query("SELECT name from newtable"); ?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head><script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/popper.js/1.16.0/umd/popper.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<center>
Select DataBase to Insert it<select name="tables" id="tables">
<?php
while($rows=$resultset->fetch_assoc()){
echo'<option value='.$rows['name'].'>'.$rows['name'].'</option>';
}
?>
</select>
<a href="database1.php">click </a>
</center>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var search='';
$("#tables option:selected").each(function() {
if ($(this).attr('value') !== '') {
search=$(this).attr('value');
}
});
$("a").click(function() {
$.ajax({
method: 'post',
url: 'database1.php',
data: {key:search},
beforeSend: function() {
$('body').css("opacity", "0.3");
},
success: function(response) {
alert(response);
},
complete: function() {
$('body').css("opacity", "1");
}
});
});
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
as alert box i am getting value of it but second pages get error that key value doesn't exist. here the second one pages (database1.php) -
<?php
$conn=mysqli_connect('localhost','root','','user');
session_start();
if(!$conn){
die('Please check an Connection.'.mysqli_error());
}
$database=$_POST['key'];
echo'You Selected'.$database.'from table';
$sql = "SELECT * FROM $database";
$result=mysqli_query($conn,$sql);
if($result){
echo'Worked';
}else{
echo'ERROR!';
}
?>
so what the problem occurred?
UPDATED ANSWER
Thanks to @swati which she mentioned that use form tag instead of AJAX (i know its simple answer) still by the way thanks for answer. :)
UPDATED CODE FULL -
<body>
<form action="database1.php" method="GET">
<center>
Select DataBase to Insert it<select name="tables" id="tables">
<?php
while($rows=$resultset->fetch_assoc()){
echo'<option
value='.$rows['name'].'>'.$rows['name'].'</option>';
}
?>
</select>
<input type="submit">
</center>
</form>
</body>
SECOND PAGE(database1.php) CHANGES LITTLE -
$database=$_GET['tables'];
Answer
Solution:
You are calling eachloop on page load that will give you the already selected value not the value which is selected by user.Also , this loop is not need as you have to pass only one value .
Yourscript should look like below :
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
//no need to add loop here
var search = '';
$("a").click(function() {
search = $("#tables option:selected").val(); //getting selected value of select-box
$.ajax({
method: 'post',
url: 'database1.php',
data: {
key: search
},
beforeSend: function() {
$('body').css("opacity", "0.3");
},
success: function(response) {
alert(response);
},
complete: function() {
$('body').css("opacity", "1");
}
});
});
});
</script>
Also , as you are using ajax no need to givehref="database1.php" toa tag because you are calling this page using ajax .i.e: Youra tag should be like below :
<a>click</a>
And whatever you willecho in php side will be return as response to your ajax .So , youralert inside success function will show you that value.
