please in need help in updating multiple rows based on dynamic data fetched from mysql database. I have implemented this using $_Post to udate.php file, but how can i do this using ajax.
//THIS SCRIPT FETCH FROM DATABASE
<body>
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost","root","");
mysql_select_db("student") or die("Unable to select database");
$sql = "SELECT * FROM students ORDER BY id";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die($sql."<br/><br/>".mysql_error());
$i = 0;
echo '<table width="50%">';
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td>ID</td>';
echo '<td>Name</td>';
echo '<td>Address</td>';
echo '</tr>';
echo "<form name='form_update' method='post' action='update.php'>\n";
while ($students = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo '<tr>';
echo "<td>{$students['id']}<input type='hidden' name='id[$i]'value='{$students['id']}' /></td>";
echo "<td>{$students['name']}</td>";
echo "<td><input type='text' size='40' name='address[$i]' value='{$students['address']}' /></td>";
echo '</tr>';
++$i;
}
echo '<tr>';
echo "<td><input type='submit' value='submit' /></td>";
echo '</tr>';
echo "</form>";
echo '</table>';
echo $i; ?>
</body>
// HERE IS THE UPDATE SCRIPT // On clicking submit all rows are updated but i still cant achieve dis with ajax. UPDATE.PHP
$size = count($_POST['address']);
$i = 0;
while ($i < $size) {
$address= $_POST['address'][$i];
$id = $_POST['id'][$i];
$query = "UPDATE students SET address = '$address' WHERE id = '$id' LIMIT 1";
mysql_query($query) or die ("Error in query: $query");
echo "$address<br /><br /><em>Updated!</em><br /><br />";
++$i;
}
?>
HERE IS WHAT I HAVE TRIED ON AJAX
function update(){
var j=0;
while(j< <?php echo $i ; ?>){
var id=$("#id" + j);
var address=$("#address" + j);
$.ajax(
{
url:"update.php",
type:"post",
data:{id:id.val(),address:address.val()},
success:function(response)
{
}
});
}
ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED
