I am currently creating a system where it has to be possible to check/uncheck a checkbox. Everytime it changes status I need jQuery to make an AJAX call to a page, that updates the database.
How can I do this?
For example you can do it like this:
First you have to look if the checkbox is checked:
$(#yourSelector).live(click, function(){
var id = parseInt($(this).val(), 10);
if($(this).is(:checked)) {
// checkbox is checked -> do something
} else {
// checkbox is not checked -> do something different
}
});
You can load specific content via Ajax:
$.ajax({
type: POST,
dataType: xml,
url: path/to/file.php,
data: function=loadContent&id= + id,
success: function(xml) {
// success function is called when data came back
// for example: get your content and display it on your site
}
});
