PHP + AJAX Login issues

[james182]

i'm trying to get this ajax login script to work. getting no response from ajax.

 

Please if someone can fix it, that would be great.

 

jquery.js:

/***************************************
* LOGIN AJAX
***************************************/
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#errorConsole').hide();

$('form[name=admin_login]').submit(function() {
	$('#errorConsole').slideUp();

	$.post('../login.php', { username: $('[name=username]').val(), password: $('[name=password]').val() },

	function(data) {
		if(data.success) 
		{
			location.href = data.redirect;
		} 
		else 
		{
			$('#errorConsole').html(data.message).slideDown();
		}
	}, 'json');

	return false;
});
});

 

login.php:

if($_REQUEST['action'] == "login"){
	if($log->login("logon", $_REQUEST['username'], $_POST['password']) == true){
		//do something on successful login
		$data['success'] = true;
		$data['redirect'] = '#';
	}else{
		//do something on FAILED login
		echo 'WRONG ... ';
		$data['success'] = false;
		$data['message'] = 'Oops';
	}

	echo json_encode($data);
}

 

Index.php:

<div class="box box-50 altbox">
		<div class="boxin">
			<div class="header">
				<h3><img src="_css/img/logo-login.png" alt="CMS Admin" /></h3>
				<ul>
					<li><a href="#" class="active">login</a></li><!-- .active for active tab -->
					<li><a href="#">lost password</a></li>
				</ul>
			</div>

			<FORM id="'.$formname.'" class="'.$formclass.'" method="post" name="'.$formname.'" action="'.$formaction.'" >
			<!-- Default forms (table layout) -->
				<div class="inner-form">

					<div id="errorConsole" class="msg msg-error"></div>

					<table cellspacing="0">

    * Notify me of replies.
						<tr>
							<th><label for="username">Username:</label></th>
							<td><input class="txt" type="text" id="username" name="username" value="demo" /></td>
						</tr>
						<tr>
							<th><label for="password">Password:</label></th>
							<td><input class="txt pwd" type="password" id="password" name="password" value="demos" /></td><!-- class error for wrong filled inputs -->
						</tr>
						<tr>
							<th></th>
							<td class="tr proceed">
								<input id="action" value="login" type="hidden" name="action">
								<input class="button" type="submit" value="Log in" />
							</td>
						</tr>
					</table>
				</div>
			</form>
		</div>
	</div>

Well thats just it i'm not. nothing happens i should get a response either successful or failed. not getting anything.

Are you debugging the process using firebug? if not, you should be.

You'll want to give us an error to look at where the problem is occuring - don't think many forum goers want to check your syntax for a missing bracket etc..

 

As thorpe said try using firebug, the plug-in for firefox. Are you sure it is connecting to the database correctly? If you have mysql errors off, it could be an issue.

 

 

Anyway, anymore information you can provide will help you get an answer a lot. Debug/break it down and try work out what is working in the script and what is not.

It all looks fine from a syntax point of view, a few things to check are:

 

[*]is the login.php form one directory up?

[*]in the login.php, if its sucessfull the data.redirect will be a #, so it wont actually take you anywhere, should this be the name of a page (i.e home.php)

[*]also check that $forname etc has what you expect in there, else the bindings wont work
