Minklet Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I am using a load and insert ajax query, which is here:http://www.9lessons.info/2009/05/insert-and-load-record-using-jquery-and.html Which works nicely, but I can't get it to work for multiple text inputs. I have scoured google for about 10hours and can't find something simple. I'd consider myself fairly good at figuring things out, but Ajax seems to have about a hundred different ways of doing the exact same thing and none of which I can see how to implement. This is what I have: var element = $(this); var promoter = $("#promoter").val(); var venue = $("#venue").val(); var eventlink = $("#eventlink").val(); var date = $("#date").val(); var dataString = 'content='+ promoter'&venue='+ venue'&eventlink='+ eventlink'&date='+ date'; $.ajax({ type: "GET", url: "demo_insert.php", data: dataString, cache: false, success: function(html){ and the html: <form method="post" name="form" action=""> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="500px"> <tr><td align="left"><div align="left"><h3>What are you doing?</h3></div></td></tr> <tr> <td style="padding:4px; padding-left:10px;" class="comment_box"> <input type="text" style="width:40px;font-size:14px; font-weight:bold" name="promoter" id="promoter" maxlength="15" /> <input type="text" style="width:40px;font-size:14px; font-weight:bold" name="venue" id="venue" maxlength="15" /> <input type="text" style="width:40px;font-size:14px; font-weight:bold" name="date" id="date" maxlength="15" /> <input type="text" style="width:40px;font-size:14px; font-weight:bold" name="eventlink" id="eventlink" maxlength="15" /> <input type="submit" value="Update" id="v" name="submit" class="comment_button" /> </td> </tr> </table> </form> I'm getting a 'missing ; before statement' error in firebug pointing to my datastring variable. This is driving me insane, if I could actually find some solid answers on google rather than a constant stream of contradictory examples I would be set. Any help please?

Minklet Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 Apologies, it was me being stupid and forgetting the +'s after each variable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
