Passing variables with jquery?

[Xtremer360]

I'm trying to figure out with jquery how I can pass a variable with my jquery code if that's the way I need to do it. The variable I'm wanting to pass is the id of of the menu that way it will have the menu id when it goes to the menuitems page. which I still technically need to get out of the db in my SELECT statement but I can do that. Do I pass it in the a link or do I put it somewhere in the jquery code?

 

<?php 
			        while ( $row = mysqli_fetch_array ( $result, MYSQL_ASSOC ) ) {
                          echo '
                          <tr>
                          <td><input type=checkbox class=checkbox /></td>
					  <td>' . $row['menuname'] . '</a></td>
                          <td><a href=# id="menuitems" title="' . $row['menuname'] . ' Structure Items">Menu Items</a></td>
					  <td>' . $row['name'] . '</a></td>
					  <td class=last>' . $row['datecreated'] . '</td>
					  </tr>';
                        }
                    ?>

 

 

<script>
   $(document).ready(function() {
        $('a', $('td')).click(function() {
            $('#content').load('mods/' + $(this).attr('id') + '.php');
        });
        
    });
</script>

Its not clear what variable your wanting to pass, but using load(), the simplest way is probably just to attach it to the url....

 

<script>
   $(document).ready(function() {
        $('a', $('td')).click(function() {
            $('#content').load('mods/' + $(this).attr('id') + '.php?id='$(this).attr('title'));
        });
    });
</script>

 

You could also use the second argument, though it doesn't really matter, both ways will use GET and your data will show up within the $_GET array.

 

I'm sure I've said it before but you really should take a good look at the jQuery manual. http://api.jquery.com/load

I've been glancing through it periodically but didn't see anything that would help.

 

I did try to use what you gave me with a small change from title to id and  after I did, it wouldn't load anything.

 

Here's the full file. Maybe there's something

You had an extra }); at the end plus you where missing the concatination operator (I was in my last post too).

 

$(document).ready(function() {
        $('a', $('div#addform')).click(function() {
            $('#innerContent').load('forms/' + $(this).attr('id') + '.php');
        });
        $('a', $('td')).click(function() {
            $('#content').load('mods/' + $(this).attr('id') + '.php?id=' + $(this).attr('id'));
        });
    });

 

Working with Javascript you really need to get firebug going.

I have FireBug and use it for css but as far as understanding the uses and abilities for things like jquery and/or jquery I don't know.

[Xtremer360]

Testing and its still not doing anything. I understand it now however I don't understand why its not atleast loading the page.

 

<script>
   $(document).ready(function() {
        $('a', $('div#addform')).click(function() {
            $('#innerContent').load('forms/' + $(this).attr('id') + '.php');
        });
        $('a', $('td')).click(function() {
            $('#content').load('mods/' + $(this).attr('id') + '.php?id=' + $(this).attr('id'));
        });        
    });
</script>

What is firebug saying?

[Xtremer360]

That's just it as far as looking at it for javascript type stuff to debug I don't know what I should be looking for. I'll upload the page.

Look at the menu structures link which is under the site admin drop down on the left.

Open firebig console.

 

You get:

Which means?

[trq]

Obviously its not getting the file name from wherever its meant to be. I don't really have much time to look through the code, I'm at work.

Actually, you have the title on the a attribute don't you? Not the td? Within that piece of code 'this' refers to the td element, After all, that was what was clicked.

 

I really think you should take some time out to learn some jQuery basics. We can't really be expected to walk you through every detail.
