refresh page after ajax request and after client-side removal of DOM element

[stijn0713]

How can i reload the page in this jquery function?

 

 $(document).ready(function(){        
$('table td a.delete3').click(function(){                
var del_id = $(this).parent().attr('id');        
var info = 'del_option_id=' + del_id;
if(confirm("Zeker dat je deze optie met id " + del_id + " wilt verwijderen?")){

$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "deleteActies.php",
data: info,
success: function(){
}
});
$(this).parent().remove();        
}
return false;
});
});

 

First the ajax call should be finished, then the element (an option belonging to a question) should be removed --> $(this).parent().remove() and then the page should be reloaded.

One major benefit to using Ajax is that you don't need to reload the page to change the data it contains.

 

Why are you using Ajax in the first place if you intend to reload the page?

aha

 

i managed it, but the confirm alert won't work: probably something with the quotations...

 

$content .= '<a href="deleteActies.php?del_option_id='.$row_options['ID'].' onclick="javascript:return confirm("'.'Are you sure'.'")">'

Please remove the javascript: bit from the onclick event, it does not belong there at all.

 

In fact, the only use it had was ages ago, when people would use it in the href attribute to emulate the onclick event. Why, I still don't know. It was as redundant then as it is now.
