I need a fresh pair of eyes to look at this code and tell me what's wrong with it.

I have done this a while back but lost the code. It worked back then. I am trying to recreate it but my memory isn't perfect.   It's basically a follow/unfollow button like twitter.  This is the main reference. http://jsfiddle.net/jakie8/ZECEN/

 

The php/mysql action queries do work if I call it through normal a href link; but for some reason, it's not being called through ajax. 

The jquery/ajax set variables do show up correctly when I test an alert with them inside.  So that works too.

 

I could really use fresh pair of eyes to see what I might have done wrong. 

 

Here is the index.php page.

<html>
	<head>
	<script src="js/jquery-1.11.0.min.js"></script>
	<script>
		$(function() {
			$(document).on('click','.followButton',function(e) {
				e.preventDefault();
				
				$button = $(this);
				if($button.hasClass('following')){
					
					//$.ajax(); Do Unfollow
					
					var unfollow 	=   $(this).attr('rel');
					var follower	=	$("#follower-id").val();
			
					$.ajax({
						type: "POST",
						url:  "actions.php",
						data: "unfollow="+unfollow+"follower="+follower+"&action=unfollow",
						success:function(data){
							
								$button.removeClass('following');
								$button.removeClass('unfollow');
								$button.text('+ Follow');
							
						}

					});
					
					
				} else {
					
					// $.ajax(); Do Follow
					
					var following 	=	$(this).attr('rel');
					var follower	=	$("#follower-id").val();
				
					$.ajax({
						type: "POST",
						url:  "actions.php",
						data: "following="+following+"follower="+follower+"&action=follow",
						success:function(data){
							
								$button.addClass('following');
								$button.text('Following');
							
						}

					});
				//	return false;
					
				}
			});

			$('button.followButton').hover(function(){
				 $button = $(this);
				if($button.hasClass('following')){
					$button.addClass('unfollow');
					$button.text('Unfollow');
				}
			}, function(){
				if($button.hasClass('following')){
					$button.removeClass('unfollow');
					$button.text('Following');
				}
			});
		});
	</script>
	</head>
	<body>
		<div class="container">
			<input type="hidden" id="follower-id" value="<?php echo $follower_userid; ?>">
			<button class="btn followButton following" rel="<?php echo $following_userid; ?>">+ Follow</button>
		</div>	
	</body>
</html>

And here is actions.php page.

require_once 'core/init.php';

if($action == "follow") {
	
	$following	= 	$_POST['following'];
	$follower	= 	$_POST['follower'];
	$date		=	date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
	
	$follow = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO followers(following_id, follower_id, date, active) VALUES(:following_id, :follower_id, :date, :active)");
	$follow->bindParam(':following_id', $following);
	$follow->bindParam(':follower_id', $follower);
	$follow->bindParam(':date', $date);
	$follow->bindValue(':active', 1);
	$follow->execute();

	

} else if($action == "unfollow") {
	
	$unfollow	= 	$_POST['unfollow'];
	$follower	= 	$_POST['follower'];
	$date		=	date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
	
	$unfollow = $db->prepare("UPDATE followers SET date = :date, active = :active WHERE following_id = :following_id AND follower_id = :follower_id");
	$unfollow->bindParam(':following_id', $unfollow);
	$unfollow->bindParam(':follower_id', $follower);
	$unfollow->bindParam(':date', $date);
	$unfollow->bindValue(':active', 0);
	$unfollow->execute();
	
} else {

	// echo 'no action';

}	
"unfollow="+unfollow+"follower="+follower+"&action=unfollow"
Missing a &

 

 

 

Ahh yes that's it. I knew it was something small.

 

Good thing I asked; otherwise I would have spent the entire night figuring this out.

 

Thank you.
