Hi all, this is a really strange one. Not sure where I found the example code for this, but it has been working for me without an issue and I have it running multiple times on my site. But for some reason in this one instance it isn't working, and I keep checking everything and it all looks fine to me.
This is a part of an ajax form and on submit I want to refresh the selected note area with the content of what was entered. Everything runs fine, no errors, but the content never changes until I refresh the entire page (so the ajax response isn't working). Using firebug I can see the response is being returned to the browser properly, and I can see from the 'alert(id2)' that the id I am trying to write to is in the html document. [code] function getNotes(){$(".addNote").click(function(event) { var id = this.id; var posTop = event.pageY-130; var posLeft = event.pageX-130; $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "processes/addNote.php", data: id, success: function(response){ $("#addNoteForm").css({ position: 'absolute', top: posTop, left: posLeft }); $("#addNoteForm").fadeIn("slow").html(response); var id2 = id.replace(/&f=e/, ''); var id2 = id2.replace(/&f=d/, ''); var options = { target: '#addNoteForm', // target element(s) to be updated with server response success: showResponse }; // bind to the form's submit event $('#addNoteForm').submit(function() { // inside event callbacks 'this' is the DOM element so we first // wrap it in a jQuery object and then invoke ajaxSubmit $(this).ajaxSubmit(options); // !!! Important !!! // always return false to prevent standard browser submit and page navigation return false; }); // pre-submit callback function showRequest(formData, jqForm, options) { // formData is an array; here we use $.param to convert it to a string to display it // but the form plugin does this for you automatically when it submits the data var queryString = $.param(formData); // jqForm is a jQuery object encapsulating the form element. To access the // DOM element for the form do this: // var formElement = jqForm[0]; alert('About to submit: \n\n' + queryString); // here we could return false to prevent the form from being submitted; // returning anything other than false will allow the form submit to continue } // post-submit callback function showResponse(options) { // for normal html responses, the first argument to the success callback // is the XMLHttpRequest object's responseText property // if the ajaxSubmit method was passed an Options Object with the dataType // property set to 'xml' then the first argument to the success callback // is the XMLHttpRequest object's responseXML property // if the ajaxSubmit method was passed an Options Object with the dataType // property set to 'json' then the first argument to the success callback // is the json data object returned by the server $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "processes/addNote.php", data: id+"&f=r", success: function(response2){ $("#"+id2).html(response2); alert(id2); $("#addNoteForm").fadeOut("slow"); } }); } } }); }); }; [/code] Any ideas?
