try a var_dump($_REQUEST) to see what's being submited.
-------- Original Message --------
i am using the following JQuery function to "successfully" POST data
to the user_submit.php file, its just that the php file is unable to
receive the data.
$(function() {
$("#submit_js").click(function() {
$.post("user_submit.php", {
comment: $("#comment").val()
});
});
});
upon finishing the Firebug consoloe shows this:
<html>
<body>
Your vote was successfully registered!any text but this
</body>
</html>
i am pasting the user_submit.php here:
<?php
$vote = $_REQUEST['vote'];
$aid = $vote;
//$comment = $_REQUEST['#comment'];
//$comment = print_r($_POST);
$comment = htmlspecialchars($_POST["comment"]);
//$comment = $_POST['comment'];
//echo htmlspecialchars($comment);
//$comment = $_POST['comment'];
//echo $comment;
// include configuration file
include('config.php');
// open database connection
$connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or die('ERROR:
Unable to connect!');
// select database
mysql_select_db($db) or die('ERROR: Unable to select database!');
// update vote counter
$query = "UPDATE answers SET acount = acount + 1 WHERE aid =
$vote";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$cadd = "INSERT INTO comments (comment,aid) VALUES ('$comment',
'$aid')";
mysql_query($cadd);
// close connection
mysql_close($connection);
// print success message
echo 'Your vote was successfully registered!';
echo $comment;
//print_r(array_count_value($comment));
?>
this is the HTML :
<div id="greetings">
You are voting out <b style="color:
#00b0de;" id=roadiename></b>. Care to explain why?<br/><br/>
<textarea name="textarea" id="comment"
cols="38" rows="7">textarea</textarea><br>
<a href="#" id="submit_js"><img
src="images/submit.gif" style="border: none; float:right; padding-top:
10px;padding-right: 10px;"/></a>
</div>
When I click on Submit, I can see in Firebug console that the data is
being POSTed. but i am not receiving that data in the php file. or
else i am not able to use it.
please help.
