I have a little personal webapp that I'm working on. I have a link that, when clicked, is supposed to make an ajax call to a php that is supposed to delete that info from a database. For some unknown reason, it won't actually delete the
row from the database. I've tried everything I know, but still nothing. I'm sure it's something incredibly easy... Here are the scripts involved.
Database output:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM bookmark_app";
foreach ($dbh->query($sql) as $row)
{
echo '<div class="box" id="',$row['id'],'"><img src="images/avatar.jpg" width="75" height="75" border="0" class="avatar"/>
<div class="text"><a href="',$row['url'],'">',$row['title'],'</a><br/>
</div>
/*** Click to delete ***/
<a href="?delete=',$row['id'],'" class="delete">x</a></div>
<div class="clear"></div>';
}
$dbh = null;
Ajax script:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("a.delete").click(function(){
var element = $(this);
var noteid = element.attr("id");
var info = 'id=' + noteid;
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "includes/delete.php",
data: info,
success: function(){
element.parent().eq(0).fadeOut("slow");
}
});
return false;
});
});
Delete code:
include('connect.php');
//delete.php?id=IdOfPost
if($_GET['id']){
$id = $_GET['id'];
//Delete the record of the post
$delete = mysql_query("DELETE FROM `db` WHERE `id` = '$id'");
//Redirect the user
header("Location:xxxx.php");
}
