php POST response
- by amit
I am making a POST to another php file that I want to render in the browser. so clearly, using jquery POST wont work, since it works through AJAX.
echo '<div class="showcase_URL"><a class="purl" name="'.$row->num.'" href="#">PROJECT URL</a></div>';
what I have till now in javascript is:
$(".showcase_URL a").click(function() {
//alert($(this).attr("name"));
var number = $(this).attr("name");
$.post(
"app-display.php",
{app: number},
function(data){
top.location.href = 'app-display.php';
});
});
what I have in app-display.php:
$query = 'SELECT num, title, thumb_url, url, type, cat, dated, details FROM app WHERE `num` = "$_POST[app]"';
but it is currently giving me a page without the contents of app-display.php. all the other fragments of the page are loading: header, footer etc.
the PHP Response (in Firebug) I am getting is the normal html of the page.
how should i do it?
