AJAX Beginner: If then statement
- by dassouki
In menu.html, I have my menu items(a href links), let's call them, menu_1, menu_2, ....
In map.js displays the contents of a map, it calls an API to display some layers and maps. I have a lot of maps to show but i only want to call the api once.
Using AJAX, I was wondering if it's possible to have an if/then or select/case in my js, so that if menu_1 is clicked, then implement map_1 etc. without having the page to reload. The only way I thought I could do this is using Post/get .. so when you click on menu_1 it takes you to page.php?page_id=1 . JS will read that and display the map.
I'm new to JS and AJAX so please feel free to butcher me
