I'm submitting a form using MySQL command inside a PHP file. I'm able to insert the data without any problem.
However, I also, at the same time, want to display the user a "Thank you message" on the same page so that he/she knows that the data has been successfully registered. On the other hand I could also display a sorry message in case of any error.
Therein lies my problem. I've written some lines in Javascript to display the message in the same page. However, I'm stuck on what (and how) should I check for success and failure.
I'm attaching my code below.
Can you please help me on this with your ideas?
Thanks AB
HTML Form tag:
<form id="info-form" method="POST" action="form-submit.php">
form-submit.php:
<?php
require("database-connect.php");
$name = $_POST['name'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$mobile = $_POST['mobile'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_details ".
"(name,email_id,mobile_number) ".
"VALUES ".
"('$name','$email','$mobile')";
mysql_select_db('db_info');
$retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn );
if(! $retval )
{
die('Could not enter data: ' . mysql_error());
return false;
}
echo "Entered data successfully
";
mysql_close($conn);
?>
submit-logic.js:
$(function ()
{
$('form').submit(function (e)
{
e.preventDefault();
if(e.target === document.getElementById("info-form"))
{
$.ajax(
{
type:this.method,
url:this.action,
data: $('#info-form').serialize(),
dataType: 'json',
success: function(response)
{
console.log(response);
if(response.result == 'true')
{
document.getElementById("thankyou_info").style.display = "inline";
$('#please_wait_info').hide();
document.getElementById("info-form").reset();
}
else
{
document.getElementById("thankyou_info").style.display = "none";
document.getElementById("sorry_info").style.display = "inline";
$('#please_wait_info').hide();
}
}
}
)};
});
}
