I am trying to get my form for checking if a username exist in mysql database. It looks like the javascript is working. I have added username "tester" in my database, but I still get a message that the username is available, when I try to add that name. My db connection is working fine on my other pages
Can anybody see what is wrong?
dbconfic.inc.php
<?php
$db_host = "localhost";
$db_user = "root";
$db_pass = "root";
$db_name = "test";
// connection:
$mysqli = new mysqli($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass , $db_name);
// tjek conenction:
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s
", mysqli_connect_error());
}
// vi kører utf-8 på connection:
$mysqli->set_charset("utf-8");
?>
index.php
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#username').keyup(function() {
var usercheck = $(this).val();
$('#usercheck').html('<img src="loading.gif" width="150" />');
$.post("check.php", {user_name: usercheck} , function(data)
{
if (data.status == true)
{
$('#usercheck').parent('div').removeClass('has-error').addClass('has-success');
} else {
$('#usercheck').parent('div').removeClass('has-success').addClass('has-error');
}
$('#usercheck').html(data.msg);
},'json');
});
});
</script>
