I have a script that is sending data to a PHP file when the user clicks on an , but it's not working properly..
Here's my jQuery:
jQuery( document ).ready(function( $ ) {
$('.rve_button a').click(function(){
console.log("You clicked it");
var del_id = $(this).attr('id');
$.ajax(
type: "POST",
url: "/wp-content/themes/vantage-child/parts/deleteticker.php",
data: "id="+del_id,
success: function(msg){
$(this).closest('tr').remove();
});
});
});
});
The HTML & PHP:
if ($vars['watch']) {
echo "<td class=\"rve_button\">
<a href=\"javascript:void(0);\" id=\"".$stocks[$searchresults]['ticker']."\" class=\"delete tooltip\" title=\"Remove from this watch list\">
<i class=\"icon-remove\"></i>
</a>
</td>
";
}
The error being returned is this:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token :
What is wrong with my ajax call? Why would it be throwing this error? If it matters, this is in Wordpress.
