I am a rookie PHP and MongoDB developer.
I have created a PHP web project with an HTML page that contains an 'Add' button. The name of the page is awards.html. The awards.html file contains its counterpart JavaScript file, awards.js. A code is executed in this js file when the Add button is clicked. This code sends an AJAX call to a PHP class elsewhere in the project named, example.php which contains code to execute a function called, clickFunction() in an Awards.php file, which returns a JSON array to the awards.html page.
The source code of my files is given as follows:
Awards.html
<div class = "divbottom">
<div id="divAddAward">
<button class="btn" onclick="onrequest();">Add</button>
</div>
</div>
awards.js
function onrequest() {
$("#divAddAward").load('branding/dataaccess/example.php'); //The full path of the example.php file in the web root
alert('Test');
$.post(
'branding/dataaccess/example.php'
).success(function(resp) {
json = $.parseJSON(resp);
alert(json);
});
}
example.php
<?php
foreach (glob("App/branding/data/*.php") as $filename) {
include $filename;
}
$class = new Awards();
$method = $class->clickFunction();
echo json_encode($method);
Awards.php
<?php
class Awards extends Mongo_db {
//put your code here
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
}
public function clickFunction() {
$array = array(
'status' => '1'
);
return $array;
}
}
The problem here is that the program is throwing me an error in example.php, Class 'Awards' not found, despite adding the for
loop to include all the files. The Awards.php file is located in App/branding/data/
path and example.php is located in App/branding/dataaccess/
path.
Can anyone please tell me where exactly am I going wrong? Replies at the earliest will be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
