I need help with adding to a database. I want to call a javascript scrt from a button click method. The Javascript Script, I want to call upon a php file which contains some code that adds to a MySQL Database.
I literally tried over 20+ website and No help with the stuff.
If AJAX would be better Could you help me?
The Button Code:
<input type="button" value="favorites1" onClick="favfunct();">
The Javascript Code
function favfunct() {
var target = document.createElement( "script" );
target.setAttribute( "src", "php/addtofavorites.php" );
document.getElementsByTagName( "body" )[0].appendChild( target );`
}
The Php Code
<?php
echo "test successful"
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","root","student");
if ($_POST["get"] == 'runfunction')
echo "Works";
}
if ($_POST["action"] == 'favorites1'){
echo "Testing Was Successful"
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("tvid", $con);
$sql="INSERT INTO Persons (userid, davorites) VALUES
('1','$_POST[video0]')";
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con))
{
die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo "Your Video was Added To Your Favorites";
mysql_close($con)
}
?>
