Hi I have the following code which I am trying to adapt to make sure that when Like is clicked by a user who is logged in, then only one request is sent in a predetermined period of time that can be adjusted i.e Like can be clicked and a request sent only once every 5 minutes. There must be a javascript function I can use but I can't figure it out.
index.php:
<?php
include 'init.php';
include 'connect.php';
?>
<!doctype html>
<html>
<body>
<?php
$userid = $_SESSION['user_id'];
echo '<a class="like" href="#" onclick="like_add(', $userid,');">Like</a>';
?>
<script type ="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.11.1.min.js"></script>
<script type ="text/javascript" src="like.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
connect.php:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "DB";
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
?>
init.php:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['user_id']='1';
$userid = $_SESSION['user_id'];
include 'connect.php';
include 'like.php';
?>
like.js:
function like_add(userid) {
$.post('like_add.php', {userid:userid}, function(data) {
if (data == 'success'){
add_like($userid);
} else {
alert(data);
}
});
}
like.php:
<?php
function add_like($userid) {
include 'connect.php';
$stmt = $conn->prepare("INSERT INTO clicks (user) VALUES (?)");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $userid);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt = $conn->prepare("SELECT max(id) FROM clicks WHERE user=?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $userid);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($click);
$stmt->fetch();
echo $click;
$stmt->close();
}
?
like_add.php
<?php
include 'init.php';
if (isset($userid)) {
$userid = $userid;
add_like($userid);
}
?>
