I have encountered a problem, where I planned to get values with javascript which is from mysql.
What I am trying to do is, when you load a PHP page to edit info, you add a div using javascript, there will be a bunch of types to choose from, But I would like to do it through retrieve from database. But it seems doesn't work, so I went on with another type of code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
table {
width: 100%;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
table, td, th {
border: 1px solid black;
padding: 5px;
}
th {text-align: left;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$mysql_server_name="localhost";
$mysql_username ="root";
$mysql_password ="root";
$mysql_database ="master_db";
$conn =mysql_connect($mysql_server_name,$mysql_username,$mysql_password);
if (!$conn)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db($mysql_database,$conn);
$sql="SELECT * FROM `bopl_certification_type`";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
echo "<div class='span6 form-horizontal'><i class='icon-remove' onclick='removeDiv(this)'></i><div class='control-group'><label class='control- label'>Certificate Name: </label><div class='controls'><select style='width:250px' name='certType[]'>";
//To get option
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "<option value=$row[certName]>$row[certName]</option>";
}
//End of option
echo "</select><input type='text' class='input-xlarge' name='test' style='width:235px' name='fileInServ[]' readonly='readonly' /><input type='file' name='docupload[]' /></div><div class='control-group'><label class='control-label'>Issue date: </label><div class='controls'><input type='text' id='datepickerIs' name='certIsDate[]' placeholder='dd-mm-yyyy' class='comboDate' /></div></div><div class='control-group'><label class='control-label'>Expired date: </label><div class='controls'><input type='text' id='datepickerEx' name='certExDate[]' placeholder='dd-mm-yyyy' class='comboDate' /></div></div> </div>";
?>
</body>
</html>
That was the getuser.php and this is the index.html
<html>
<head>
<script>
function showUser() {
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
} else {
// code for IE6, IE5
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && xmlhttp.status == 200) {
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
xmlhttp.open("GET","getuser.php",true);
xmlhttp.send();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<select name="users" onclick="showUser()">
</select>
</form>
<br>
<div id="txtHint"><b>Person info will be listed here...</b></div>
</body>
</html>
This is the proper result that I wanted. But it seems that I tried to integrate into my existing codes. It doesn't work at all. Is there any other way around it?
