Sorry for the constant question!! I have a table that displays records of data from my database. To make life easier, I have make it editable using jquery so that a user can click right an area an edit right away without redirecting to a different page. A couple of questions.. how can i refine the below code so that when an area on the table with checkboxes and links is clicked, it will not respond/not editable? Also, the editing function does not fully work at the moment and im having problems trying to figure out where the problem is. The table responds to everything defined in the jquery below but does not update my database.
There is my jquery code edit.js
$(function() {
$('tbody').on('click','td',function() {
displayForm( $(this) );
});
});
function displayForm( cell ) {
var column = cell.attr('class'),
id = cell.closest('tr').attr('id'),
cellWidth = cell.css('width'),
prevContent = cell.text()
form = '<form action="javascript: this.preventDefault"><input type="text" name="newValue" value="'+prevContent+'" /><input type="hidden" name="id" value="'+id+'" />'+'<input type="hidden" name="column" value="'+column+'" /></form>';
cell.html(form).find('input[type=text]')
.focus()
.css('width',cellWidth);
cell.on('click', function(){return false});
cell.on('keydown',function(e) {
if (e.keyCode == 13) {//13 == enter
changeField(cell, prevContent);//update field
} else if (e.keyCode == 27) {//27 == escape
cell.text(prevContent);//revert to original value
cell.off('click'); //reactivate editing
}
});
}
function changeField( cell, prevContent ) {
cell.off('keydown');
var url = 'edit.php?edit&',
input = cell.find('form').serialize();
$.getJSON(url+input, function(data) {
if (data.success)
cell.html(data.value);
else {
alert("There was a problem updating the data. Please try again.");
cell.html(prevContent);
}
});
cell.off('click');
}
And in my edit.php I have the following:
<?php
include ("common.php");
if (isset($_GET['edit'])){
$column = $_GET['column'];
$id = $_GET['id'];
$newValue = $_GET["newValue"];
$sql = 'UPDATE compliance_requirement SET $column = :value WHERE ComplianceID = :id';
$stmt = $dbh ->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindParam(':value', $newValue);
$stmt->bindParam(':id', $id);
$response['success'] = $stmt->execute();
$response['value']=$newValue;
echo json_encode($response);
}?>
and finally my html..
<div class="compTable">
<table>
<thead><tr><th>Compliance Name</th><th>Compliance Goal</th><th>Compliance Description</th><th>Opions</th><th>Invite</th></tr></thead>
<tbody>
<?php
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM compliance_requirement';
$results = $db->query($sql);
$rows = $results->fetchAll();
foreach ($rows as $row) {
echo '<tr id="'.$row['ComplianceID'].'">';
echo '<td class="crsDesc">'.$row['ComplianceName'].'</td>
<td >'.$row['ComplianceGoal'].'</td>
<td >'.$row['ComplianceDescription'].'</td>
<td ><a href =inviteObstacle.php?action=invite&id=name1> InviteObstacle </a></td>
<td style="text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;"> <input type="checkbox" name="query_myTextEditBox">
</td>';
echo '</tr>';
}?>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
Your help is much appreciated. thanks in advance
