I need help in this PHP Ajax updating mysql database using PDO. I wanted to update the database if a user checks the checkbox. Below is my code:
JS:
$('input[name=product_new]').click(function(){
var chkbox_id = $(this).attr('alt');
var chkbox_selected = $(this).is(':checked');
if(chkbox_selected == true)
{
chkbox_selected = "checked";
}
else
{
chkbox_selected = "uncheck";
}
$.post({
url: "../products_listing.php",
type: "POST",
data: {product_id: chkbox_id, product_new: chkbox_selected},
cache: false,
success: function(){}
});
});
PHP page with PDO to update database:
$id = $_POST['product_id'];
$product_new = $_POST['product_new'];
if(isset($_POST['product_new']))
{
try
{
$query = "UPDATE productinfo SET new_arrival=? WHERE id=?";
$stmt_new_chkbox = $conn->prepare($query);
$stmt_new_chkbox->bindParam(1, $product_new, PDO::PARAM_STR);
$stmt_new_chkbox->bindParam(2, $id, PDO::PARAM_INT);
$stmt_new_chkbox->execute();
}
catch(PDOException $e)
{
echo 'ERROR: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
}
It was working when I use mysql but now I've changed it to use PDO, it won't work anymore. I can't find where went wrong. Thanks in advance guys.
Below is the old code from mysql_:
$id = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['product_id']);
$product_new = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['product_new']);
if(isset($_POST['product_new']))
{
$upt_new=mysql_query("update products_list set new_arrival='$product_new' where id='$id'");
}
Ok! I know what's wrong already. The damn directory path. I took out ../ and it works! Kinda weird though.
Because my js file is in JS folder and products_listing.php is outside of the js folder. Isn't it supposed to be ../products_listing.php?
Can anyone tell me why it's not working which it is supposed to be?
Thanks in advance guys!
