Edit: I found a solution to get the correct url. Post your solution in this thread .
Hi, I am having problems processing the form so that I can save my data in my MySQL database. I use Wordpress as a CMS.
I used this example: http://www.ryancoughlin.com/2008/11/04/use-jquery-to-submit-form
I am sure that the source of my problem is that I am using the wrong url in javascript. The error message returns only "undefined", and Firebug reports that the page did not detect 404 error.
So what will be the correct url? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is my site structure:
Mywebsite (folder)
sl_register.tpl.php
includes (folder)
storelocator (folder)
process_frm_store.php
frm_store.php
js (folder)
myscripts.js
And this is the logic of my site:
sl_register.tpl.php:
<?php
get_header();
include_once 'includes/storeLocator/frm_store.php';
get_footer();
?>
frm_store.php:
<form id="store_data_form" class="appnitro" method="post" action="">
<input id="store_active" name="store_active" type="hidden" value="pending" />
<input id="store_name" name="store_name" type="text" value=""/>
<input id="store_street1" name="store_street1" type="text" value="" />
<input id="saveForm" class="submitButton" type="submit" name="save" value="Save" />
</form>
process_frm_store.php:
<?php
$myDB = new DAL();
$myDB->connect();
if (isset($_POST['save']))
{
$formData = array(
"name"=> mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['store_name']),
"street1"=> mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['store_street1']),
"zipcode"=> mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['store_zipcode']));
$myDB->addNewStore($formData);
}
?>
myscripts.js:
jQuery.processForms = function()
{
jQuery('form#store_data_form').submit(function()
{
var store_name = 'Test store';
var store_street1 = 'Sesamy street';
var store_zipcode = '0574';
var dataString = 'name='+ store_name + '&street1=' + store_street1 + '&zipcode=' + store_zipcode;
jQuery.ajax(
{
type: "POST",
url: "process_frm_store.php",
data: dataString,
error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown)
{
alert(errorThrown);
jQuery('#suggestNewStore div.error').fadeIn();
},
success: function()
{
alert('It works!');
jQuery('#suggestNewStore div.success').fadeIn();
}
});
return false;
});
}
