So in this tutorial I implemented. Download the script just you have to change the database details. Take a look live demo

{
$(".comment_submit").click(function(){
var element = $(this);
var Id = element.attr("id");
var test = $("#textboxcontent"+Id).val();
var dataString = 'textcontent='+ test + '&com_msgid=' + Id;
if(test=='')
{
alert("Please Enter Some Text");
}
else
{
$("#flash"+Id).show();
$("#flash"+Id).fadeIn(400).html('<img src="ajax-loader.gif" align="absmiddle"> loading.....');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "insertajax.php",

  9. Hi,

    I love the script, still trying to understand it 100%. I have a table in my database for comments which includes something like (comment_id, user_id, comment, date).

    It appears that this script shows the comment after you post it; however, it will not post to my comment table in my database, which obviously means the comment disappears when you leave the page and return.

    I am new to javascript and ajax, slightly better with php... any help with this problem will probably save me some hairs on my head.

    Thank you!

  10. Good stuff, but I would like to know how to create the same thing with the ability to submit by hitting the enter key rather than clicking a button.

  11. I'm using this script for handle all my forms on the whole webpage. It suddently should more dynamic to grab all keys and values from the form, you have submit, in one time.

    For example:
    var dataString = "all data i get from $(this)";

    how can i grab all fields + values from the form at one time and put it in: var dataString?

    ReplyDelete
  12. Hmm, this doesn't seem to be working correctly for me - it seems to be submitting the form x number of times (where x is the number of forms on the page).

    Any ideas?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Works great thanks.

    I'm curious about the id="1", the definiton of id attribute requires:
    * Must begin with a letter A-Z or a-z
    * Can be followed by: letters (A-Za-z), digits (0-9), hyphens ("-"), underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods (".")
    * Values are case-sensitive

    Use it inside the function which processes the request and sends it to ajax.

    $sql = mysql_query("INSERT INTO comments (msg_id, comment, com_date) VALUES('$com_msgid', '$comment', now())") or die (mysql_error());

  86. Wouldn't you want to use an array? The inputs would be in the order they were serialized and one more input text.

    ReplyDelete
  87. In order to submit multiple forms at the same time you'll need a function that invokes the submit events of each form.The jQuery plugin add an event listener to the onsubmit event of the form(s) you specify.

    if(!$i)
    echo "Error adding messages!";
    else
    echo "Your comments added success!";
