Hi guys,
im trying to send hidden field value's using ajax so that I dont need to refresh the page. I do have this functionality working but one of my variables requires to be updated every time that I press the "next page" link (offset +15)
I found some javascript code which apparently should be able to achieve this. The javascript variable does update (itterates +15 on link click - verified by doing an alert(document.jax.offset.value) but the hidden field value does not pass the updated value when posted.
any idea's guys?
My hidden form code
Code:
echo '<form id="jax" name="jax" method="post">';
echo '<input type="hidden" id="player" value="'.$player.'"></input>';
echo '<input type="hidden" id="link" value="'.$link.'"></input>';
echo '<input type="hidden" id="genre" value="'.$genre.'"></input>';
echo '<input type="hidden" id="offset" name="offset" value="0"></input>';
echo '<a href="#" id="back" onclick="backpage()" >Back</a>';
echo '<a href="#" id="forward" onclick="addpage()">Forward</a><<br>';
echo '</form>';
javascript functions to add 15 & subract 15 to the offset hidden field ( back + add links)
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
addpage = function(){ document.jax.offset.value = document.jax.offset.value*1 + 15 ;
return true;}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
backpage = function(){ document.jax.offset.value = document.jax.offset.value*1 - 15 ;
return true;}
</script>
my javascript file which passes the variables
Code:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
var link = jQuery("#link").val();
var player = jQuery("#player").val();
var offset = jQuery("#offset").val();
jQuery("#forward").click(function(){
jQuery.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: '/wordpress/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php',
data: {
action: 'sfunction',
link: link,
player: player,
offset: offset,
},
success: function(data, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest){
jQuery("#div").html('');
jQuery("#div").append(data);
},
error: function(MLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown){
alert(errorThrown);
}
});
});
});
any idea's guys? as I said all the variables do pass over but the "offset" value is always passed over as "0" even though the local javascript variables does indeed increment when the "addpage" link is clicked
