AJAX can be used for interactive communication with a database.
Customer info will be listed here...
function showCustomer(str) {
var xhttp;
if (str == "") {
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML = "";
return;
}
xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML = this.responseText;
}
};
xhttp.open("GET", "getcustomer.php?q="+str, true);
xhttp.send();
} The showCustomer() function does the following:
- Check if a customer is selected
- Create an XMLHttpRequest object
- Create the function to be executed when the server response is ready
- Send the request off to a file on the server
- Notice that a parameter (q) is added to the URL (with the content of the dropdown list)
The AJAX Server Page #
The page on the server called by the JavaScript above is a PHP file called “getcustomer.php”.
The source code in “getcustomer.php” runs a query against a database, and returns the result in an HTML table:
<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("servername", "username", "password", "dbname");
if($mysqli->connect_error) {
exit('Could not connect');
}
$sql = "SELECT customerid, companyname, contactname, address, city, postalcode, country
FROM customers WHERE customerid = ?";
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $_GET['q']);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->store_result();
$stmt->bind_result($cid, $cname, $name, $adr, $city, $pcode, $country);
$stmt->fetch();
$stmt->close();
echo "<table>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<th>CustomerID</th>";
echo "<td>" . $cid . "</td>";
echo "<th>CompanyName</th>";
echo "<td>" . $cname . "</td>";
echo "<th>ContactName</th>";
echo "<td>" . $name . "</td>";
echo "<th>Address</th>";
echo "<td>" . $adr . "</td>";
echo "<th>City</th>";
echo "<td>" . $city . "</td>";
echo "<th>PostalCode</th>";
echo "<td>" . $pcode . "</td>";
echo "<th>Country</th>";
echo "<td>" . $country . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo "</table>";
?>
