PHP Beginner's Introduction to AJAX and MYSQL
The following example will demonstrate how a web page reads information from the database through AJAX:
First we need to create a table in the database
As shown in the figure below:
Then we write an html page, the code is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <meta charset="utf-8"> <head> <script> function showUser(str){ if (str==""){ document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=""; return; } if (window.XMLHttpRequest){ // IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari 浏览器执行代码 xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); }else{ // IE6, IE5 浏览器执行代码 xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function(){ if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200){ document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","demo.php?q="+str,true); xmlhttp.send(); } </script> </head> <body> <form> <select name="users" onchange="showUser(this.value)"> <option value="">Select a person:</option> <option value="1">Peter Griffin</option> <option value="2">Lois Griffin</option> <option value="3">Glenn Quagmire</option> <option value="4">Joseph Swanson</option> </select> </form> <br> <div id="txtHint"><b>Person info will be listed here.</b></div> </body> </html>
This code must be handed over to demo.php for processing
Note: showUser() The function will perform the following steps:
Check whether a user has been selected
Create an XMLHttpRequest object
Create a function that is executed when the server response is ready
Report to the server Send a request to the file on
Please pay attention to the parameter (q) added to the end of the URL (containing the contents of the drop-down list)
Below we write a deno.php file, the code is as follows:
<?php $q=$_GET["q"]; $con = mysqli_connect('localhost','root','root','test'); if (!$con){ die('Could not connect: ' . mysqli_error($con)); } mysqli_select_db($con,"ajax_demo"); $sql="SELECT * FROM user WHERE id = '".$q."'"; $result = mysqli_query($con,$sql); echo "<table border='1'> <tr> <th>Firstname</th> <th>Lastname</th> <th>Age</th> <th>Hometown</th> <th>Job</th> </tr>"; while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)){ echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $row['FirstName'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['LastName'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['Age'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['Hometown'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['Job'] . "</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; mysqli_close($con); ?>
Explanation: When a query is sent from JavaScript to a PHP file, what happens is:
1. PHP opens a connection to the MySQL database
2. Find the selected user
3. Create an HTML table, fill in the data, and send back the "txtHint" placeholder
Note: You need to copy this code to your own server and then run it See what kind of effect
# Database must be established
