AJAX can be used to communicate interactively with the database.

AJAX Database Example

The following example will demonstrate how a web page reads information from the database through AJAX:

Explanation of examples - MySQL database

In the above example, the database table we use is as follows:

Explanation of examples - HTML page

When the user selects a user in the drop-down list above, the name "showUser()" will be executed " The function. This function is triggered by the "onchange" event:

<html>
<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","getuser.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>

showUser() function will perform the following steps:

· Create a function that executes when the server response is ready Content)

PHP file

The server page called above through JavaScript is a PHP file named "getuser.php".

The source code in "getuser.php" runs a query against the MySQL database and returns the results in an HTML table:

<?php
$q=$_GET["q"];
$con = mysqli_connect('localhost','peter','abc123','my_db');
if (!$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 the query is sent from JavaScript to the PHP file , will happen:

1. PHP opens a connection to the MySQL database

2. Find the selected user

Create an HTML table, fill in the data, and send back "txtHint " Placeholder
