Call a PHP Script and after that reload

Hello,

I need an Ajax Call witch starts an PHP Script. With the PHP Script i like to start an import.

If the import is done i like to reload my datatable (that is allready working).
How can I start the php script and work with parameter from the php-script (true - false)?

buttons: [   
            {
                text: 'Import CSV',
                action: function ( e, dt, node, config ) {
                   // PHP -Script for Import
                   var success = Call PHP-Script for Import
                   if (success = true) {
                        dt.ajax.reload();
                   }
                   else {
                       alert(Import - Error)
                   }
                }
            }

Thanks for help!
Thomas

    Why not just use the jQuery AJAX functionality?

  • bill_Tombill_Tom Posts: 19Questions: 4Answers: 0

    I tried it with Jquery AJAX:

    var jqxhr = $.ajax("table.krempel.php1?try=1")

    But I need the response from the php script. The value or boolean...

    You would check the value returned from the PHP script using the jQuery success callback. This is the jQuery documentation for its$.ajax function.

    Hello,
    i checked the documentation but it doesn't work.
    I do not get the response from the php script.

    var jqxhr = $.ajax({
       type:"GET" ,
       url:"table.krempel.php" ,
       data: "try=1231" ,
       async: false ,
       success: function(data) {
             if(data == 1){
                     alert(data);
             }
             else {
                    alert('???' + data);
             }
       }
}) ;

    PHP

    if(isset($_GET['try'])){
     return 1;
}

    Where is my mistake?

    Thx for your help.

    Answer ✓

    You should echo the response rather than attempting to return it. You want the PHP script to output the data that the client-side should see.
