Save a re-ordered list with Jquery Sortable to DB [SOLVED]
#1

Hi!

I'm working on a lightweight CMS and I need to store some datas to my DB. The datas are generated by Ajax with Jquery Sortable.

Actually, it's a list where you can drag and drop items to re-arrange the order.

Let me explain :

In my DB :

I have fields called : ID (the id :p) / order (which contains only numbers) / title (the title of the picture)

In my .js file :

Code:
$(function() {
    $( "#list" ).sortable({
        opacity: 0.6,
        cursor: 'move',
        tolerance: 'pointer',
        revert: true,
        items:'li',
        placeholder: 'state',
        forcePlaceholderSize: true,
        update: function(event, ui){
    
//send datas to controller ----------------
            $.ajax({
                url: "/codeigniter/index.php/admin/save_order",
                type: 'POST',
                data: {
                    'order': $( "#list" ).sortable('toArray'),
                },
                success: function (data) {
                    $("#test").html(data);
                }

            });
//-------------------------------                                
            }
                
        });

    $( "#sortable" ).disableSelection();
});

The Ajax request give me something like : Pic_0 [0], Pic_1 [1], Pic_2 [2], Pic_3 [3],
That's the order of the list. If I drag and drop a "Pic" the Array result change (example : Pic_2 [2], Pic_1 [1], Pic_0 [0], Pic_3 [3],)

Ok then in my controller :
Code:
function save_order()
    {    
        $order = $this->input->post('order');    
    }

And in the view :
Code:
<li id="&lt;?php echo $row->title."_".$i++; ?&gt;">My_item</li>


Alright the question is : How can I update the order in my DB? I'm a bit lost with all that informations so I just need a way to Update the field "order" in the DB with the order saved before.

Any help will be very very very appreciated! Thanks!
