Got the jquery to work! seemed to be missing the url helper for the base_url I think so I added the full url and voila! form seems to work correctly as in submitting and jquery, although two things: it doesn't seem to take the information through as it keeps adding 0, 0, 0, 0 as opposed to the things I submit in the form. and next it doesn't refresh the page afterwards? probably something jquery missing?
insert function in model:
Code:
function entry_insert(){
$this->load->helper('form');
$this->load->helper('html');
$this->load->database();
$data = array(
'title'=>$this->input->post('title'),
'url'=>$this->input->post('url'),
'jscore'=>$this->input->post('jscore'),
'kscore'=>$this->input->post('kscore')
);
$this->db->insert('movies',$data);
}
this is the controller function which gets called by the jquery loading the model:
Code:
public function addmovie()
{
$this->load->model('Movie_model', '', TRUE);
$this->Movie_model->entry_insert();
return true;
}
html form inside view:
Code:
<form class="form-signin" method="post" id="form-signin">
<h4 class="form-signin-heading">Add a Movie</h4>
<input type="text" class="input-block-level" placeholder="Movie Title" id="title">
<input type="text" class="input-block-level" placeholder="URL" id="url">
<input type="number" class="" min="1" max="100" placeholder="Jamies Score" id="jscore">
<input type="number" class="" min="1" max="100" placeholder="Kellys Score" id="kscore">
<button class="btn btn-large btn-primary" type="submit">Add</button>
</form>
and finally jquery:
Code:
[removed]
$(function(){
$("#form-signin").submit(function(){
dataString = $("#form-signin").serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://domain.com/xx/index.php/welcome/addmovie",
data: dataString,
success: function(data){
alert('Successful!');
}
});
return false; //stop the actual form post !important!
});
});
[removed]
can anyone spot what I am doing wrong? and maybe help my jquery refresh?
