jquery problam

[eluser]A.M.F[/eluser]
i have articles' list that i echo in one page.
after the list i have a block and inside the block i want to load each article with jQuery so i have this JS script:

Code:

$(document).ready(function() {
                          
    $("#msg_list a[@class='msg']").click(function(){
              $.post("<?=site_url_rel("profile/pm/6")?>", {msg_list: $(this).html()}, function(xml) {
            $("#the_msg").html(
                $("test", xml).text()
            );
        });
                            
        return false;
    });

});

this is my HTML:

Code:

<div id="the_msg" style="float: left; border:1px #000 solid; display:block; width:60%; margin:5px; padding:5px;">
*** ARTICLE's CONTENT BLOCK ****
</div>
&lt;!-- articles' list --&gt;
<div id="msg_list">
    <a href="#" class="msg">test</a>
</div>

and finally, that's my pm function in the controller:

Code:

function pm($pm_id = '')
{
        // -- check data: --
    $pm_id = $this->uri->segment(3, TRUE);
    if ((!is_numeric($pm_id)) || ($pm_id == '')) show_error('ההודעה לא נמצאה');
    $pm_id = htmlspecialchars($pm_id, ENT_QUOTES);

    // --- get message --->
    $query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM `messages` WHERE `msg_id`='{$pm_id}'");
    if ($query->num_rows == 0) show_error('ההודעה לא נמצאה');
    $row = $query->row();
        
    $title     = $row->msg_title;
    $content = $row->msg_content;
    // ---------------->

    $xml = "<msg_list><test>12</test></msg_list>";
    header('Content-type: text/xml');
    echo $xml;
}

the result is this: when i click on the link - nothing happens.
why?

Test this:

Code:

$(document).ready(function() {
                          
    $(".msg").click(function(){
              $.post("<?=site_url_rel("profile/pm/6")?>", {msg_list: $(this).html()}, function(xml) {
            $("#the_msg").html(
                $("test", xml).text()
            );
        });
                            
        return false;
    });

});

Try it with html output

Code:

// controller
function pm($pm_id = '')
{
        // -- check data: --
    $pm_id = $this->uri->segment(3, TRUE);
    if ((!is_numeric($pm_id)) || ($pm_id == '')) show_error('ההודעה לא נמצאה');
    $pm_id = htmlspecialchars($pm_id, ENT_QUOTES);

    // --- get message --->
    $query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM `messages` WHERE `msg_id`='{$pm_id}'");
    if ($query->num_rows == 0) show_error('ההודעה לא נמצאה');
    $row = $query->row();
        
    $title     = $row->msg_title;
    $content = $row->msg_content;
    // ---------------->

    $xml = "<msg_list><test>12</test></msg_list>";
    //header('Content-type: text/xml');
    echo $xml;
}
// javascript
$(document).ready(function() {
                          
    $("#msg_list a[@class='msg']").click(function(){
              $.post("&lt;?=site_url_rel("profile/pm/6")?&gt;", {msg_list: $(this).html()}, function(xml) {
            $("#the_msg").html(xml);
        });
                            
        return false;
    });

});

Do you get a result?

xwero - may the force be with you! - it worked!!

buuuttt (and there is always a but huh?)-
i have an encoding problam, and instead of printing what i want (the letters in my language), it prints "??????" (question marks) - altough the files are saved in the same encode foramt and in the HTML there is an encoding meta and in my DB it's also fine.

why is that?

try to add the header

Code:

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=windows-1252');

With the charset that shows your language.

[quote author="xwero" date="1204222256"]try to add the header

just as easy as that.
many thanks, i appreciate that

have you tried using firebug(with firefox)? I've found firebug is very helpfull when trying to debug these wonderfully formatted jQuery problems.
