first, thx to everyone.. I am using 1.3 and i dont mind using POST instead of GET. seems to make more sense anyay.... so based on both of your answers I'll try
to use a form , sending with post and accept the data in my controller via request.. @ EUROMARK: so when i send the data with ajax to my controller, how should I receive it? with this->params? or $_POST???? why do you use Jquery instead of # ? do i need to import a specific jquery file to make that work? i got the jquery1.4.2 already thx :) On 13 Okt., 11:46, euromark <[email protected]> wrote: > use jquery .ajax() > this will work > > example: > > jQuery('.delAjax').click(function(e) { > e.preventDefault(); > var targeturl = jQuery(this).attr("href"); > var id = jQuery(this).parent('td').parent('tr'); > $.ajax({ > type: "post", url: targeturl, > //beforeSend: showRequest, //show loading just when > link is clicked > //complete: showResponse, //stop showing loading when > the process > is complete > success: function(html){ //so, if data is retrieved, > store it in > html > if (html == '') { > id.hide(); > } else { > alert(html); > } > } > }); > }); > > On 13 Okt., 11:17, Michael T <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I had similar problems like yours and I found that using Firebug to > > debug what was being sent back to the server via Javascript was *very* > > helpful.
