  1. POJavaScript to PHP for Popup Window Content
    text
    copied!<p>I have a map with numerous markers on it. </p> <p><strong>I need help connecting my Javascript with my PHP file so I can pull the relevant content from the database and put it inside the div of a popup window.</strong> The map and the popups work well, they open, but I just don't know how to insert content from the database into the div #popupcontent.</p> <p>Here is part of the JavaScript:</p> <pre><code> function showPopup(id, leftbul, topbul){ map.find(settings.popupSelector).fadeOut(); var boxid = '#' + id + '-box'; $(boxid).fadeIn(); $(settings.popupCloseSelector).click(function(){ $(this).parent().fadeOut() }); } </code></pre> <p>The JavaScript/Ajax references a seperate HTML file where the popup markers are recorded. Each marker / popup has the following HTML, one after each other in the same file. In this instance the id references the land parcel identified as 97. </p> <pre><code>&lt;a href="javascript:void(0)" id="97" class="bullet" style="color: rgb(0,0,0);font-size: 13px;" rel="222-156"&gt;97&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div class="popup" id="97-box" style="top:158px;left:220px;"&gt; &lt;h3&gt;97&lt;/h3&gt; &lt;div class="popupcontent"&gt; &lt;p&gt;Insert my database content here &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;a class="close" href="javascript:void(0)"&gt;Close&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>I believe I need to insert something like this in the JavaScript, but I'm not getting it to work. Do you think you can help me here?</p> <pre><code>$.get("popup.php", (id), function( data ) { var content = $( data ).find( '#content' ); $( "#popupcontent" ).empty().append( content ); } </code></pre> <p>This is the server side PHP file:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $id=$_GET["id"]; // Connects to your Database mysql_connect("mysql.url.com", "username", "password") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("database_name") or die(mysql_error()); $data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM inventory WHERE lot_number = '".$id."'";) or die(mysql_error()); Print "&lt;table border cellpadding=3 font-size:8px width:200px&gt;"; while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $data )) { Print "&lt;tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Lot number:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_number'] . "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; "; Print "&lt;th&gt;Sales Status:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_status'] . "&lt;/td&gt; "; Print "&lt;th&gt;Model Built:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['model'] . "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt; "; Print "&lt;th&gt;Lot Size:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_size'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Frontage:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_frontage'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Depth:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_depth'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Premium:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_premium'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Features:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_features'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Restrictions:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_restrictions'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; Print "&lt;th&gt;Move-in Date:&lt;/th&gt; &lt;td&gt;".$info['lot_move_date'] . " &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; } Print "&lt;/table&gt;"; ?&gt; </code></pre>
