value is not passed by javascript function to php file

Question

i'm newbie to javascript and i have create a function by myself but it's not working

function oi_delete(ns_oi){
alert("Are You Sure About DELETE image # " + ns_oi + " ?");
$.post('insert.php', {ns_oi:ns_oi});
location.reload();}

alert and location is working but seconde line: $.post('insert.php', {ns_oi:ns_oi}); is not working or maybe working wrong!

i have create this function to send a value "ns_oi" to insert.php and in insert.php i have get that value and do something

can anyone help me and say what is the problem?

You're doing location.reload which refreshes the page instantly. The $.post request is asynchronous, it doesn't get the chance to fire before you reload. You can do $.post('insert.php', {ns_oi:ns_oi}).done(function(){ location.reload;}) but you should probably rethink your logic. Why is that location.reload there? — Benjamin Gruenbaum

Note that alert() won't allow the user to click No. Use confirm() instead. — Guillaume Poussel

Why don't you send it properly with a jQuery.post() function properly like:

function oi_delete(ns_oi){
    alert("Are You Sure About DELETE image # " + ns_oi + " ?");

    $.post('insert.php', {ns_oi:ns_oi}, function(data) {
        location.reload();
    });

}
