JQuery Ajax response not working | Php

Question

I have a code like this

<script type="text/javascript">

function email(){
var myTextField = document.getElementById('email_hidden').value;
//alert(myTextField);
$.ajax({    
    type: "POST",
    url: "sendmail.php",
    data: "email_user="+myTextField,
    success: function(response){
    alert(response);    

}
});
}
</script>

My sendmail.php code is like this.

    <?php
    $to = $_REQUEST['email_user'];
    $headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
    $headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
    $headers .= "From: Haan Test<[email protected]>\r\n";
    $message_body = "Your Details";
    $subject = "Check mail";
    mail($to, $subject, $message_body, $headers);
    echo "success";
    ?>

and my html looks like this.

   <div id="email_hide"><a href="#" onclick="email()" >Send Email</a></div>

I am getting the response in my firebug console as success but i could not alert the response. I can receive the mail also for the above jquery ajax functionality(sendmail.php)

In other words, how to alert the response after ajax call.. I have tried onComplete also. plz help me with this.

My Scenerio is like this: User page(index1.html) >> Paypal Sandbox (for transaction) >> User page(index2.html) Here in index2.html, i fetch last transaction details from paypal sandbox with a send mail at the top right corner, so when user clicks the send mail(anchor tag) the mail should be sent via ajax jquery call.

Thanks Haan

can you paste the exact message data received in your firebug, after the request is complete? — linuxeasy

firebug console? firebug console can give you javascript messages like those frmo console.log('success'). A right way would be to check your network tab for the url -> sendmail.php and see what its response is and tell us! — linuxeasy

If ur datatype is json ,then try this

<script type="text/javascript">

function email(){
var myTextField = document.getElementById('email_hidden').value;
//alert(myTextField);
$.ajax({    
    type: "POST",
    url: "sendmail.php",
    data: "email_user="+myTextField,
     dataType: "json", 
    success: function(response){
    alert(response);    

}

Try using the shorthand jquery method for post:

<script type="text/javascript">

    function email(){
        var myTextField = document.getElementById('email_hidden').value;
        //alert(myTextField);
        $.post("sendmail.php", {"email_user": myTextField}, function(data) {
            alert(data);
        });
    }

</script>

Try add

$.ajax({    
   type: "POST",
   url: "sendmail.php",
   data: "email_user="+myTextField,
   success: function(response){
      alert("Success\n" + response);    
   },
   error: function(errMsg) {
      alert("Error\n" + errMsg);
   }
});

and see which one gets called.

no change. i dnt get any alert even after adding ur code. any other suggestions plz?

@hjaffer2001 it could be possible that your code is timing out on the server side? If you want you can try modify so that echo 'success'; is before mail(); and call flush(); Actually, give it a test and comment out mail(); see what happens. Maybe just do a print_r($_POST); die(); at the beginning of the code?

the scenerio is lik this. i have a page that is redirected from payment paypal sandbox along with my last transaction details. so when user clicks the send mail button after redirect from sandbox paypal, the mail should be sent via jquery ajax

DdD Over a year ago

Never mind the scenario :) Have you tried out what I suggested?

hjaffer2001 Over a year ago

This is my response to the print_r($POST);die(); Array ( [email_user] => [email protected] ) Now, your comments plz
