Ottimo post, molto interessante soprattutto il login ajax/php
Hi Antonio, your blog looks like so nice, minimalistic design.
I only have a suggest, we need demos, your visitors need demos, your tutorials are great, but without demos... :S
Antonio, thanks so much for all your great articles. I really enjoy them.
However, I would like to get your advise. If I wanted to get a small piece of code lets say like having an auto suggest feature, would you advise to use the frameworks available or hard code the Ajax framework file.
I would like to have small features of Ajax like when someone search, it automatically displays the results however I think that including a whole framework like prototype would be so heavy for no good cause.
when the record is deleted, how would you display the table again without refreshing the page to show the new data?
@Anonymous: you have only add a query to get all records:
Step 1: delete your record:
$delete_sql = "DELETE from TABLE WHERE..."
$delete = mysql_query($delete_sql);
... and add below this code a select quer:
$get_records_sql = "SELECT * from TABLE...."
$delete = mysql_query($get_records_sql);
... and display your records:
<ul>
<?php while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($get_records{?>
<li><img src=" echo $row.['URL_image'] ?>"></li>
<?php } ?>
Hi, nice tutorials.
best wishes
