i have an div (id="id_content") in Main.html, and an php file "cmp.php" is dynamically loaded by JQuery.load() in "id_content". It is working fine.
However after the "cmp.php" called itself (for updating) using following code : <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" target="_self" method="post" >
the "cmp.php" occupies the complete browser, what i want ist that "cmp.php" is always being displaye in div "id_content".
Thanks in advance.
The problem is that you are posting the form with the target="_self". This tells the browser that what is returned from the cmd.php should replace the content of the current window.
You have some options:
1) Create an iframe on the main.html like:
<iframe id="postframe"></iframe>
Change the the form to:
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" target="postframe" method="post" >
The result of cmd.php will now appear inside the iframe when you submit.
2) Use Jquery to post/get your form data and handle the result in Javascript.
<form id="yourform">
</form>
$("#yourform").on("submit",function(e){
//Called when you hit submit
e.preventDefault(); //Don't post the form
//Create a request from form variables and send to server.
//Depending on the result alter id_content.
return false;
});
