I am trying to run an ajax script from javascript inside a PHP file :
$(document).on('click', '.goto_date', function(){
var datechosen= $('#pickdate').val();
alert(datechosen);
$.ajax({
url:"vdater.php",
method:"POST",
dataType:"json",
data:{'datechosen':datechosen},
success:function(data){
alert('success');
}
});
});

<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div align="center">
<input type="button" name="gotodate" value="Go to date" id="gotodate" />
<input type="date" name='pickdate' id='pickdate' />
</div>
</body>
</html>
But when I run the code nothing happens apart from the alert box referring that the ajax script is reachable in the code.. The PHP file may contain the following code:
echo $_POST['datechosen'];
CodePudding user response:
Surprisingly, It worked by removing the line:
dataType:"json",
CodePudding user response:
Try this one. It must be worked!
