I'm trying to call a php function that is defined on a php file.
On the php file I have this that will call the function
if(isset($_GET))
{
submit(); //Do something with your GET
}
But I'm getting an error when calling the php function within the jquery. I imagine it could be a path problem. The jquery file is in js/file.js and the php function is on data/php/function.php so I try it calling it like this.
$.ajax({
url: "../data/php/functions.php&paperid="+$('#table-paperid').text(),
type: "GET",
success:function(result)//we got the response
{
alert('Successfully called');
},
error:function(exception){alert('Exception:'+exception);}
});
But no matter what I write on the url I always get the exception error. Any ideas?

You can set the query string this way as well:
$.ajax({
url: "../data/php/functions.php",
type: "GET",
data: {paperid: $('#table-paperid').text() }
success:function(result)//we got the response
{
alert('Successfully called');
},
error:function(exception){alert('Exception:'+exception);}
});

It's better practice to use a POST ajax call in this case. You should also put the "type" property before the "url" field, although, I doubt this is the source of the error. Try an ajax call that looks something like this.
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: '/some/path',
data: { paperid : $('#table-paperid').text()},
success: function(data) {
var response = JSON.parse(data);
}
})
and your php should be modified to.
if(isset($_POST['paperid']))
{
submit(); //Do something with your GET
}
I've done this many times with no issue so hopefully this will solve your problem.
Best of luck!
