Im trying to update a database field without refreshing the page
what im using is:
<a class="youtube" href="#" rel="<?php echo $row['link'];?>" title="<?php echo $row['title']; ?>" >
<div class="overlay_play"></div>
</a>
Then i want to update from this video ( they all have unique id's ofc) the field plays
My table looks like this:
id - int(9) title - text link - text plays - int(99)
So in short I have a video list of 6 video's on one page and you can play them in a popup window But what i want is if you click play video that the plays field will be updated
The popup window is done with jquery ( like lightbox ) so i can't refresh the page.

Its easy ,you can do this by using ajax along with php page
if(playbutton pressed) {
//perform the database operation in through calling a ajax page
//using jquery post one of them
$.post('ajax/save.php', function(data) {
$('.result').html(data);
});
}
save.php
//Contains all the database operations to save the field
