im trying to read data from php but in firefox im getting the element not found error
the code is very simple , since im new to javascript and php

Javascript code:

function ShowPage3()
{
	window.location="#Page3"
		
	$.get('test.php?name', function(data) 
	{
    	$('#ccc').html(data);
	});

}

PHP code:

<?php
	if (isset($_GET['name']))
 	{
		header("HTTP/1.0 200");
    	echo "Asked for name!";
	}
?>

I believe this is your problem.

In your PHP, you're trying to $_GET['name']. In order for that to work, you would have to use test.php?name=xyz. Otherwise, you're not giving anything for $_GET to actually get.

hey BenignDesign

i still get "no element found" on line 7 of the php


i dunt know if this is trivial but its a jquery mobile app

Line 7 of your Javascript is

$('#ccc').html(data);

I'm afraid I'm not entirely familiar with jQuery - particularly using $, so maybe help me understand what you're doing with this... looks like you're passing the color code #ccc to an html string thing. Am I even close?

[Cpp_noob]

$('#ccc').html(data);

will change the text of the id element (in this case the id is 'ccc') to whatever the "data" holds

also if i remove that line i still get the same error

doesn’t line #3 reloads the page before the AJAX can return?
