I need a simple ajax tutorial or case study for a simple input form, where I want to post a username through an input form, which sends it to the database and replies with the results.
Any recommendation for such tutorial is welcome, because I've only got one using Mootool but I'm searching for one using jQuery!

GET is basically used for just getting (retrieving) some data from the server. Note: The GET method may return cached data. POST can also be used to get some data from the server. However, the POST method NEVER caches data, and is often used to send data along with the request.
post() makes Ajax requests using the HTTP POST method. The basic syntax of these methods can be given with: $. get(URL, data, success); —Or— $.
data : A plain object or string that is sent to the server with the request. success : A callback function that is executed if the request succeeds.it takes as an argument the returned data. It is also passed the text status of the response.
You can try this:
$.ajax({ url: "test.html", cache: false, success: function(html){ $("#results").append(html); } }); This code will append the content of test.html file to #results element
You can find more information at jQuery website.
Update:
Use this code to send POST data and output result.
var menuId = $("ul.nav").first().attr("id"); var request = $.ajax({ url: "script.php", type: "POST", data: {id : menuId}, dataType: "html" }); request.done(function(msg) { $("#log").html( msg ); }); request.fail(function(jqXHR, textStatus) { alert( "Request failed: " + textStatus ); }); If you love us?
