Re: functions using tables

Yes, all you need to do is give each row a unique id (eg number) and use ajax to make the php request.

Re: functions using tables

This is a brief code...

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
echo '<table border=1 cellpadding=5 cellspacing=0>';
for ($i=0;$row=mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_result);$i++) {
echo '<tr id="'.$i.'">';
echo '<td>'.$row['column1'].'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$row['column2'].'</td>';
echo '<td><a href=# onclick="javascript:ajaxfunction(\''.$i.'\');">Send</a></td>';
}
echo '</table>';
echo '<table border=1 cellpadding=5 cellspacing=0>';
for ($i=0;$row=mysql_fetch_assoc($sql_result);$i++) {
echo '<tr id="'.$i.'">';
echo '<td>'.$row['column1'].'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$row['column2'].'</td>';
echo '<td><a href=# onclick="javascript<b></b>:ajaxfunction(\''.$i.'\');">Send</a></td>';
}
echo '</table>';

Re: functions using tables

My code was just a brief outline that shows the hard stuff but all you need to do is create the ajax function with the row input and to do the mysql query. I would suggest following an ajax tutorial for that bit so you can get an understanding of how it works.

Re: functions using tables

Possibly the error "Object required." will comes if you haven't created instance for the database or if you haven't created XMLHTTPREQUEST Object.

If you haven't created Ajax object then
javascript:ajaxfunction
will not works for you.

cwarn23 has given correct code for you.
