I have an input text that is correctly populate with Twitter Typeahead. In this case i would like to select a value from select box and populate the input text with values that are related with selected dropdownlist value. I found similar questions about my doubt but unfortunatly i didnt get the correct way to solve this:
Below is the code that display a select box that is populate with php code and an input text that is populated with Twitter TypeAhead script:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<meta charset="utf-8">
<!-- CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<!-- jQuery library -->
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/bootstrap-3-typeahead/4.0.2/bootstrap3-typeahead.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<br>
<h1>DYNAMIC TWITTER TYPEAHEAD</h1>
<br>
<div class="row">
<?php
// Include the database config file
include_once 'dbConfig.php';
// Fetch all the category data
$query = "SELECT * FROM categories ORDER BY category ASC";
$result = $db->query($query);
?>
<!-- category dropdown -->
<div class="col-md-4">
<select id="categoryFK" name="categoryFK" class="form-control">
<option value="">Select category</option>
<?php
if($result->num_rows > 0){
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){
echo '<option value="'.$row['categoryID'].'">'.$row['category'].'</option>';
}
}else{
echo '<option value="">Category not available</option>';
}
?>
</select>
</div>
<div class="col-md-4">
<input type="text" name="products" id="products" class="form-control input-lg" autocomplete="off" placeholder="" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Below is the script that call php script via Ajax:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#categoryFK').on('change', function(){
var queryID = $(this).val();
if(queryID){
$('#products').typeahead({
source: function(query, result)
{
$.ajax({
url:"fetch.php",
method:"POST",
data: 'query='+queryID,
dataType:"json",
success:function(data)
{
result($.map(data, function(item){
return item;
}));
}
})
}
});
}
});
});
</script>
And below is the php script (fetch.php) that populate values according to categoryID:
<?php
//fetch.php
include 'dbConfig.php';
if(!empty($_POST["query"])){
$request = mysqli_real_escape_string($db, $_POST["query"]);
$query = "
SELECT * FROM products WHERE productName LIKE '%".$request."%' AND categoryFK = ".$_POST["query"]."
";
$result = $db->query($query);
$data = array();
if(mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0)
{
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$data[] = $row["productName"];
}
echo json_encode($data);
}
}
?>
As i showed the code above, when i type something into input text after i selected any option into select box, the input text with Twitter TypeAhead just populate one register.
In this case, how can i improve php code above to populate input text with values related with select box value correctly? Thanks.
I managed to solve the problem. Below are the scripts that i modified to adapt on my project:
AJAX
<script type="text/javascript">
var products;
$ ( function ()
{
$('#categoryFK').on('change', function(){
var queryID = $(this).val();
$.ajax({
url:"fetch.php",
method:"POST",
data: {
category: queryID
},
dataType:"json",
success:function(data)
{
$("#products").val ('');
products = data;
}
});
});
$('#products').typeahead({
source: function ( query, result )
{
result ( $.map(products, function (item)
{
return item;
}
));
}
});
});
</script>
And PHP script (fetch.php)
<?php
include 'dbConfig.php';
if ( isset ( $_POST [ 'category' ] ) ) {
$request = $db->real_escape_string($_POST["category"]);
$query = "
SELECT * FROM products WHERE categoryFK = ".$request."
";
$result = $db->query($query);
$data = array ();
if ( $result->num_rows > 0 )
{
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc ())
{
$data[]=$row["productName"];
}
echo json_encode($data);
}
}
?>
Now, with these modifications, i can select an option into "category" select box and after, type into input text where all valus related with selected option will be load :)
