Question

Hello I am a beginner and need some guidance on how to achieve this using jQuery

I want to post one text field value using Ajax to a PHP script that will take this value and check it against a database query. If the value exists I want the query to also retrieve other matching row data.

This data should then be sent back to the Ajax script.I then need to access this data so I can manipulate it using jQuery.

Can anyone give me a an idea of how to achieve this?

You need to use jQuery’s AJAX function

 var request = $.ajax({
     url: "yourscript.php",
     data: {

     }
 });

 request.done(function(data){

 });
