Question

How can I make jQuery get the PHP parameter from mysql_fetch_array()? Below is part of my code, any suggestion would be welcomed.

PHP

$query=mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
    while($list=mysql_fetch_array($query)){
            print"
<div id=\"#$list[id]\" class=\"f\">

jQuery

switch(id) {
case '#$list[id]':

(I’m trying to use Fancybox with this method https://stackoverflow.com/a/7844043/1575921)

Answer 1

why not use $.ajax() for this?

http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/

$.ajax({
  url: 'yourphpcode.php',
  success: function(data) {
    // all your $list variables are saved in data
    // so you can work from here with your data array
  }
});

php:

$query = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
    while($list = mysql_fetch_array($query)){
            echo $list['id'];
}

It’s most likely you get something like this back from php:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
etc.

with javascript you can split this with:

dataArray = data.split(”\n“);

so your final code would be:

 $.ajax({
      url: 'yourphpcode.php',
      success: function(data) {
        dataArray = data.split("\n");
      }
 });
