Question

How would I call a PHP Method/function from jQuery ajax. Is this even possible? If it is not possible in jquery, is it possible in plain javascript? I have searched the web trying to find the answer but no site I could find was helpful. Would I need to make an ajax request to another php file, set a session variable dedicated to this and then make the other ajax request and in the requested php file, use the session data to perform the operation of am I over thinking this? Thanks for any help possible!

Answer 1

very simply,
jquery:

$.get("code.php");

PHP:

<?php func(); ?>

for advanced:
use this jquery to run php:

$.get("code.php?action=func1");

and write this code in php:

<?php
if( $_REQUEST['action'] == 'func1' ){
   func1();
   die();
}
?>
