Question

I want to pass a dynamic parameter with qTip, but it fails. my_ajax_controller.php just displays the variable type, but not q.

$('a.menu_help').qtip({
    content: {
      url:'my_ajax_controller.php',
      data: 'type=help_menu&q='+$(this).attr('id'),
      method: 'get'
    },
    show: 'mouseover',
    hide: 'mouseout'
});

However, a static value of q works:

$('a.menu_help').qtip({
    content: {
      url:'my_ajax_controller.php',
      data: 'type=help_menu&q=toto',
      method: 'get'
    },
    show: 'mouseover',
    hide: 'mouseout'
});

Is there no way to pass a dynamic value to the parameter data ?

Thanks in advance !

Answer 1

It should work, but just try to see what you pass as ID, or pass data as collection something like:

data : {'type':'help_menu', 'q':id}

Or

   
 $('a.menu_help').qtip({
    var id = $(this).attr('id');
    alert(id);
    content: {
      url:'my_ajax_controller.php',
      data: 'type=help_menu&q='+ id,
      method: 'get'
    },
    show: 'mouseover',
    hide: 'mouseout'
});
