So I have a simple form where I ask the user some info to register and make an account, this is the part of the form I am using to achieve that:
<form class="login-form2" action="index.html">
<div class="center sliding"><img style='width:20%; margin: 42%; margin-top: 8%; margin-bottom: 0%;'src="./images/logoTemporal.png"></div>
<div class="login-wrap">
<p class="login-img"><i class="icon_lock_alt"></i></p>
<!-- Name -->
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon"><i class="icon_profile"></i></span>
<input type="text" id="Name" name="Name" class="form-control" placeholder="Name or Name.Corp" autofocus>
</div>
<!-- Email -->
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon"><i class="icon_key_alt"></i></span>
<input type="email" id="Email" name="Email" class="form-control" placeholder="Email">
</div>
<!-- Passwrod -->
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon"><i class="icon_key_alt"></i></span>
<input type="password" id="Password" name="Password" class="form-control" placeholder="Password">
</div>
<!-- Confirm password -->
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-addon"><i class="icon_key_alt"></i></span>
<input type="password" class="form-control" placeholder="Confirm Password">
</div>
<!-- Tipo -->
<div class="item-content input-group-addon">
<div class="item-media"><i class="icon f7-icons">Tipo Usuario</i></div>
<br>
<div class="item-input">
<select id="Tipo" name="Tipo">>
<option value="0" selected>Empresa</option>
<option value="1">Usuario</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
<br>
<!-- Button-->
<!-- <a class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block" href="register.html">Register</a> -->
<p> <input type="button" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg btn-block" id="signup" value="Send"/></p>
</div>
</form>
I am trying to get the values into some variables in a jc, but for some reason I am not getting them:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#signup").click(function() {
alert("Im in the function");//this is the only alert showing when I test the page...
//From here on it is not working
var Name = $('#Name').val();
var Email = $('#Email').val();
var Password = $('#Password').val();
var Tipo = $('#Tipo').val();
if (Name == '' || Email == '' || Password == '' || Tipo == '')
{ alert("please complete the information"); }
else {
// AJAX code to submit form.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'dummy url',
crossDomain: true,
beforeSend: function(){ $mobile.loading('show')},
complete: function(){ $mobile.loading('hide')},
data: ({Name: Name, Email: Email, Password: Password, Tipo: Tipo}),
dataType: 'json',
success: function(html){
alert("Thank you for Registering with us! you
can login now");
},
error: function(html){
alert("Not Working");
}
});
}//else end
});
});
I am still trying to learn many things here but what I need to know is why the variables are not getting the values from the form, could be something dumb but I just cant see it... Would appreciate some help...
EDIT: Adding my php code, now I get an error when trying to send the data to my host´s php using JSON, the javascript prints the "not working" alert, what I think is that my php is not really getting the json so its not working but im not 100% sure so here is my php code:
<?php
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, PATCH, DELETE, OPTIONS');
require 'data/DataCollector.php';
$varData = json_decode($data);
$Name = $varData->Name;
$Email = $varData->Email;
$Password = $varData->Password;
$Tipo = $varData->Tipo;
$database = new DataCollector([
'database_name' => 'dummy url',
'server' => 'dummy server',
'username' => 'dummy username',
'password' => 'dummy password',
'charset' => 'utf8',
]);
if($_POST){
$database->insert("Usuario", [
"nombre" => $_POST[$Name],
"email" => $_POST[$Email],
"password" => $_POST[$Password],
"tipoUsuario" => $_POST[$Tipo]
]);
}
?>
I have never used JSON and I am trying to learn about it, there is probably A LOT of issues with my code but any help will be very much appreciated! thanks!
