This is a dragable image like Facebook. When I drag it change JavaScript value. The Question is how can I get this value to PHP and when I click the button it should save changes?
This is the code JavaScript:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.wrap').imagedrag({
input: "#output",
position: "middle",
attribute: "html"
});
});
And this is HTML:
<span id="output"></span>
Also I want to save it into database from the variable of PHP.
Look at jQuery.ajax(). With it you can dynamicaly send the variable value to your php.
Example:
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: "json",
url: "some.php",
data: { name: "John", location: "Boston" }
})
.done(function( msg ) {
alert( "Data Saved: " + msg );
});
In your case :
your html
<span id="output"></span>
your javascript
// Define the click evenement to your button
$('#output').click(function(){
// Retrieve the value you want to save
var valueToSave = ...;
// Send the value in PHP
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
dataType: "json",
url: "yourPhpPage.php",
data: { "value": valueToSave }
})
.done(function(msg) {
alert("Data Saved!");
});
});
your PHP
if (($value = filter_input(INPUT_POST, "value", FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW)) !== null)
{
// You got your value here
}
When you want to communicate to server the client side values, AJAX is the best option we got. Go with AJAX.
On click of save, call an AJAX function to send the values to the server.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "your.php",
data: { value: $("#output").text() } //here you get data from dom and post it
})
.done(function( msg ) {
alert( "Data Saved: " + msg );
});
