How to delete multiple rows of a table with Jquery and ajax?
I want to be able to delete checkbox-selected rows but when I click on "Delete Selected", but I have the following limitations:
1. Can only delete the first row no matter which checkbox I tick
2. Deletion only take place the first time or if I refresh the page.
I want to be able to delete selected rows, and delete them whenever I please without having to refresh the page.
datatable.php
<a type="button" class="delete_all btn">Delete Selected</a>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function($)
{
function create_html_table (tbl_data) {
tbl +='<table>';
tbl +='<thead>';
tbl +='<tr>';
tbl +='<th rowspan="3"><input type="checkbox" id="master"></th>';
// More table headers
tbl +='</tr>';
tbl +='</thead>';
tbl +='<tbody>';
$.each(tbl_data, function(index, val)
{
var row_id = val['row_id'];
//loop through ajax row data
tbl +='<tr id="row" row_id="'+row_id+'">';
tbl +='<td><input type="checkbox" class="sub_chk"></td>';
tbl +='<td>'+(index + 1)+'</td>';
tbl +='<td><div col_name="filename">'+val['filename']+'</div></td>';
// More data
tbl +='</tr>';
});
tbl +='</tbody>';
tbl +='</table>';
}
var ajax_url = "<?php echo APPURL;?>/ajax.php" ;
// Multi-select
$(document).on("click","#master", function(e) {
if($(this).is(':checked',true))
{
$(".sub_chk").prop('checked', true);
}
else
{
$(".sub_chk").prop('checked',false);
}
});
//Delete selected rows
$(document).on('click', '.delete_all', function(event)
{
event.preventDefault();
var ele_this = $('#row') ;
var row_id = ele_this.attr('row_id');
var allVals = [];
$(".sub_chk:checked").each(function()
{
allVals.push(row_id);
});
if(allVals.length <=0)
{
alert("Please select row.");
}
else {
var data_obj=
{
call_type:'delete_row_entry',
row_id:row_id,
};
ele_this.html('<p class="bg-warning">Please wait....deleting your entry</p>')
$.post(ajax_url, data_obj, function(data)
{
var d1 = JSON.parse(data);
if(d1.status == "error")
{
var msg = ''
+ '<h3>There was an error while trying to add your entry</h3>'
+'<pre class="bg-danger">'+JSON.stringify(data_obj, null, 2) +'</pre>'
+'';
}
else if(d1.status == "success")
{
ele_this.closest('tr').css('background','red').slideUp('slow');
}
});
}
});
});
</script>
ajax.php
if(isset($_POST['call_type']) && $_POST['call_type'] =="delete_row_entry")
{
$row_id = app_db()->CleanDBData($_POST['row_id']);
$q1 = app_db()->select("select * from data where row_id='$row_id'");
if($q1 > 0)
{
//found a row to be deleted
$strTableName = "data";
$array_where = array('row_id' => $row_id);
//Call it like this:
app_db()->Delete($strTableName,$array_where);
echo json_encode(array(

die();
