Update database with $.post() and download link

Update database with $.post() and download link

Hi,

I am trying to update the database as soon as a link is clicked which downloads an image

But it seems not not to work with a link containing an image to download. If it is a normal text link iit works. How weird is that?

Any idea? Thanks in advance.

Here's some simple test code:
  1. $(function(){
        $('.btn_download').click(function(){
            var senddata = { action: 'change_interface', interface_value: '1' };
            $.post('daten.php', senddata, function(data){ 
                $('#console').html(data);
                data_new = $.trim(data)
                if (data_new == 'successo') {
                    //do sth
                }
                if(data_new=='Invalid data') {
                    //do sth
                }
            });
        });
    });
