I’m do output with json_encode to sending to javascript, with this code.
JavaScript
x
<?php
include "Connection.php";
$syntax_query = "select * from product";
$thisExecuter = mysqli_query($conn, $syntax_query);
$result = array();
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($thisExecuter)){
array_push(
$result,
array(
"id" => $row["product_id"],
"name" => $row["product_name"]
)
);
}
echo json_encode($result);
?>
so output show like this,
[{“id”:”121353568″,”name”:”Baju Casual – Black”},{“id”:”556903232″,”name”:”Tas LV – Red”},{“id”:”795953280″,”name”:”Sword – Wood”},{“id”:”834032960″,”name”:”Scooter – Iron Plate”}]
and code javascript like this
JavaScript
function showHint() {
const xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onload = function() {
var obj = this.responseText;
document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML = obj.id;
}
xmlhttp.open("GET", "Download.php");
xmlhttp.send();
}
so obj.id its not working, output show undifined.

Answer
I use ajax calls when I want to call a Php file and get a response from the same as below to try once that as I have shown. Before moving with Ajax you must need jquery to be imported into the calling file.
If Jquery is imported then ignore the steps
Here are steps,
- Go to the link https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js copy whole content (use ctl+A to select whole content and ctl+C to copy)
- Open a new file in the current project folder and paste the copied content (use ctl+V to paste) save it as ‘jquery-3.6.0.min.js’
- Import the js file in the HTML file in script tag as shown ‘
Now, this is the ajax example to call the PHP file and to get a response
JavaScript
function showHint() {
//since you have used GET method I have used here GET but You can use POST also here
$.ajax({
url: 'Download.php',
type: 'get',
//if any value you want to pass then uncomment below line
// data: {'name_to_pass':'value'},
//the variable can be accessed in the php file by 'name to pass' under $_GET['name_to_pass'] or $_POST['name_to_pass'] based on type
success: function(res)
{
// open DevTool console to see results
console.log(JSON.parse(res));
}
});
}
