Greetings all...
I am new to AJAX, particularly as it pertains to CF. I've
searched pretty extensively but I can't seem to find a solution or
example of how to integrate AJAX with CF in a way that I can
automatically pass an update to a table when a checkbox is clicked.
I understand from my searching that this functionality is
made simple in CF8, however I am developing this in CF MX7, and
upgrading is not a possibility right now. I hope someone has some
knowledge, or even an example of this somewhere on the Interwebs
that I can pick apart to learn from.
Basically, the details of what I want to do is: I output a
list of items from a DB table into a list. The last column on this
list contains a checkbox. When I click the checkbox next to an
item, I want to update that record in the associated DB table...in
this case I would be updating a row from 0 to 1 or back to zero
again if the box is unchecked. I am also limiting the number of
boxes checked to 5, but I've already figured out that logic using
Javascript and it is working.
I suspect this is a very simple thing to do, however my
unfamiliarity with AJAX is causing a huge problem. Thanks in
advance for any help you can give or resources you can point me to.
It is much appreciated.
David K.
