Web App Search using Ajax ?

[JD380]

I've created a webapp that save the user pictures information, now I want to create a page where user can filter the list displayed using ajax. I have a requirement for not using any submit button to filter the data but as soon as the user select the data such as a checkbox is checked the data displayed should gets filtered up according to the criteria but with ajax effect. How can I achieve on this issue ?

Below is the image of the filter box:

Hi,

The way to do that would be to use jQuery post function http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.post/ and submit the web app search form using that function, then capture the results and display them on the page.

See http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/733/bc_733.html#main_Web_App_Search

JavaScript is outside of support's scope so I can not unfortunately offer more help on this, but I hope this gives you an idea of what you need to do.

Kind regards,
