PHP AND AJAX

[julian_chamberl]

Hi, I have a probably simply to solve problem. I have a website that is loaded from index.php?page=whatever. Every page is the same apart from the data that is generated from the ?page. Whenever a page is requested it loads a php file that outputs a variable called $main. This is then displayed into a div container. All the html and everything is in there. There must be a simple way to load this with php and ajax without actually reloading the page. Also 2 of the pages are forms that obviously post data. Is there a way to get the response again without reloading? The site is www.bid4myride.com

I have looked and looked and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Jules

It's certainly possible. Questions I'd want to address first before going too terribly far with it would be what effect it might have on SEO (assuming that's at all important for the pages in question), and whether it really saves any time worth worrying about. But if you really want to go full-bore with a single-page web app, maybe you should look into AngularJS?

I also suspect you might have a security problem with your index.php page if you just include a PHP file based on user input.

For example, if your index.php page does something like this then you have a problem:

<?
// this is a security problem

include $_GET["page"];

?>
