This built-in JavaScript framework provides simple but powerful AJAX capabilities. Check out the calculator example below.
The HTML markup for this example:
<!-- The form --> <form role="form" data-request="onTest" data-request-update="calcresult: '#result'"> <input type="text" value="15" name="value1"> <select name="operation"> <option>+</option> <option>-</option> <option>*</option> <option>/</option> </select> <input type="text" value="5" name="value2"> <button type="submit">Calculate</button> </form> <!-- The result --> <div id="result">{% partial "calcresult" %}</div>
The calcresult
partial:
{% if result %} The result is {{ result }}. {% else %} Click the <em>Calculate</em> button to find the answer. {% endif %}
The onTest
PHP code:
function onTest() { $value1 = input('value1'); $value2 = input('value2'); $operation = input('operation'); switch ($operation) { case '+' : $this['result'] = $value1 + $value2; break; case '-' : $this['result'] = $value1 - $value2; break; case '*' : $this['result'] = $value1 * $value2; break; default : $this['result'] = $value1 / $value2; break; } }
