First, we will take a look at the Scoring module. It consists of JavaScript with an Ajax call to actually get the score data from the database. Here is the code for the JavaScript method:
function GetMyScore(){
var action='GetMyPoints',
player=getFromLocalStorage('player');
$("#myscore").html('0');
$.ajax({
dataType: "text",
data: {action:action,player:player},
url: $AJAXHANDLER,
success: function (data) {
$("#myscore").html(data);
},
error: function (xhr, status, error) {
alert(status + error + xhr.responseText);
}
});
}In the following code, the Ajax method calls ajax_handler.php, whose job is to accept the Ajax call and call the correct PHP function based on the action parameter passed to it by the Ajax call:
<?php include 'vupoint.php'; ?>
<?php
if(isset($_GET['player'])){$player=$_GET['player']; }
switch ($_GET['action']) {
case 'GetMyPoints':
GetMyVuPoints...
