Ajax pagination

Have you ever tried the pagiantion with php using Ajax ?
We just pass the query, starting page and records per page you want to display in the pagination.

Lets start with a simple example to understand how it can be done.

steps:

1: create a database 'ajax'
2: create a table 'students':

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `students` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
)

3. insert data into the table:

INSERT INTO `students` (`id`, `name`) VALUES
(1, 'Reneesh'),(2, 'Aniesh'),(3, 'Babu'),(4, 'Antony'),(5, 'Praveesh'),
(6, 'Dixon'),(7, 'Sanju'),(8, 'Neeraj'),(9, 'Siju'),(10, 'Noble'),
(11, 'Bibin'),(12, 'Febin'),(13, 'Binu'),(14, 'Charles'),(15, 'jaggu'),
(16, 'mani'),(17, 'milu'),(18, 'aravind'),(19, 'jay'),(20, 'hari');

4. Change the mysql connection settings in index.php and in paginate.php page.

FYI:
pagination_class.php file has the core class that prints the pagination results.
pagination.js sends the ajax request to paginate.php, which handles the pagination.
pgstyle.css is for the styles.

A screenshot is also included for a better understanding.

So download the files in this zip file and run it yourself.
Download

All the best.

Joomla validate chrono forms using jquery

It is a common practice to use Chrono forms in our joomla site to setup various forms in the site, be it a contact us form, submit a ticket form, or whatever. I have set the option "validate form" to "No" under chronoform settings in admin panel, and also preferred to not include any js or css files. For validating the chrono forms, i prefer jquery. So first lets add jquery support in our joomla. It is quite simple: 1. Download jquery.js and jquery_min.js (1.4.2 version is enough) and place them in media/system/js folder of your joomla. 2. Edit libraries->joomla->html->html->behavior.php, and add the following function below the mootools() function: function jQuery($debug = null)     {         static $loaded;         global $mainframe;         // Only load once         if ($loaded) {    ...

php get content between tags

This involves parsing the dom document. <?php function getTextBetweenTags($tag, $html) {     $dom = new domDocument;     @$dom->loadHTML($html);         $dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;     $content = $dom->getElementsByTagname($tag);     $out = array();         foreach ($content as $item)     {         $out[] = $item->nodeValue;     }     return $out; } $xhtml = '<tag>abc def</tag><tag>123 456</tag>'; $content2 = getTextBetweenTags('tag', $xhtml); foreach( $content2 as $item ) {     echo $item.'<br />'; } ?> Output: abc def 123 456
