Palle,

Hi - within each loop your yes a= nd no submit buttons - and the 'textboxcontent' inputs have the sam= e ID.=C2=A0 So jQuery is pulling the value from the first - i.e. the Yes in= put each time.

If you use Firefox Developer Editio= n - https://ww= w.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/ - then open 'inspector > = network > xhr" - you can then see the ajax requests and parameters = that are passed etc.

- Tom

Hi Donovan

Thanks for the explanation and opinion.

In the mean time I have migrated from the WebDNA Ajax framework to the JQue= ry Ajax framework - but with the same objective.

Please note that the code is a dummy code and should eventually end up bein= g use as a Like or Dislike in a forum (forum post function).

The code which I am pasting within the mail is supposed to illustrate a for= um thread with three posts. Each of them can be rate with a yes or no (like= or dislike). New new code has given me some other challenges compared to t= he previous.

a) regardless of me pressing yes or no it returns the value =E2=80=9C1=E2= =80=9D even though the forum input should have dictated another value =E2= =80=9C2=E2=80=9D when pressing 2.
b) any form variable is not forwarded to the parson.dna file which I do not= understand.

So my original problem of returning a value form AJAX to the HTML within th= e right return specified area is fixed.

H<er come the code (also attached).

Palle,

Hi - within each loop your yes a= nd no submit buttons - and the 'textboxcontent' inputs have the sam= e ID.=C2=A0 So jQuery is pulling the value from the first - i.e. the Yes in= put each time.

If you use Firefox Developer Editio= n - https://ww= w.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/developer/ - then open 'inspector > = network > xhr" - you can then see the ajax requests and parameters = that are passed etc.

- Tom

Hi Donovan

Thanks for the explanation and opinion.

In the mean time I have migrated from the WebDNA Ajax framework to the JQue= ry Ajax framework - but with the same objective.

Please note that the code is a dummy code and should eventually end up bein= g use as a Like or Dislike in a forum (forum post function).

The code which I am pasting within the mail is supposed to illustrate a for= um thread with three posts. Each of them can be rate with a yes or no (like= or dislike). New new code has given me some other challenges compared to t= he previous.

a) regardless of me pressing yes or no it returns the value =E2=80=9C1=E2= =80=9D even though the forum input should have dictated another value =E2= =80=9C2=E2=80=9D when pressing 2.
b) any form variable is not forwarded to the parson.dna file which I do not= understand.

So my original problem of returning a value form AJAX to the HTML within th= e right return specified area is fixed.

H<er come the code (also attached).
