javascript - Express.js - Send an alert as a response while staying on same page -
i have 3 forms on view that, when submitted, add new entries in mysql database. send alert saying "you have added x" whenever entry added, without navigating page.
// form submitted <form method="post" action="route/action/"> <input type="text" name="name"> </form> // route exports.action = function (req, res) { client.query(); // kind of response send? }
how can send alert? kind of response should send?
thank you!
what need ajax request express server , evaluate response , alert user accordingly. client part same other programming language.
for example. in jquery client side part can
$.ajax({ url: 'route/action/', type: "post", data: 'your form data', success: function(response){ alert('evaluate response , show alert'); } });
in epxress app can have this
app.post('route/action', function(req, res){ //process request here , db queries //then send response. may json response res.json({success: true}); });
