I am trying to implement a snippet of code to create a like and dislike system using PHP, MYSQL and JS via http://codewithawa.com/posts/like-dislike-system-with-php-and--mysql

Everything over there works fine but I am trying to make the ajax call via JavaScript itself and not the Jquery library. Someone should help please!


Also, a $_POST['action'] super global was addressed within the PHP codes but a form tag that should refer to it was not created in the HTML codes, I guess it has to do with the JQuery ajax. Right?

Why don't you want to use the Jquery AJAX library it's much easier to use than the JavaScript Method

I just really want to know how its done in JavaScript. Sadly enough, all alternatives I've seen are all written in jquery.

I just weak..

I tried it once before with JavaScipt but since l found out about Jquery AJAX l have never gone back to using JavaScript AJAX

this is a simple tutorial


// create XMLHttpRequest object
ajR = new XMLHttpRequest();


// set the function that will receive the response
//here sT refers to the document element u want to populate with the result

ajR.onreadystatechange = ajaxfunc;

function ajaxfunc() {
if(ajR.readyState == 4) {
if(ajR.status == 200){

sT.innerHTML = ajR.responseText;

}
}
}




//then finally open and send the request
//this request is sent using "GET" request to url

ajR.open("GET", $url, true);
ajR.send();



if you need further explanation u can send whatsapp message(08129615641)

Or you use fetch

Ehmm Have you done it already or should I contribute too?

I would recommend you use axios http library. It isn't based on jquery so can work well with vanilla js or any other framework
