type_unknow

[etsted]

i have here a tekst field and a button, that interacts with php using ajax

 

$status_ui = '<textarea id="statustext" onkeyup="statusMax(this,250)" placeholder="What's new with you '.$u.'?"></textarea>'; $status_ui .= '<button id="statusBtn" onclick="postToStatus('status_post','a',''.$u.'','statustext')">Post</button>';

 

But i get some sort of an error, which i dont know why is there

 

i get all the variables using the postToStatus function, and then send them to a php script using:

 

ajax.send("action="+action+"&type="+type+"&user="+user+"&data="+data);

 

in the php script i have an if statement

 

if($_POST['type'] != 'a' || $_POST['type'] != 'c')

{

echo "type_unknow";

exit;

}

 

it doesnt say anything about $_POST['type'], but when i run print_r i can see that the $_POST['type'] is set

Your logic is wrong. The variable is always either not "a" or not "c".

 

If it's "a" then it's not "c", if it's "c" then it's not "a", if it's neither "c" nor "a" then that statement is true as well. Use && instead of ||
