I want to ask how can I insert my sql query to the html datatable table body.
This is my present code:
AJAX Query for loading datatable after button click:
$(document).on('click','#filtersearch',function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url:"index.php",
method:"POST",
data:{
formula:"filtersearch"
},
dataType:"json",
beforeSend:()=>{
$('.load_spinner').removeClass('d-none');
},
success:function(res){
$('.load_spinner').addClass('d-none');
select_d = res;
console.log(res);
var str ="";
if (!$.isEmptyObject(select_d)) {
select_d.forEach((x)=>{
str += `<tr>
<td>${x.assetid}</td>
<td>${x.assetcode}</td>
<td>${x.assetserial}</td>
<td>${x.assetname}</td>
<td>${x.assettype}</td>
<td>${x.assetcat}</td>
<td>${x.dpurchased}</td>
<td>${x.price}</td>
<td>${x.dperiod}</td>
<td>${x.finprice}</td>
<td>${x.status}</td>
<td>${x.assetage}</td>
<td>${x.location}</td>
</tr>`;
})
}
data_table("#table_index","#tbody_index",str);
}
})
})
Javascript for Datatable Content transfer from AJAX:
function data_table(table_name,tbody_name,data_tbody) {
$(table_name).DataTable().destroy();
$(tbody_name).empty().html(data_tbody);
$(table_name).DataTable();
};
Datatable HTML cointainer that will get the ajax query:
<table class="table table-bordered" id="table_index" width="100%" cellspacing="0">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>No.</th>
<th>Asset Code</th>
<th>Asset Serial</th>
<th>Asset Name</th>
<th>Category</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Date Purchased</th>
<th>Initial Price (PHP)</th>
<th>Depreciation Period</th>
<th>Final Price (PHP)</th>
<th>Status</th>
<th>Classification</th>
<th>Location</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody id="tbody_index">
</tbody>
</table>
PHP code for database query:
<?php
include 'include/dbconfig.php';
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM tbl_assets';
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);
$formula ='';
if (isset($_POST['formula'])) {
$formula = $_POST['formula'];
}
switch ($formula) {
case 'filtersearch':
$result = filtersearch();
$supData = array();
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$supData[] = $row;
}
echo json_encode($supData);
break;
default:
break;
}
function filtersearch()
{
include 'include/dbconfig.php';
$query = mysqli_query($conn,"SELECT * FROM tbl_assets");
return $query;
}
?>
I just want to ask what is wrong with my code since the script doesn’t show the values of Tbody as intended. Thanks.

I found a solution after manipulating the pages instead.
Instead of coding all of them in one page, I tried creating another page (switchcase.php) that contains the PHP files and it worked as intended.
Just a hunch, but I think ajax doesn't accept urls of the same page. I don't know if thats how it works but yeah, I changed the url to switchcase.php and it worked.
if you using datatable with ajax and php try this way
