            <script>
            $(document).ready(function() {
                $('.ajaxform').click(function() 
                {
                   var avatar = $(this).data("portrait");
                   var avatardir = $(this).data("gallery");

                   $.post('update.php', {avatar : avatar, avatardir : avatardir}, function(data, status) 
                   {

How big is the image file? If it is quite big (even 1 MB), it could take sometimes to load. Ajax is supposed to be for small data transaction so that the client doesn't need to reload the whole page...

You could show a loading animation (simple animated gif) on load and hide on completion. In the same way you could set a visual 'disabled' e.g. greyed-out overlay) on the upload trigger.

its not loading image only getting the image location basicly gallery ID and Picture ID but it dont seam to be working correctly not always adding the selected ids.

WHy is all that html got escape chars all over the place? Are you spitting that out in PHP?!

Member Avatar for Simon180

yes all within side of php script, that is aecho "<td><div><input class=\"ajaxform\" data-portrait=\"#{$str3}\" data-gallery=\"#{$avatarimg}\" type=\"image\" src=\"{$files[$pos]}\" width=\"88\" height=\"88\" border=\"1\"></div></td>";

thats reason

Oh dear. That.s why it didn.t make any sense. So what is the ajax supposed to do? Just replace numbers in input controls?

basicly when you click on a image data-portrait=\"#{$str3}\" AND data-gallery=\"#{$avatarimg}\" will get the image id(portrait) and folder id(gallery) and then post them so I can submit then to database
