partial page refresh

[raghavendrachar]

Hi,
I am doing you-tube like/dislike script for my web page having comments given by user and other users may like or dislike the comments.

I want to do is that when user click on like or dislike images , it automatically update the database and update the counter on web-page with out refresh.

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
$(".like").click(function()
{
var id=$(this).attr("id");
var name=$(this).attr("name");
var dataString = 'id='+ id + '&name='+ name;
$("#votebox").slideDown("slow");

$.ajax
({
type: "POST",
url: "rating.php",
data: dataString,
cache: false,
success: function(html)
{
$(#refreshelement).load();
} 
});
});
});
</script>
<div id="refreshelement">
<?php getting data form database ?>
<div><a class="like">like</a><?php get count like?></div>
<div><a class="like">dislike</a><?php get count like?></div>
</div>

this is the code I am using for auto update database and auto refresh .. here update to the database is coming but auto refresh is not happening.

could any one help me in this issue.

Put quotes around "#refreshelemen t" on line 19.

Also, use the html variable to set the results. There's an example on the jQuery.post page.
