i'm trying to update the data in my DB table called "users", specifically 3 columns. But now i'm just trying to communicate with a controller to get an echo!!
I have the following code:
My view file (dashboard.blade.php) has a form in it:
<div class="small-12">
{{ Form::open(array('action' => 'UsersController@putCoordinates')) }}
<div class="row">
<div class="small-3 columns">
<label for="city" class="right inline"><i class="fa fa-chevron-right"></i></label>
</div>
<div class="small-9 columns">
{{ Form::text('city', null, array('id'=>'city', 'placeholder'=>'current city', 'required'=>'required')) }}
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="small-3 columns">
<label for="markerLat" class="right inline"><i class="fa fa-chevron-right"></i></label>
</div>
<div class="small-9 columns">
{{ Form::text('markerLat', null, array('id'=>'markerLat', 'placeholder'=>'latitude', 'required'=>'required')) }}
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="small-3 columns">
<label for="markerLng" class="right inline"><i class="fa fa-chevron-right"></i></label>
</div>
<div class="small-9 columns">
{{ Form::text('markerLng', null, array('id'=>'markerLng', 'placeholder'=>'longitude', 'required'=>'required')) }}
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="small-12 columns">
{{ Form::button('Update', array('class'=>'button small addMe postfix', 'id'=>'addMe'))}}
</div>
</div>
{{ Form::close() }}
</div>
the route i created is:
Route::controller('users', 'UsersController');
And in the controller file (UsersController) i have the following function:
public function putCoordinates() {
echo "It works!";
}
But so far, it doesn't seem to be working.. i've tried to change my openning form to:
{{ Form::open(array('url'=>'users/update', 'class'=>'form')) }}
but it didn't work, i dont get any error, i just press "update" and nothing happens..
Any help would be appreciated, i must be missing something very simple here.
Thanks!
