I have almost zero experience in web development, so sorry if this is a stupid question.
I have a status table that needs refreshing every 10 seconds. So in my view file i have:
<script src="jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
getStatus();
});
function getStatus() {
$('div#status').load('getstatus.php');
setTimeout("getStatus()",1000);
}
I’d like for the getstatus.php file to access the database connection and create the table that would be shown in the status div. If I drop the getstatus.php file in the base folder of the site, I get:
Fatal error: Class 'Yii' not found in /opt/lampp/htdocs/yii/www/my_project/getstatus.php on line 12
How can I access the Yii class in this case? Since I’m loading the getstatus.php file from javascript, I assume I cannot access the protected folder where all the other php scripts are.
Thank you.
