jQuery GET Not Working

Answer 1

I'm not a PHP guy, but does removing the leading / in your directory string (/admin/get_galleries) fix it? You'd append admin/get_galleries instead, since your link variable already has the trailing /.

I'm guessing that what you want to do is update some data via $.post then get the updated data using get? In that case you have an issue since $.post and $.get is asynchronous, meaning that the browser wont wait for it to finish before proceeding in the script.

What this means is that your script will call $.post and $.get almost simultaneously, instead, try placing your get inside the callback for $.post like so:

$('#submit').click(function() {

    var nam = $('#name').val();
    var par = $("#parentCategory").val();
    var dat = $("#catDate").val();

    $.post("<?php echo site_url('admin/add_gallery'); ?>", {name: nam, parent: par, cat_date: dat}, function() {
        if (par != 'undefined')
        {
            $('#next_tab').click()
        }
        else
        {
            $("#gallery").click(),
            $("#name").val('')
        }
        $.get("http://www.example.com/admin/get_galleries", function(gals)
        { // Get the Contents of Drop Down Gallery Select
            $("#galleryChoose").html(gals);
        }); 
    });



    alert('yop');       

});

CodeIgniter comes with $_GET disabled by default. You have to enable it in order to use it. Take a look here: CodeIgniter User Guide, Security
