a standard php include doesn’t work?

This is my script:

$value) {
mysql_query(“UPDATE items SET position=’”.$i.”‘ WHERE id =’”.$value.”‘”);
$i++;
}
?>

a standard php include doesn’t work?

<li id=”item_”>.        

function updateOrder()
{
var options =
{
method : ‘post’,
parameters : Sortable.serialize(‘myList’)
};
new Ajax.Request(‘reordermenu.php’, options);
}
Sortable.create(‘myList’,{ghosting:false,constraint:true,hoverclass:’over’,
onChange:function(element)
{
var totElement = ;
var newOrder = Sortable.serialize(element.parentNode);
for(i=1; i<=totElement; i++)
{
newOrder = newOrder.replace(“myList[]=”,”");
newOrder = newOrder.replace(“&”,”,”);
}
$(‘myList_serialize’).innerHTML = ‘New Order: ‘+newOrder;
$(‘newOrderInput’).value = newOrder;
},
onUpdate:updateOrder});

and here’s my script in the php page…

$value)
{
$updateSQL = sprintf(“UPDATE menu_main SET position=’”.$i.”‘ WHERE menuid =’”.$value.”‘”);
$results = mysql_query($updateSQL, $con) or die(mysql_error());
$i++;
}
mysql_close($con);
?>

what am I doing wrong???

<li id=”item_” style=”cursor:move”>

function updateOrder(){
var options = {
method : ‘post’,
parameters : Sortable.serialize(‘item_list’)
};
new Ajax.Request(‘server_items_reorder.php’, options);
}

Sortable.create(‘item_list’, {constraint:’vertical’, onUpdate:updateOrder});

This is my php code

// ADD YOUR DATABASE CONNECTION PARAMETERS HERE!!!
include (“connect.inc.php”);
$i=1;
foreach($_POST['item_list'] as $key=>$value) {
mysql_query(“UPDATE items SET position=’”.$i.”‘ WHERE id =’”.$value.”‘”) or die(“UPDATE items SET position=’”.$i.”‘ WHERE id =’”.$value.”‘”);
$i++;
}

The problem I have is that the updateOrder function does not fire the php script. The table in fact doesn’t update. I have checked the code time and time but cannot see any mistakes…

Can you help me…?
Thanks a lot in advance

I’ve added a save button and moved the function that calls the reorder script to the onclick event for that button.

I’ve also added a reset button. which currently works by simply refreshing the page. – onClick=”location.reload(true)”

However, there must be a way to reset the item order to how it was when the page first loaded without having to reload the whole page again?

Any idea how to do it?
