Load data from database on click + Zend Framework

Question

I want to load data from the database when i click on an a link. My links are data from a database. This is how I do it in my view:

<div id="wijken">
              <ul>
            <?php foreach($this->districts as $districts) : ?>
              <li><a><?php echo $this->escape($districts->wijk); ?></a></li>       
            <?php endforeach; ?>
              </ul>
          </div>

This is how it looks: enter image description here

Now I want that when you click on a link that I can load data and show data from the database depending on the link you clicked. How can I do this?

I tried it with javascript. Is it possible that you can load data with ajax call to an action in a controller?

My javascript:

$("#wijken ul li a").click(function(e){  

var wijk = ($(this).text());

$.ajax({ 

  type: "POST",
  url: "index/test",                    
  data: "wijk",                        

  dataType: 'json',                
  success: function(rows)          
  {
      alert("worked!");

  }, 
  error: function(error){
      alert("didn't worked!");
  }

  });

Could this work or not?

I didn't work, i get always error. But maybe it's my testaction that doesn't work. I want to know if it's possible to do this before I check that. — nielsv

Check your php_error log what says? you can find path to error_log in phpinfo() or you can call your Ajax action to see error(maybe), just in browser type localhost/project/index/test/wijk and ypu will see json string or error — tasmaniski
