That worked. Looks like I just had the parameters backwards on that.

Now one more question since you have been so helpful. How would I make this form after submitted go back to same page and Display above form the result from the action of the form submit.

Awww yeah That's great...

In order to do that you'll have to submit the page via Ajax, I haven't tested the code but here it is according to your form

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
      $('form').submit(function(e){
       
           $.ajax({
                type: 'post',
                url: 'user_rank_change.php',
                data: $('form').serialize(),
                success: function(result) {
                       alert(result);
                }
           });
           e.preventdefault(); //Doesn't allow page to refresh
      });
});
</script>

Paste this code after your </body> tag and tell me if any error comes or it works

I added it after body tags and tried it but the page still refreshes and goes to blank page with the results

Did you add the Jquery to your document?

Put this inside head tag

Code:

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

It's working but still goes to blank page with results after it shows pop-up

Typo detected OMG I hate these mistakes

Replace this line in the Jquery code

Code:

e.preventdefault(); //Doesn't allow page to refresh

with this

Code:

e.preventDefault();

The d was to be uppercase D, Yikes

Thanks Bud, You have taught me a lot since I am new to PHP that helps more then you think. Is there a way to style the pop-up window? Or is that the only way it will show up?

That alert is Javascripts default prompt but you can make a custom popup using Jquery, HTML and CSS. Lemme show you a simple way to displaying that response on the HTML document via DOM (In simple words, It allows you to easily manipulate HTML components)

In your body tag, paste this any where:

Code:

<div id="response"></div>

Now edit the following line in your Jquery

Code:

alert(result);

By

Code:

$('#response').html("<b>" + result + "</b>")

Now your response from the PHP Script will be displayed on the HTML document inside the div tags, You won't see a popup. Now use CSS and more Jquery to give that div some eye candy factor.

There are plugins available for this task in case you wanna get some ideas:
