Using ajax calls in template - 403 Forbidden Error

I am trying to use Ajax to pass some data to php file from template.

In template in javascript:

Code:

 

$(document).ready(function() {

$(".redeem-button").click(function(){

            var test = 'test';

            $.ajax({

                url: 'modules/Custom/ajaxtest.php',

                data: {test: test},

                type: 'POST',

                success: function (data) {

                    $(".apply-left").html(data);

                }

            });

        });

});

When I test it, I get this error in console:

Code:

POST http://localhost/xcart/modules/Custom/ajaxtest.php 403 (Forbidden)

I tried to add:

Code:

require_once 'http://localhost/xcart/auth.php';

in ajaxtest.php but still no luck...

How do I make it work?

Usually, you don't call the modules directory directly in a script. Try placing your ajaxtest.php in the root directory.

skin/common_files/modules/Customer_Reviews/ajax.rating.js (calls loadBlock for rating_bar)
skin/common_files/js/ajax.js (loadBlock calls get_block.php)
get_block.php
modules/Customer_Reviews/func.php (func_ajax_block_rating_bar())

Moving ajaxtest.php to root solved the problem! Thanks a lot, sir!

Off the top of my head you may want to start with one of the Block examples like:
skin/common_files/modules/Customer_Reviews/ajax.rating.js (calls loadBlock for rating_bar)
skin/common_files/js/ajax.js (loadBlock calls get_block.php)
get_block.php
modules/Customer_Reviews/func.php (func_ajax_block_rating_bar())

Thanks for these references, already found some good bits there!
