I've got several div id's, each containing a different client. I want to be able to click the delete button and using ajax and jquery delete the specific div from the database. I'm getting success in AJAX but it's not deleting anything from the DB. And then obviously, upon deletion, I would like the container to reload dynamically. help!!!

function DeleteClient(){

 var yes = confirm("Whoa there chief! Do you really want to DELETE this client?");

 if (yes == 1) {
 dataToLoad = 'clientID=' + clientID + '&deleteclient=yes',

 $.ajax({
 type: 'post',
 url: '/clients/controller.php',
 datatype: 'html',
 data: dataToLoad,
 success: function(html) {
 alert('Client' + clientID + ' should have been deleted from the database.');
 $('#clientscontainer').html(html); 
 },
 error: function() {
 alert('error');
 }});};
 };
