I am trying to delete data from database via ajax.

HTML:

@foreach($a as $lis)
  //some code
  <a href="#" class="delteadd" id="{{$lis['id']}}">Delete</a>
  //click action perform on this link                  
@endforeach

My ajax code:

$('body').on('click', '.delteadd', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
//alert('am i here');
if (confirm('Are you sure you want to Delete Ad ?')) {
    var id = $(this).attr('id');
    $.ajax({
        method: "POST",
        url: "{{url()}}/delteadd",
        }).done(function( msg ) {
        if(msg.error == 0){
            //$('.sucess-status-update').html(msg.message);
            alert(msg.message);
        }else{
            alert(msg.message);
            //$('.error-favourite-message').html(msg.message);
        }
    });
} else {
    return false;
}
});

This is my query to fetch data from database...

$a = Test::with('hitsCount')->where('userid', $id)->get()->toArray();

But when i click on Delete link data not deleted and show csrf_token mismatch...

The best way to solve this problem "X-CSRF-TOKEN" is to add the following code to your main layout, and continue making your ajax calls normally:

In header

<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}" />

In script

<script type="text/javascript">
$.ajaxSetup({
    headers: {
        'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
    }
});
</script>
