Here's the code

JavaScript

<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
    $('a.like').click(function () {
        var next = $(this).next()
        var test = $(this).next().html();
        if ($(this).attr('class') == 'like') {
            $.post("like.cfm", {
                postid: $(this).attr("postid"),
                uid: $(this).attr("uid")
            });
 
            $(this).removeClass('like').addClass('unlike').html('Unlike');
 
            test++;
 
        } else if ($(this).attr('class') == 'unlike') {
            $.post("unlike.cfm", {
                pageID: $(this).attr("postid")
            });
 
            $(this).removeClass('unlike').addClass('like').html('Like');
 
            test--;
        }
        next.html(test);
    });
});
</script>

Here's the html

<br>

Solution 1

Unlike is another link. It can't satisfy this condition, because you have attached click event only for the link having "like" class.

JavaScript

$('a.like').click(function (){
    //.....
});

If you remove the class selector, then Unlike link will also work. That is...

JavaScript

$('a').click(function (){
    //.....
});
