send data from inputs like form by java script [duplicate] - javascript

How to submit a form with JavaScript by clicking a link?
(9 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
I have a table and every row has a form:
<td><input type="date" id='time'/></td>
<td><input type="text" id='info'/></td>
<td><input type="text" id='money'/></td>
<td><input type="buttond" id="submit_edit" value="edit"/></td>
The problem is I can't submit a form like this, so I need to submit this with JavaScript, and I need to submit it using the POST method. I want the POST method to do this as one row; I will change the id of the inputs later.
This is not like this question: How to submit a form with JavaScript by clicking a link?
I want to send data manually by id. The correct thing I need is like this
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#submit_edit").click(function(){
var time=$("#time").val();
var info=$("#info").val();
var money=$("#money").val();
$.ajax(
{
type: "POST",
url: "edit.php",
data: {time:time , info:info,:money:money},
success: function(html)
{
$("#edit_result").html(html).show();
}
});
});
});

If you want to do it via ajax it's like this:
// this is the id of the form
$("#form_id").submit(function() {
url="page.php";
data1=$("#selector").val();
data2="value";
$.ajax({
datatype:"html",
type: "POST",
url: url,
data: {data1:data1,data2:data2},
success: function(html)
{
alert(html);
}
});
});

you have jquery ?
First
if not, try this.
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

<input type="submit" name="edit" id="button_submit"/>
ur form
<form action="" method="POST" id="form">
then the jquery
$('#button_submit').click(function(){
$('#form').submit();
});

AJAX submit multipart form within textarea and inputs [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
jQuery AJAX file upload PHP
(5 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
Well, I have tried a lot of JS codes to post one form with multiple data [2 Files & 1 textarea] and they didn't work well.
But How to send non-empty form data to PHP using AJAX?
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<textarea id="acas"></textarea>
<input id="uimage" type="file" name="image" accept=".png,.jpg,.gif"/>
<input id="uaudio" type="file" name="audio" accept=".mp3"/>
<input id="armes" style="display: none;" name="send" type="submit"/>
</form>
By default I use this JS code below to submit form, But it reloads page:
$("#acas").on('keydown', function(e) {
if (e.key == "Enter") {
if (e.shiftKey) {
} else {
e.preventDefault();
$("#armes").click();
}
}
});
Use this code
$(document).on('submit', 'form', function (e)
{
var form = new FormData(this);
jQuery.ajax({
url: "",
method: 'POST',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
dataType: "json",
data: form,
success: function (response)
{
}
});
return false;
});

Can I dynamically select GET or POST type in an AJAX request?

Consider code below that intercepts form submit event, in this case from two different forms.
$("#aaa, #bbb").submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var form = $(this);
var url = form.attr('action');
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: url,
data: form.serialize(),
success: function(data) {
$("#ccc").html(data);
}
});
});
Question - if #aaa requires GET, but #bbb requires POST, can I detect and alter the type parameter in the above code? How?
My naive solution would be to duplicate the above code twice, one for #aaa only and one for #bbb and have GET in one block and POST in the other ..
So use the event and read the method you set on the form.
$("form").on("submit", function(evt) {
evt.preventDefault();
console.log(evt.target.method);
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form method="get">
<button>Get</button>
</form>
<form method="post">
<button>Post</button>
</form>

Get input field value in same page without refreshing page php

I am trying to send my input value to a code segment in the same page, but it doesn't work. Right now, I can't get the value in the code segment. This is my current code:
<?php
if ($section == 'codesegment') {
if ($_GET['hour']) {
echo $_GET['hour'];
//here i want call my method to update db with this value of hour...
}
if ($section == 'viewsegment') {
?>
<form id="my_form" action="#" method="Get">
<input name="hour" id="hour" type="text" />
<input id="submit_form" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<script>
var submit_button = $('#submit_form');
submit_button.click(function() {
var hour = $('#hour').val();
var data = '&hour=' + hour;
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: '',
data: data,
success:function(html){
update_div.html(html);
}
});
});
</script>
Any advice?
If you want to get the value without refresh your page you have to use javascript, you can try this:
$('#hour').onchange = function () {
//type your code here
}
By the way, your php script is server side, according to this, you can't use the value without post/submit/refresh
Whenever you are using
<input type="submit">
it sends the data to the action of the form, so whenever you are clicking the submit button before the onclick function gets called, it sends the data to the action and the page gets refreshed. So instead of using input element try something like this
<button id="submit_form"> Submit </button>
two things,
1. as yesh said you need to change the input submit to button type=button and add an onClick function on that button. Or you can give a the javascript function inside a function line function sampleFn(){} and call this function onSubmit of form.
2. You need to give the javascript inside document.ready function since the script execute before the dom loading and the var submit_button = $('#submit_form'); may not found. In that case there will be an error in the browser console.
Try to add errors in the post since it will help to debug easily.
It's not possible to do on the same page. you can write ajax call to another page with data where you can do the functions with the data.
Something like this
//form.php
<form id="hour-form">
<input type="text" name="hour" id="hour">
<input type="submit" name="hour-submit" >
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(document).on('submit', '#hour-form', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var data = $('#hour').val();
$.ajax({
url: "post.php",
method: "POST",
data: {'hour':data},
success: function(data)
{
//if you want to do some js functions
if(data == "success")
{
alert("Data Saved");
}
}
});
});
});
//post.php
if(isset($_POST['hour']))
{
// do the php functions
echo "success";
}

Submitting form with AJAX not working. It ignores ajax

I've never used Ajax before, but from researching and other posts here it looks like it should be able to run a form submit code without having to reload the page, but it doesn't seem to work.
It just redirects to ajax_submit.php as if the js file isn't there. I was trying to use Ajax to get to ajax_submit without reloading anything.
Is what i'm trying to do even possible?
HTML form:
<form class="ajax_form" action="ajax_submit.php" method="post">
<input class="input" id="license" type="text" name="license" placeholder="License" value="<?php echo htmlentities($person['license1']); ?>" />
<input class="input" id="license_number" type="text" name="license_number" placeholder="License number" value="<?php echo htmlentities($person['license_number1']); ?>" />
<input type="submit" class="form_button" name="submit_license1" value="Save"/>
<input type="submit" class="form_button" name="clear1" value="Clear"/>
</form>
in scripts.js file:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.ajax_form').submit(function (event) {
alert('ok');
event.preventDefault();
var form = $(this);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "ajax_submit.php",//form.attr('action'),
data: form.serialize(),
success: function (data) {alert('ok');}
});
});
});
in ajax_submit.php:
require_once("functions.php");
require_once("session.php");
include("open_db.php");
if(isset($_POST["submit_license1"])){
//query to insert
}elseif(isset($_POST['clear1'])) {
//query to delete
}
I have "<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>"
in the html head
form.serialize() doesn't know which button was used to submit the form, so it can't include any buttons in the result. So when the PHP script checks which submit button is set in $_POST, neither of them will match.
Instead of using a handler on the submit event, use a click handler on the buttons, and add the button's name and value to the data parameter.
$(":submit").click(function(event) {
alert('ok');
event.preventDefault();
var form = $(this.form);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "ajax_submit.php",//form.attr('action'),
data: form.serialize() + '&' + this.name + '=' + this.value,
success: function (data) {alert('ok');}
});
});
Your ajax call is working perfectly. You have few conceptual error with your code -
form.serialize() will not attach submit button's info.
If you want to clear your form, you can do it using something like this
$('#resetForm').click(function(){
$('.ajax_form')[0].reset();
});
Lastly complete your task & return success or failed value to ajax call using echo like echo 'successful' or echo failed etc. Use an else condition with your code. It will be more clearer to you.
Remove the "action" and "method" attributes from the form. You shouldn't need them.

Prevent page reload and redirect on form submit ajax/jquery

I have looked through all the similar posts out there but nothing seems to help. This is what I have
HTML:
<section>
<form id="contact-form" action="" method="post">
<fieldset>
<input id="name" name="name" placeholder="Name" type="text" />
<input id="email" name="email" placeholder="Email" type="text" />
<textarea id="comments" name="comments" placeholder="Message"></textarea>
<div class="12u">
Send Message
Clear Form
</div>
<ul id="response"></ul>
</fieldset>
</form>
</section>
JavaScript/jQuery:
function sendForm() {
var name = $('input#name').val();
var email = $('input#email').val();
var comments = $('textarea#comments').val();
var formData = 'name=' + name + '&email=' + email + '&comments=' + comments;
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: 'js/sendEmail.php',
data: formData,
success: function(results) {
$('ul#response').html(results);
}
}); // end ajax
}
What I am unable to do is prevent the page refresh when the #form-button-submit is pressed. I tried return false; I tried preventDefault() and every combination including return false; inside the onClick. I also tried using input type="button" and type="submit" instead and same result. I can't solve this and it is driving be nuts. If at all possible I would rather use the hyperlink due to some design things.
I would really appreciate your help on this.
Modify the function like this:
function sendForm(e){
e.preventDefault();
}
And as comment mentions, pass the event:
onclick = sendForm(event);
Update 2:
$('#form-button-submit').on('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var name = $('input#name').val(),
email = $('input#email').val(),
comments = $('textarea#comments').val(),
formData = 'name=' + name + '&email=' + email + '&comments=' + comments;
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: 'js/sendEmail.php',
data: formData,
success: function(results) {
$('ul#response').html(results);
}
});
});
function sendForm(){
// all your code
return false;
}
I was also bit engaged in finding solution to this problem, and so far the best working method I found was this-
Try using XHR to send request to any url, instead of $.ajax()...I know it sounds bit weird but try it out!
Example-
<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="test-form">
var testForm = document.getElementById('test-form');
testForm.onsubmit = function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
// POST to any url
request.open('POST', some_url, false);
var formData = new FormData(document.getElementById('test-form'));
request.send(formData);
This would send your data successfully ...without page reload.
Have you tried using
function sendForm(event){
event.preventDefault();
}
Simple and Complete working code
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#contact-form").submit(function() {
$("#loading").show().fadeIn('slow');
$("#response").hide().fadeOut('slow');
var frm = $('#contact-form');
$.ajax({
type: frm.attr('method'),
url: 'url.php',
data: frm.serialize(),
success: function (data) {
$('#response').html(data);
$("#loading").hide().fadeOut('slow');
$("#response").slideDown();
}, error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown){
console.log(" The following error occured: "+ textStatus, errorThrown );
} });
return false;
});
});
</script>
#loading could be an image or something to be shown when the form is processing, to use the code simply create a form with ID contact-form
Another way to avoid the form from being submitted is to place the button outside of the form. I had existing code that was working and created a new page based on the working code and wrote the html like this:
<form id="getPatientsForm">
Enter URL for patient server
<br/><br/>
<input name="forwardToUrl" type="hidden" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/patient/patientList.jsp" />
<input name="patientRootUrl" size="100"></input>
<br/><br/>
<button onclick="javascript:postGetPatientsForm();">Connect to Server</button>
</form>
This form cause the undesirable redirect described above. Changing the html to what is shown below fixed the problem.
<form id="getPatientsForm">
Enter URL for patient server
<br/><br/>
<input name="forwardToUrl" type="hidden" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/patient/patientList.jsp" />
<input name="patientRootUrl" size="100"></input>
<br/><br/>
</form>
<button onclick="javascript:postGetPatientsForm();">Connect to Server</button>
I expect anyone to understand my idea very well as it's a very simple idea.
give your required form itself an id or you can get it by any other way you prefer.
in the form input "submit" call an onclick method from your javascript file.
in this method make a variable refer to your from id the addEventListener on it and make a preventDefault method on "submit" not on "click".
To clarify that see this:
// element refers to the form DOM after you got it in a variable called element for example:
element.addEventListener('submit', (e) => {
e.preventDefault();
// rest of your code goes here
});
The idea in brief is to deal with the form by submit event after dealing with submit button by click event.
Whatever is your needs inside this method, it will work now without refresh :)
Just be sure to deal with ajax in the right way and you will be done.
Of course it will work only with forms.
The way I approached this: I removed the entire form tag and placed all the form elements such as input, textarea tags inside a div and used one button to call a javascript function. Like this:
<div id="myform">
<textarea name="textarea" class="form-control">Hello World</textarea>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary"
onclick="javascript:sendRequest()">Save
changes</button>
<div>
Javascript:
function sendRequest() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/some/url/edit/",
data: {
data: $("#myform textarea").val()
},
success: function (data, status, jqXHR) {
console.log(data);
if (data == 'success') {
$(`#mymodal`).modal('hide');
}
}
});
return true;
}
I thought why use a form when we are sending the actual request using AJAX. This approach may need extra effort to do things like resetting the form elements but it works for me.
Note:
The above answers are more elegant than this but my use case was a little different. My webpage had many forms and I didn't think registering event listeners to every submit button was a good way to go. So, I made each submit button call the sendRequest() function.
