ajax inside to submit form code example

Example 1: jQuery AJAX form submit

// jQuery ajax form submit example, runs when form is submitted
$("#myFormID").submit(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault(); // prevent actual form submit
    var form = $(this);
    var url = form.attr('action'); //get submit url [replace url here if desired]
    $.ajax({
         type: "POST",
         url: url,
         data: form.serialize(), // serializes form input
         success: function(data){
             console.log(data);
         }
    });
});

Example 2: Sending an Ajax request before form submit

$('form').submit(function(e) { 

     // this code prevents form from actually being submitted
     e.preventDefault();
     e.returnValue = false;

     // some validation code here: if valid, add podkres1 class

     if ($('input.podkres1').length > 0) { 
        // do nothing
     } else {

        var $form = $(this);

        // this is the important part. you want to submit
        // the form but only after the ajax call is completed
         $.ajax({ 
             type: 'post',
             url: someUrl, 
             context: $form, // context will be "this" in your handlers
             success: function() { // your success handler
             },
             error: function() { // your error handler
             },
             complete: function() { 
                // make sure that you are no longer handling the submit event; clear handler
                this.off('submit');
                // actually submit the form
                this.submit();
             }
         });
     }
});
