I initiate a function after an ajax load(), but the function I intimate calls upon an additional function, which isn't working. How do I initiate ajaxstuff()
after load()
?
function ajaxstuff(data) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "do-it.php",
data: {data},
success: function() {
console.log('I got this far'); // this doesn't work / isn't called
}
});
}
function doit() {
$('form').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var formData = new FormData(this);
console.log('I got this far'); // this works
ajaxstuff(formData);
}
}
$('.popup-loader').click(function() {
$(this).append('<div class="popup"></div>');
$('.popup').load('popup.php', function() {
doit(); // this works
}
});
Syntax error in ajaxstuff
function. data: {data},
, probably should be data: data,
Also when you're passing a FormData object to $.ajax, you have to specify processData: false
and contentType: false
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "do-it.php",
data: data,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function() {
console.log('I got this far');
}
});
Check for errors in your console, also, in your AJAX add an async
option. set it to FALSE ("Setting async to false means that the statement you are calling has to complete before the next statement in your function can be called"):
function ajaxstuff(data) {
$.ajax({
async: false,
type: "POST",
url: "do-it.php",
data: data,
success: function(result) {
console.log(result); //check in your console for errors
}
});
}
