Basically i have submitted the form data by using jquery event in order to prevent page reload. Now , the informations of the form are not being displayed?
$("#btn-ser1").click(function() {
$("#form").submit(function() {
alert("you are submitting" + $(this).serialize());
});
});<html>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<body>
<form method="post" id="form">
First Name :
<input name="fname">Last Name :
<input name="lname">Address :
<input name="address">Contact No. :
<input name="contact">Country:
<input name="country">City:
<input name="city">
</form>
<button type="button" id="btn-ser1">Serialize</button>
</body>
</html></div>
You aren't submitting, neither preventing the default action. You need:
$("#btn-ser1").click(function () {
// remove this event handler « #1
// $("#form").submit(function (e) {
// prevent refresh or default action « #2
e.preventDefault();
// change $(this) to $("#form") as you are binding it to the button, not the form.
alert("you are submitting" + $("#form").serialize());
// submit to the server « #3
$.post("path/to/post", $("#form").serialize());
// });
});
You forgot to do the #1, #2 and #3 as mentioned.
Your button is the incorrect type. This only works with a "Submit" button. Use this HTML snippet instead:
<button type="submit" id="btn-ser1">Serialize</button>
