[jQuery] can't quite finish this ...
Hi
To call me a newbie would be to give newbies a bad name. Had a
regular form working and wanted to add validation. Got the jquery
thing working perfectly. to a point.
Have this:
<form class="cmxform" id="form1" name="aedrec" method="GET" action=""
onKeyUp="highlight(event)" onClick="highlight(event)">
Had this:
<form name="aedrec" method="GET" action="saverec.php"
onKeyUp="highlight(event)" onClick="highlight(event)">
What I am missing is how to 'pass' the form to saverec.php.
Got this from the example:
$.validator.setDefaults({
submitHandler: function() { alert("submitted!"); }
});
Obviosuly did nothing but pop an alert. I get that this will do
nothing. That, however, doesn;t help me much. So I tried this:
$("#form1").validate({
submitHandler: function(form1) {
$(form1).ajaxsubmit() ;
});
What I get from this is a mysql error as it seems to be calling
itself, as opposed to saverec.php, whihc, of course, makes perfect
sense, since I have in no way told it to do so...
I have been reading ALOT and have spent the past few days learning
alot of javascript from page 1, but call me stoopid or just burnt, but
I can't find how to do this simple but obviously pertinent thing. Can
I be helped without having to talk a lot of javascript? I'm a very
quick learner and can easily decipher code as part of the learning
process (although this ajax thing is just flying over my head like a
blond at a spelling bee, I will admit) .
Little help?
regards
Owen
