I was using the jQuery form plugin to process form submission (found here) on my page but now have to switch to using an purely jQuery AJAX based method (without using any the form plugin but I can use jQuery). What would be the best method of achieving this? I'm having difficulty translating it across. What would an ideal solution look like?
// prepare the form when the DOM is ready
$(document).ready(function() {
var options = {
target: '#result',
beforeSubmit: showRequest,
success: showResponse
};
// bind to the form's submit event
$('#booking').submit(function() {
$(this).ajaxSubmit(options);
return false;
});
});
// pre-submit callback
function showRequest(formData, jqForm, options) {
var queryString = $.param(formData);
// alert('About to submit: \n\n' + queryString);
}
// post-submit callback
function showResponse(responseText, statusText, xhr, $form) {
$('#last-step').fadeOut(300, function() {
$('#result').html(responseText).fadeIn(300);
});
}
