Prevent page reload and redirect on form submit ajax/jquery
function sendForm(){
// all your code
return false;
}
I was also bit engaged in finding solution to this problem, and so far the best working method I found was this-
Try using XHR to send request to any url, instead of $.ajax()...I know it sounds bit weird but try it out!
Example-
<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="test-form">
var testForm = document.getElementById('test-form');
testForm.onsubmit = function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
var request = new XMLHttpRequest();
// POST to any url
request.open('POST', some_url, false);
var formData = new FormData(document.getElementById('test-form'));
request.send(formData);
This would send your data successfully ...without page reload.
Modify the function like this:
function sendForm(e){
e.preventDefault();
}
And as comment mentions, pass the event:
onclick = sendForm(event);
Update 2:
$('#form-button-submit').on('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var name = $('input#name').val(),
email = $('input#email').val(),
comments = $('textarea#comments').val(),
formData = 'name=' + name + '&email=' + email + '&comments=' + comments;
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: 'js/sendEmail.php',
data: formData,
success: function(results) {
$('ul#response').html(results);
}
});
});
