HTML Code
HTML file - registration.html<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Registration</title> </head> <body> <form id="registration_form" name="registration_form" action="registration.php" method="POST"> <label>Full Name: </label> <input type="text" name="full_name" id="full_name" placeholder="Please enter Name" /> <label>Email: </label> <input type="text" name="email" id="email" placeholder="Please enter an Email" /> <label>Mobile: </label> <input type="text" name="mobile" id="mobile" placeholder="Please enter Mobile" /> <label>Address: </label> <textarea name="address" id="address" placeholder="Please enter an Address" /></textarea> </form> <script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script> <!-- Master jQuery to make the functions work --> <script src="js/custom.js"></script> <!-- Custom js file for custom functions like ajax call etc --> </body> </html>
Custom JavaScript Code
JavaScript file - custom.js/***** This code defines the ajax call *****/
$("#registration_form").submit(function(){
$.ajax({
url: $("#registration_form").attr("action"), /* gets the URL of form */
data: $("#registration_form").serialize(), /* serialize function collects the form data */
type: "POST", /* sets the form submission method */
dataType: "JSON", /* this is useful to get the response in an ajax format */
success: function(response){
/* an action on the successful response */
},
error(xhr,status,error){
/* an action on error */
}
});
});
