JQuery :: .serialize() Does Not Serialize Modified Form
Oct 18, 2010
I am usingjquery-simplemodal.js plugin for displaying a modal form. My form is a separate .jspf file, being incuded into my main page. Here is my code:
function showPopup(popupContentId) {
//wrap the content div with the border and show the dialog with the following params
$.modal("<div class='layerBorderOuter'><div class='layerBorderInner'>" + $(popupContentId).html() + "</div></div>",
{modal:true,
[Code]...
.serialize() does not descend into anything other than a form to find inputs, and so to serialize inputs that are not in a form you must specify a selector that grabs each input. I just want to make sure I haven't erred.
//Standard usage $('form').serialize(); //looks for all the named input elements that are inside the element, serializes them //Without a form $('someDivOrTrOrOtherElementNotAnInput').serialize(); //does not serialize any inputs that are inside the element [Code]...
Is it possible to use serialize with just one form field? I am constructing a url to send with $.post and I need to convert the spaces and special characters of a field. Currently this does not seem to work: var news_letter_email = $('#newsletter_email').serialize();
I'm using $("form").serialize(), and then doing an AJAX request.JQuery automatically replaces spaces with the + character.(I couple replace the + character with a space on the server side, butI want the users to be able to enter the + character when they submit forms.)
I'm having a problem where the serialize method isn't serializing form elements that are added to the DOM after the page load. Specifically, when the user clicks on a button some elements are displayed in a dialog that are generated from my server and returned via AJAX. I'm converting from Prototype and didn't run into this problem.
I am trying to grab some form data that is type ="checkbox" and name=data[], the user can select just one or multiple items. I want to grab the selected items and store them in a javascript variable then I want to pass it into an jquery ajax function inside the data parameter, here is my code but it doesnt work
I have an array in a Javascript/jQuery code, and I want to pass it to a php file. It has an arbitrary number of elements in it. So I figured I would use $.post, HOWEVER, I'm sure how I would convert my array into a suitable data-string? $.post("test.php", data); << what should data be when I want to pass an entire array? I looked around a bit on Google and I found the function serialize which seems to do what I want. But it only works on forms and not on arrays...
recently I've updated jQuery from 1.3.2 to 1.4.2 and the serialize of elements where the user can set the order just stopped working. As I googled this, I found out, that the serialization was changed in 1.4.2, but I couldn't find any example that shows how to serialize in 1.4.2 and sen the data to php where the order is saved.
Here's my code that worked perfectly in 1.3.2: $("#list").sortable({ axis: 'y', handle : '.handle',
[Code].....
In jQuery documentation I found out, that you can set it back to the traditional serialization, but where can I set that. How can I get this code to work again normally?
I use to send an HTML array with a standard submit. So, if I send this form :<form
id = "browseForm" >[code]......
and this is not a "valid" HTML array : in fact when I get it on server, it looks like a variable.Tried also with serializeArray(), but it create another strange array. How can I send it as the first example?
I have a form with an id "modClassForm" when I try:$("#modClassForm").serialize() it returns an empty string ("") When I get the action attribute it's right so it is the form I was expecting. When I do the following:
$("#modClassForm input").val()
it returns "retret" (the contents of the input element in that form). So what is doing this? The only thing I can think of is that this form is loaded from ajax and then placed in the page using the .html(htmlString) method which is rather core to my design. This works in a whole lot of other browsers (IE 9, FF 6-8, Chrome 13-15 and Safari 5). So I know I could try to serialize the fields myself, but the form content has two modes and I'd have to construct a fairly large string and I'm not sure about encoding. Is there any other way to make serialize work? Some way to get it to recognize the contents of the form?
I'm using ajax to process a form. But my form has textareas in them. Its not passing the textarea values. Here is my javascript code: $.get( "process_order.php", $("#order").serialize(), function(data){ $('#loader').hide(); if(data) { pTag = "<img src='[URL]' width='200px'><br />Order Saved"; $('#popup').empty(); jQuery("#popup").append(pTag); jQuery("#popup").dialog('open'); } else { pTag = "<img src='[URL]' width='200px'><br />There was an error!<br /><font size='1px'>" + data + "</font>"; $('#popup').empty(); jQuery("#popup").append(pTag); jQuery("#popup").dialog('open'); }}, "html" ); I just have a simple textarea section and I NEED to allow HTML code in that text area.
I am using .serialize() to serialize my form... what I want to do is very simple yet I can not get it to work. What I want to do is exclude 2 fields from getting serialized... I tried using .not() without success... here is what I tried so far:
var formdata = $("#myform").not("#field1, #field2").serialize(); var formdata = $("#myform").not(document.getElementById('field1'), document.getElementById('field2')).serialize();
I want to serialize file name of the file being uploaded in the input type file <input type="file">, but when I serialized the form in jquery I just got the input type text and others not the file - how do I do it? is it something jquery fails to achieve?this is the html,
I have two variables that I would like to use jQuery serialize and send to a PHP file with a post. I don’t know how to format the command to serialize them. Here is the start of the code. How do you serialize the day and month variables?
var currentTime = new Date() var day = currentTime.getDate() var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
I can't get the serialize function that is supposed to create a query string to work.My HTML contains one form with one input of type "text" inside it. Both of these return an empty string.
var queryString = $('form').serialize(); var queryString = $('#myInputId').serialize();
I have created a jquery sortable list page where the user can move and drop elements between lists. The lists are <li>. how to get serialize to work. Here is a link for a serialize script that I am trying to use. [URL] I program in classic asp and don't understand javascript particularly well.
I have a data structure that is composed of an array of JavaScript objects (my own created classes) that I need to pass as a parameter to an URL:
I would like to know if there is a way to serialize this array, send it as a string, then deserialize it on the other side, resulting with the data structure again I am trying to avoid doing the serialization myself.
Each entry in the array holds an object of type Person:
I basically want to be able to store and retrieve a tree structure in greasemonkey. Unfortunately the GM_setValue and GM_getValue functions only take string key value pairs. Is there a native javascript function that will serialize the object so that it can be stored and retrieved as strings?
I need to write some object to SQLite database. In order to do that I need to serialize this object first.. It has many fields and some fields are objects with some fields by themselves.
I have read how to serialize with JSON but it doesn't work for me..
This is what I have done:
Code:
I get the beginning of the selection I made in expStartNode.
At this point I have expStartNode having an object I want to serialize.
