I'm trying to submit a form by clicking on a link. I disabled the redirection, but for some reason .submit() is not working... Here is what I have tried:
Effect: redirection stops, no form submission, no error message, stuck on the form page:
$('.jsubmit').click( function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$('form#fadmin').submit();
});
Effect: URL redirection, form not submitted, no error message
$('.jsubmit').click( function(e) {
$('form#fadmin').submit();
});
Effect: redirection stops, no form submission, no error message, stuck on form page:
$('.jsubmit').click( function(e) {
$('form#fadmin').submit();
return false;
});
The form:
<form action="" method="post" name="fadmin" class="inputform" id="fadmin">...</form>
And a bunch of other combination including trigger(), reversing the preventDefault() with unbind(). The only way I was able to submit the form was to trigger a click on the submit button but that is not really a solution in my case, because I need to use this on multiple pages and adding the button then hiding it is not something I would like to do on every page...
I have tried to run them in Firefox and IE with the same result.
Some other JS, jQ codes being used are: default bootstrap and respond provided by ZendFramework2 and ZFTables. Any help would be much appreciated!
EDIT:
The form had the following submit button:
<input id="mysubmit" type="submit" value="Register" name="submit" />
After removing this my first example above worked perfectly. Strange because there was no other forms or submit buttons on the page and nothing with the same name, id, type...
