send data POST

[ueon]

I'm trying to make it so that when I click on the button, data in the 3 input fields above is sent to education.php as POST data. I spend the day looking at the jQuery and is having a hard time applying it since I don't have a javascript background. I'm barely getting by with AJAX and AJAX is a crucial component in this project.

 

what is the AJAX/jQuery snippet to make the following code work?

 

echo "<input id='uni' value='$uni' type='text' />";

echo "<input id='class' value='$class' type='text' />";

echo "<input id='program' value='$program' type='text' />";

echo "<input id='submitedcu' value='Save Education' type='submit' />

this will take you step by step on creating an XMLHttpResponse via AJAX and submit data via POST/GET methods

I'm not going to give you the code that does what you want. But I will give an attempt to explain how to do it.

First you need to get the values from the input elements which would look something like this using jQuery.

 

jQuery('input#your_id_attribute_here').val();

You can get more info from the manual here http://api.jquery.com/val/
