hi,
i wanna try to save the data from a form to a database before
submitting it to it's rightful "action" url. this is an opt-in form i
wanna work on.
i did this: $("form:last").bind("submit", submit_optin);
/* i altered the submit event of the opt-in form so it uses the
submit_optin function i created */
here's the submit_optin function:
var submit_optin = function(){
var pbform = {name:"opt-in name", email: "opt-in email"}; // this
is jus a sample data to be saved.
$.post("http://www.myurl.com/save_data";, pbform);
return true; // return true so it submits the form to it's rightful
"action" url (which is a url from a different domain/server)
};
now for the MAIN PROBLEM... if i set submit_optin to return false it
saves the data but if i set it to return true it just submits the form
without saving the data... now is there a way to stop and wait before
it saves the data before it submits the form? or is there any way i
can achieve my goal?
please help, thanks :-)
