I have an email form on an HTML page and once you click submit

  • 0

I have an email form on an HTML page and once you click submit to send the form submission I would like the DIV “form” to update or be replaced to say a ‘Thank you’ message.

Tried Googling this, but didn’t have much luck finding anything specific that I can use.

Any ideas?

Thanks

    You can use jQuery.ajax method:

    $.ajax({
  url: 'ajax/send_mail.php',
  data: "message="+$('#some_field').val(),
  success: function(data) {
    //replace form (form is in div <div id="form"><form>Form data</form></form>)
    $('div#form').html('<p>Thank You!<p>');
    //or $('div#form').html(data); if you are returning message from send_mail.php
  }
});

    If You are having problems i can write You a whole script (i’m just in the mood and have some spare time):)

    UPDATE:

    Basically this is it.

    Copy/paste this as your form:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="hr-HR" lang="hr-HR">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>Title</title>
<script type="text/JavaScript"  charset="utf-8" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
 $('#submit').click(function(){
  $.ajax({
   type: "GET",
    url: 'sendit.php',
    dataType: 'json',
    data: $('form#mail_form').serialize(),
    success: function(data) {
    if(data.success==1){
   $('div#form').html(data.message);
   }
    }
  });
  return false;
 });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
 <div id="form">
  <form id="mail_form">
  <div>
   <input type="text" name="subject" id="subject"/>
  </div>
  <div>
   <textarea name="message" id="message"></textarea>
  </div>
  <div>
   <input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Send"/>
  </div>
  </form>
 </div>
</body>
</html>

    Copy/paste this as you sendit.php:
    You MUST validate this data

    //do stuff, send mail, save to database,...
 $data['success']=1;
 $data['message']='Thank You!';
 echo json_encode($data);
