Usually, $(form).serialize() is enough. If that doesn’t work, you can first use $(form).serializeArray() to encode form elements as an array of names and values, then apply encodeURIComponent to some fields that need to be escaped. At last, call $.param().

BTW, as a matter of fact, serialize is composed of $.param and $(form).serializeArray
