Question

I want to submit a form immediately when a PHP file is visited in the browser. How can I do this: Preferably in jQuery.

Details:

I have a form that once submitted inserts some data into a database and sends the user to a separate page. On the separate page, I have code for another form that then directs users to pay for whatever they have selected.

I don’t want the user to have to click submit on the second form in order for them to pay. So is there a way to make that form submit automatically and thus direct the user to the payment stage?

Answer 1

Invoke the submit method:

$("#formID").submit();

So, at your second page:

<script>
$(function(){
    $("#your-formID").submit();
});
</script>
