  • 0

In jQuery, if I assign class=auto_submit_form to a form, it will be submitted whenever any element is changed, with the following code:

/* automatically submit if any element in the form changes */ $(function() {   $('.auto_submit_form').change(function() {     this.submit();   }); });

However, if I want to the form to submit only when specified elements are changed:

/* submit if elements of class=auto_submit_item in the form changes */ $(function() {   $('.auto_submit_item').change(function() {     $(this).parents().filter('form').submit();   }); });

I’m just learning jQuery. Is there a better way to do this?

  1.  /* submit if elements of class=auto_submit_item in the form changes */ $(function() {    $('.auto_submit_item').change(function() {      $('form').submit();    });  });

    Assumes you only have one form on the page. If not, you’ll need to do select the form that is an ancestor of the current element using $(this).parents('form').submit()
