How to submit an HTML form without redirection

forms, html, javascript, jquery

Solution

In order to achieve what you want, you need to use jQuery Ajax as below:

$('#myForm').submit(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    $.ajax({
        url: '/Car/Edit/17/',
        type: 'post',
        data:$('#myForm').serialize(),
        success:function(){
            // Whatever you want to do after the form is successfully submitted
        }
    });
});

Also try this one:

function SubForm(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    var url = $(this).closest('form').attr('action'),
    data = $(this).closest('form').serialize();
    $.ajax({
        url: url,
        type: 'post',
        data: data,
        success: function(){
           // Whatever you want to do after the form is successfully submitted
       }
   });
}

Final solution

This worked flawlessly. I call this function from `Html.ActionLink(...)`

function SubForm (){
    $.ajax({
        url: '/Person/Edit/@Model.Id/',
        type: 'post',
        data: $('#myForm').serialize(),
        success: function(){
            alert("worked");
        }
    });
}

Problem

If I have a form like this, ``` <form action="/Car/Edit/17" id="myForm" method="post" name="myForm"> ... </form> ``` how can I submit it without redirecting to another view by JavaScript/jQuery? I read plenty of answers from Stack Overflow, but all of them redirect me to the view returned by the POST function.
