i have few textbox on the form and when the user submit i want to capture the data and insert into db
here is what my code looks like
beforeSubmit: function(data)
{ // called just before the form is submitted
var item = $("[id$='item']");
var category = $("[id$='category']");
var record = $("[id$='record']");
var json = "{'ItemName':'" + escape(item.val()) + "','CategoryID':'" + category.val() + "','RecordID':'" + record.val() + "'}";
var ajaxPage = "DataProcessor.aspx?Save=1"; //this page is where data is to be retrieved and processed
var options =
{
type: "POST",
url: ajaxPage,
data: json,
contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
async: false,
success: function(response)
{
alert("success: " + response);
},
error: function(msg)
{
alert("failed: " + msg);
}
};
//execute the ajax call and get a response
var returnText = $.ajax(options).responseText;
if (returnText == 1) {
record.html(returnText);
$("#divMsg").html("<font color=blue>Record saved successfully.</font>");
}
else {
record.html(returnText);
$("#divMsg").html("<font color=red>Record not saved successfully.</font>");
}
// $("#data").html("<font color=blue>Data sent to the server :</font> <br />" + $.param(data));
},
here is what is the Data sent to the server: if i uncomment this line:
// $("#data").html("Data sent to the server : " + $.param(data));

DataProcessor.aspx.cs:
public partial class DataProcessor : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
ProcessAjaxRequest();
}
private void ProcessAjaxRequest()
{
if (Request.ContentType.Contains("json") && Request.QueryString["Save"] != null)
SaveMyData();
}
private void SaveMyData()
{
//data passed in as JSON format
System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(Request.InputStream);
string line = "";
line = sr.ReadToEnd();
//This is all you need to parse JSON string into an JObject.
//Require namespace Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
JObject jo = JObject.Parse(line);
Console.WriteLine((string)jo["RecordID"]);
Console.WriteLine(Server.UrlDecode((string)jo["ItemName"])); //use Server.UrlDecode to reverse the text that was escaped before it was passed in to its original state
Response.Write((string)jo["CategoryID"]); //this send to responseText of .ajax(options).responseText
}
}
the above code is not working and i need a way to capture the values before i insert into db.
any help?
Thanks.
