I have an ajax form in asp.net mvc which is as simple as this:
<% using (this.Ajax.BeginForm("LatestBlogPosts", "Blog", null, new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "blogPostPanel" }, new {
id = "BlogPostForm" })) { %>
<div class="panel" id="blogPostPanel">
<img src="/images/ajax-loader.gif" alt="ajax-loader" />
</div>
<% } %>
I want to invoke the form submit when document is loaded. This should supposedly, call the controller's action and return a result that should be replaced with the placeholder DIV. If I add a SUBMIT button to the form, it works perfectly, but when I invoke the submit via jQuery, the whole page is refreshed, and the content returned by the server is displayed in the newly displayed page. Here's my jQuery code:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#BlogPostForm").submit();
});
</script>
Anyway to do this?
