Hello,
I was expecting the below scenario common, but couldn't find much help online. I have a form loaded through Ajax (say, create entity form). It is loaded through a button click (load) event
$("#bt-create").click(function(){
$ ('#pid').load('/controller/vehicleModel/create3');
return false;
});
the response (a form) is written in to the pid element. The name and id of the form is ajax-form, and the submit event is attached to an ajax post request
$(function() {
$("#ajax-form").submit(function(){
// do something...
var url = "/app/controller/save"
$.post(url, $(this).serialize(), function(data) {
alert( data ) ; /// alert data from server
});
I could make the above ajax operations individually. That is the ajax post operation succeeds if it calls from a static html file. But if I chain the requests (after completing the first), so that it calls from the output form generated by the first request, nothing happens. I could see the post method is called through firebug.
Is there a better way to handle above flow?
One more interesting thing I noticed. As you could see, I use grails as my platform. If I keep the javascripts in the main.gsp (master layout), the submit event would not register as the breakpoint is not hit in firebug. But, if I define the javascript in the template file (which renders the form above), the breakpoint is hit, but as I explained, the action is not called at the controller. I changes the javascript to the head section but same result.
any help greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Babu.
