my following javascript function is sending the form multiple times. 4 to 9 posts at the same time and I cannot get it right now.
Here is the function:
function formModal(url, id, type, text, send_type) {
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#' + id).on('submit', function (e) { //id of form
$.ajax({
url: url, // PHP file
data: $(this).serialize(),
type: send_type,
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
// Success Alert
swal({
html: true,
title: text,
type: type,
timer: 1500,
showConfirmButton: false
});
setTimeout(function () {
// Refresh after 2 seconds
window.location.href = "";
}, 2200);
},
error: function (data) {
//Error Alert
swal("Oops...", "Something went wrong :(", "error");
}
});
e.preventDefault(); //This is to Avoid Page Refresh and Fire the Event "Click"
});
});
};
The function will be used in a HTML/ PHP Script:
<script> formModal('/dashboard_scripts/module/wiki/edit_wiki_article.php', 'edit_article', 'success', 'Artikel wurde gespeichert', 'GET') </script>
what are you doing in your code , why $(document).ready()
inside the function formModal()
and then inside that $(document).ready()
you are binding submit
handler which means every time you call the formModal()
you are binding a submit event handler and thats the main reason of multiple submits of the form. you should either remove the submit handler from the function and make a simple ajax call or change
$('#'+id).on('submit', function (e) {
to
$('#'+id).off('submit').on('submit', function (e) {
Sweet Alert has nothing to do with the multiple submits of your form
