jQuery submit: Main Tips

  • The jQuery submit form method adds an event handler, executing a function when a submit event occurs. It can also trigger that event.
  • The submit event is applied to form elements.

Handling submit Events

The jQuery .submit() method attaches an event handler that runs a function when a submit event occurs. It can also invoke the event, occuring whenever a jQuery form submittion happens.

Example
$("form").submit(() => {
    ("form").css("display", "none");
});

To trigger the jQuery submit event, the syntax is as follows:

$("selector").submit();

Attach an event handler by adding a function to be executed when a jQuery form submittion occurs:

$("selector").submit(function);
