How to do something before on submit? [closed]

Answer 1

Assuming you have a form like this:

You can attach a onsubmit-event with jQuery like this:

$('#myForm').submit(function() {
  alert('Handler for .submit() called.');
  return false;
});

If you return false the form won't be submitted after the function, if you return true or nothing it will submit as usual.

See the jQuery documentation for more info.
