jQuery form submit

Question

My goal is: When for is submitted:

• a validation on form is made : OK
• an ajax is called to see that username and password do match : OK<

Answer 1

You can call the native submit event, so do this:

$('#form1').submit(form1Submit);

Then in your post callback do this:

$.post("check.php", { username: username, password:password }, function(data) {
    if (data=="ko") {
        alert('bad password');
    } else {
        this.submit();
    }
});

The this.submit() isn't calling he jQuery .submit() trigger function, but rather the native

.submit() function.
