onclick for button not calling function

Question

One of the problems I am experiencing at the moment is not being able to call a function in the onclick event of the submit button.

Answer 1

First, you should avoid inline handlers like that. Second, depending on the form submission process. You should have the button inside your

tags. Then add .

Otherwise, use jQuery and $.ajax() with a click event handler:

$('#submit').on('click', () {
  $.ajax({check properties in jquery api docs}, (result) => { 
      // do something 
    }, 
    (e) => { 
      // do something on error 
  })
})
