scripting a google docs form submission

Question

I\'m trying to create a bookmarklet that parses a page and sends the results to a googledocs spreadsheet via a form that I\'ve defined.

The relevent bit of the scrip

Answer 1

if your already using jquery, try submitting the form via ajax ($.ajax). You can setup a success function that will be called when google sends back their response.

alternatively you should be able to use firebug to view the response google sends back.

Specifically I was thinking you could try something like the following:

$.ajax({
  url: "http://spreadsheets.google.com/formResponse",
  data: { formkey: "Fd0SHgwQ3YwSFd5UHZpM1QxMlNOdlE6MA&ifq", "entry.0.single": orderDate, "entry.2.single": email, "entry.3.single": customerID },
  type: "POST",
  dataType: "xml",
  success: function(data, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest) {
    console.log("success");
    console.log(data);
  },
  error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
    console.log("error");
    console.log(textStatus);
  },
})
