I have been using this method for several years, and totally forgot where I got it. I will make the necessary notations on the script to remind myself it was you

SO helpful! 

Especially as you are one of the very few presenters on Youtube that don't sound like 10 year old kids or lisp.

I actually made something similair a week ago and I used serialize to make it work with different kind of forms. I made a lightbox which could include any form and send any form without being sent to another page. It's awesome!

You have this really cool way of making the toothy and hairy mythical beast of Ajax appear very tame. Thank you profusely.

$.Post / $.Get are just helper functions that ultimately access the ajax method. So your basically doing the same thing, only using a helper function to do so. Also there are other methods that can be done with Ajax such as 'put' and 'delete'

Excellent Alex cheers, this was extremely useful. I couldn't get it working for ages at first, but then realised that I forgot the parentheses off the .val() aagghhh. I just got a fully populated object instead of the expected JSON data - d'oh! Anyhoo, cheers mate. Oh and yes Ray below is right about checkboxes, mad eh!

Hi Alex, thanks a bunch for this tutorial. It helped me get my first ajax form working! However, it did not work for me exactly as you said. I got to the point of returning the $_POST data just fine, but the jQuery was not grabbing the form and I kept getting sent to my script. After a little digging around I fixed the problem by changing $('form.ajax').on('submit', function()) to

Thanks again!

Great tutorial, as always with your videos. Variable naming could be better though. That = this and this references the variable that. $Name = name... I understood the session, but keeping that in mind for the future would be much smoother I think.

nice and clean, any chance of a follow up showing the best way to validate fields with this method?
