在表单上使用jQuery，Laravel 5.3在表单外部将数据发送到div上

Question

this is my form

      <form method="post" action="{{url('/vpage')}}"> 
      <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">

      <label>First Name</label>
           <input type="text" name="firstname" placeholder="First Name" value="{{$user->firstname}}" >

      <label>Email Address</label>
          <input type="text" name="email" placeholder="Email Address"  value="{{$user->email}}" >

      <label>Phone Number <span> (optional)</span></label>
             <input type="text" name="phone" placeholder="(888) 888-888" value="{{$user->phone}}" >

      <button id="hitme" class="submitBTN getstart" type="submit" onclick='return false;'> Get Started </button> 
       </form> 

this is div outside the form

   <div class="vgasRit">
        <p>SUMMARY</p>
           <div class="sfieldz w100">

              <label>Name:</label>
              <input type="text" placeholder="John Smith" value="{{$user->firstname}}">

          </div>
          <div class="w100">
              <label>Email Address:</label>
              <input type="text" placeholder="johnsmith@gmail.com" value="{{$user->email}}" >
           </div>

            <div class="w100">
               <label>Phone Number:</label>
            <input type="text" placeholder="(888) 888-888" value="{{$user->phone}}">
             </div>
    </div>

I want to access the value of the "fistname" , "lastname" and "phone" as user submit the form,so that i can display it in summary div.

Note: i have tried compact function of php in my controller so that i can send the whole database object in my view but this solution not working , after using compact function i was access the object like this

    <input type="text" placeholder="John Smith"  value="<?= (!empty($group_data)) ? $group_data->firstname : '';?>">

Any ideas regarding this ? i am new to laravel. I have served several hours on internet but nothing found out.

Assuming everything is on the same page, give your form's inputs an id:

<form id="form" method="post" action="{{url('/vpage')}}"> 
<label>First Name</label>
       <input id="firstname" type="text" name="firstname" placeholder="First Name" value="{{$user->firstname}}" >

  <label>Email Address</label>
      <input id="email" type="text" name="email" placeholder="Email Address"  value="{{$user->email}}" >

  <label>Phone Number <span> (optional)</span></label>
         <input id="phone" type="text" name="phone" placeholder="(888) 888-888" value="{{$user->phone}}" >

Give your summary div inputs an id too:

<p>SUMMARY</p>
       <div class="sfieldz w100">

          <label>Name:</label>
          <input id="firstname2" type="text" placeholder="John Smith" value="{{$user->firstname}}">

      </div>
      <div class="w100">
          <label>Email Address:</label>
          <input id="email2" type="text" placeholder="johnsmith@gmail.com" value="{{$user->email}}" >
       </div>

        <div class="w100">
           <label>Phone Number:</label>
        <input id="phone2" type="text" placeholder="(888) 888-888" value="{{$user->phone}}">
         </div>

Then, use jquery to get those values when the user submits the form:

$('#form').submit(function() {
    // set our summary div inputs values with our form values
    $('firstname2').val($('firstname').val());
    $('email2').val($('email').val());
    $('phone2').val($('phone').val());
});

That should be it.

Your view (I assumed that form and summery div in same view):

        <form method="post" action="{{url('/vpage')}}">
            <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">

            <label>First Name</label>
            <input type="text" name="firstname" placeholder="First Name" value="{{$user->firstname}}">

            <label>Email Address</label>
            <input type="text" name="email" placeholder="Email Address" value="{{$user->email}}">

            <label>Phone Number <span> (optional)</span></label>
            <input type="text" name="phone" placeholder="(888) 888-888" value="{{$user->phone}}">

            <button id="hitme" class="submitBTN getstart" type="submit" onclick='return false;'> Get Started</button>
        </form>


@if($Data->input('firstname'))
      <p>SUMMARY</p>


           <div class="sfieldz w100">

              <label>Name:</label>
              <input id="firstname2" type="text" placeholder="John Smith" value="{{$Data->input('firstname')}}">

          </div>
          <div class="w100">
              <label>Email Address:</label>
              <input id="email2" type="text" placeholder="johnsmith@gmail.com" value="{{$Data->input('email')}}" >
           </div>

            <div class="w100">
               <label>Phone Number:</label>
            <input id="phone2" type="text" placeholder="(888) 888-888" value="{{$Data->input('phone')}}">
             </div>

@endif

Contoroller

function vpageController(Request $r){
  return view("path.to.view",['Data'=>$r]);
}

Route:

Route::Route::match(['POST', 'GET'],'/vpage', 'ControllerName@vpageController');
