提交动态生成自 JavaScript

Question

I have the following form generated dynamically from JavaScript based on user's action:

<form id="editBookForm" onsubmit="editBookData()">
   <input type="text" name="isbn" placeholder="ISBN"  required />
   <input type="text" name="book" placeholder="Book..."  required />
   <button class ="btn">Update!</button>
</form>

The editBookData function is:

function editBookData(data) {
    console.log(data)
   //Some other work
}

How can I prevent default submission behavior and pass the form data so that I can access the form data in the editBookData() function?

No Jquery please. Thank you in Advance.

Answer 1

You can use preventDefault() method to the stop form from reloading and use querySelector method to get the form input text values in your function

Live Demo: (No jQuery)

 function editBookData(e) { e.preventDefault() //prevent default behaviour //get input value let isbn = document.querySelector('input[name="isbn"]').value let book = document.querySelector('input[name="book"]').value console.log(isbn, book) //Do Some other work with values }

 <form id="editBookForm" onsubmit="editBookData(event)"> <input type="text" name="isbn" placeholder="ISBN" required /> <input type="text" name="book" placeholder="Book..." required /> <button class="btn">Update!</button> </form>

Answer 2

Use event.preventDefault() to prevent the submission of the form and use the FormData Web API to generating a form dynamically.

Event.preventDefault reference
FormData API on MDN

 function editBookData(event) { event.preventDefault(); let editBookForm = document.getElementById('editBookForm'); let formData = new FormData(editBookForm); for (item of formData.values()) { console.log(item); } //.... other things to do }

 <form id="editBookForm" onsubmit="editBookData(event)"> <input type="text" name="isbn" placeholder="ISBN" required /> <input type="text" name="book" placeholder="Book..." required /> <button class="btn">Update!</button> </form>
