在jquery中发送正常请求（不是ajax）

Question

Is there any method in jquery like $.post , $.ajax etc which works like a normal form submission. I know about .submit() but it requires a form element , can we send a normal request without a form element in jquery?

Answer 1

You can submit without a form using $.ajax() . Further, to make it behave like a normal form would, set the async property to false .

$.ajax({
    url:   "/controller/action",
    data:  {'foo':'bar'},
    async: false
});

This will result in you being sent to:

"/controller/action?foo=bar"

Answer 2

window.location.href = '/controller/action?foo=bar';

Answer 3

You are not clear on what you want to achieve. From what I understand, I'd suppose you want to send a GET or POST (form-submit-like) request to the server and make it seem like a real one.

In that case you would:

• Create a XMLHTTPRequest with appropriate parameters.
• Make it synchronous.
• With the response, overwrite the DOM.

Answer 4

Not entirely clear what you are after, however you can use jQuery's serialize ( docs ) to pass a collection of values from input not in a form or any other items. You would still need to post the data in some manner however.
