ajax jquery javascript

Answer 1

You should provide your HTML too in your question, but as far as i can see, you have event in event callbacks with actually nothing to initiate the submit event. So basically you should consider something like this :

$(document).ready(function(){

    $('#sortable li').click(function() {
        event.preventDefault();
        var formdata = $("#frmgallery").serialize();
        alert(formdata);
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "gallery.php",
            data: formdata,
            success: function(){alert('success');}
        });
    });

});

Answer 2

You can use the ajaxForm/ajaxSubmit functions from Ajax Form Plugin or the jQuery serialize function.

Example:

$("#frmgallery").ajaxForm({url: 'gallery.php', type: 'post'})

or

$("#frmgallery").ajaxSubmit({url: 'gallery.php', type: 'post'})

ajaxForm will send when the submit button is pressed. ajaxSubmit sends immediately.

Answer 3

Have you tried return false at the end of your submit function?

    $("#frmgallery").submit(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var formdata = $(this).serialize();
        alert(formdata);
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "gallery.php",
            data: formdata,
            success: function(){alert('success');}
            error: function(){alert('error');}
        });
        return false;
    });
$('#sortable li').click(function() {

     $("#frmgallery").submit();
});

Also post what you get from $.ajax call

Answer 4

$("#frmgallery").ajaxForm({url: 'gallery.php', type: 'post'})

Have you tried return false at the end of your submit function?

    $("#frmgallery").submit(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var formdata = $(this).serialize();
        alert(formdata);
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "gallery.php",
            data: formdata,
            success: function(){alert('success');}
            error: function(){alert('error');}
        });
        return false;
    });
$('#sortable li').click(function() {

     $("#frmgallery").submit();
});
