mysql popup forgot password

Question

I have a form forgot password that confirms if the user exists and send a email with a link for password reset, it works fine but i do like that message "email was been sent..." should appear in a popup instead on the same page.

I tried this but does not works:

response.php

var useremail = document.getElementById("email").value();
$.get( "validation.php?email="  function( response ) {
    // console.log( response ); // server response
    response = response.trim();
    if(response == 1){
        alert("Email sent....");
    } else{
        alert(response);
        return false;
    }
});

}`

Form:

<form class="register" id="email" action="forgot.php" method="post" onSubmit="checkAll();">

mysql

if ($result=="") { $result = "Email has been sent"; }
  echo "<div>$result</div>";
}
?>```
