From d7856eb24b703d69aa616c0fb5972097e328712f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gilles van den Hoven Date: Wed, 31 May 2006 11:14:21 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] $.fn.formValues; Gets form values and creates a key=>value array of the found values. What's new? - Only does this for ENABLED elements. - Keeps the same order of the form. - Optionally adds the button which is clicked (marks that name with an 'x' in the list) example: $('#frmLogin').formValues('oButton'); $.fn.update (PREVIOUSLY: $.update, so beware!!!!) Calls sURL with sAction (method) and sends the aValues. Puts the results from that call in the jQuery object and calls fCallback if provided. What's new? - Renamed $.update to $.fn.update, since it is more obvious to call $('someJQueryObject').update(...) then $.update($('someJQueryObject'), ...). It's also more jQuery-ish - Added the method you want to use, since i used post before, now you can select between either GET or POST. example: $('someJQueryObject').update('sURL', 'sAction', 'aValues', 'fCallback'); $.fn.serialize Calls the form's action with the correct method and the serialized values. Optionally adds the button which is clicked if you provide it. When there are results, the fCallback function is called. What's new? - The entire function example: $('someForm').serialize('sButton', 'fCallback'); --- ajax/ajax.js | 112 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- 1 file changed, 79 insertions(+), 33 deletions(-) diff --git a/ajax/ajax.js b/ajax/ajax.js index fef1e22..6339f7d 100644 --- a/ajax/ajax.js +++ b/ajax/ajax.js @@ -133,52 +133,98 @@ $.fn.load = function(a,o,f) { }; /** - * function: $.fn.formValues - * usage: $('#frmLogin').formValues() - * docs: Gets form values and creates a key=>value array of the found values (for ENABLED elements!) + * name: $.fn.formValues + * example: $('#frmLogin').formValues('sButton') + * docs: Gets form values and creates a key=>value array of the found values. + * Optionally adds the button which is clicked if you provide it. + * Only does this for ENABLED elements in the order of the form. */ -$.fn.formValues = function() { +$.fn.formValues = function(sButton) { var a = []; - $("input,textarea,option",this).filter(":enabled").each(function(){ - // Skip selects with options which are not selected - if ((this.parentNode.type == 'select-one' || this.parentNode.type == 'select-multiple') && !this.selected) { - return null; - } + var elp = {INPUT:true, TEXTAREA:true, OPTION:true}; - // Skip radio and checkbox elements which are not checked - if ((this.type == 'radio' || this.type == 'checkbox') && !this.checked) { - return null; - } + // Loop the shite + $('*', this).each(function() { + // Skip elements not of the types in elp + if (!elp[this.tagName]) + return; + + // Skip disabled elements + if (this.disabled) + return; + + // Skip non-selected nodes + if ((this.parentNode.nodeName == 'SELECT') && (!this.selected)) + return; + + // Skip non-checked nodes + if (((this.type == 'radio') || (this.type == 'checkbox')) && (!this.checked)) + return; - // All other elements are valid + // If we come here, everything is fine, so add the data a.push({ name: this.name || this.id || this.parentNode.name || this.parentNode.id, value: this.value }); }); + + // Add submit button if needed + if (sButton && (sButton !== null)) + a.push({ name: sButton, value: 'x' }); + return a; }; /** - * function: $.update - * usage: $.update('someJQueryObject', 'someurl', 'array'); - * docs: Mimics the ajaxUpdater from prototype.
