jQuery.POST - pass another parameter with Form.Serialize() - Asp.net MVC 3

Question

As I am working on Asp.Net MVC Application, in my application I am using jQuery.POST method to submit a form.

e.g.

jQuery.post(\'/Product/Sa         


        

Answer 1

What about using the Url.Action method to build your calling URL? You can include the additional data you need that way.

<%: Url.Action('Save', 'Product', new { "ProductID", your product id }) %>

This would replace the hard-coded URL in your jQuery.post method call.

Answer 2

How about:

 var url = '<%= Html.BuildUrlFromExpression<MyController>(c => c.Save(":productId")) %>';

You could later replace the url with the actual value in your post URL.

 url.replace(':productId', $productId);

Answer 3

You could use the following plugin to serialize the form into a JSON object and add another parameters:

$.fn.serializeObject = function()
{
    var o = {};
    var a = this.serializeArray();
    $.each(a, function() {
        if (o[this.name]) {
            if (!o[this.name].push) {
                o[this.name] = [o[this.name]];
            }
            o[this.name].push(this.value || '');
        } else {
            o[this.name] = this.value || '';
        }
    });
    return o;
};

like this:

var data = $('form').serializeObject();
data['ProductId'] = '123';
$.post('<%= Url.Action("Save", "Product") %>', data, function (data) { 
    alert('Product Added Successfully.'); 
});
