JQuery - Appending to Serialize

Question

I am trying to figure out how to append two more values to the serialize method in JQuery. I have the following code to submit a form with ajax and have two more variables t

Answer 1

If you change serialize() to serializeArray() you can push values into the array :

var formData = $('#contact_form').serializeArray();
formData.push({ name: "<something>", value: "<somevalue>" });
submitForm(formData);

The data can still be sent in the same way as you would with the serialize() method, using the $.ajax() method

Answer 2

You can add new values by appending to your variable:

formData += '&var1=blah&var2=blah';
