Obtain dates with JavaScript before AJAX request

Question

I have this AJAX request:

function request(str){
    

        

Answer 1

Try this:

function form() {
    var id = document.getElementById('id').value;
    $("div2").text(id);
}

$(function() {
    $("#submit").click(function() {
      form();
    });
});

The syntax for embedding a function call in a jQuery event was incorrect. If you want to execute another function inside a jQuery function, you have to do the above, not .click(function form() {});

Answer 2

I think this code is broken:

<script>
    $(function() {
        $("#submit")
            .button()
            .click(function form() {
        });
    });

    function form(){

        var id = document.getElementById('id').value;
                $("div2").text(id);
    }
</script>

Not sure that this will totally fix it but I think this is the right syntax:

<script>
    $(function() {
        $("#submit")
            .button()
            .click(function() {
                 form();
        });
    });

    function form(){

        var id = document.getElementById('id').value;
                $("div2").text(id);
    }
</script>

I don't think this will solve your problem though but that syntax you were using wasn't formed right. I think instead of calling the function like this:

form();

You may also be interested in looking at .trigger() or .call(), I also looked at the jquery documentation and I have never seen .button(), what is that for?

Answer 3

I could be wrong but shouldn't the <script> tag come before the function?

<script>    
function request(str){    
    var aircraft = $("#div");
        aircraft.load("./file.php?icao="+str, function(){
        });
}
<script>
