Hello,

I looked at the documentation for jQuery Form as well as safecracker but I can’t seem to get the success callback function to fire. I was able to get the simple function to fire like so…

$('#updatePageSite').ajaxForm(function(){
alert("foobar");
}); 


But that looks like it’ll go off no matter if it was successfull or not.


So I tried running the code provided here in the documentation using the Options object. But it just won’t work

$('#updatePageSite').ajaxForm({
                dataType: 'json',
                success: function(data) {
                    if (data.success) {
                        alert('You successfully added a new entry with entry_id '.data.entry_id)
                    } else {
                        alert('Failed with the following errors: '+data.errors.join(', '));
                    }
                }
            }); 

It never fires. I can’t figure out if this is something wrong with jQuery Form or safecracker, or something on my end.

P.S. I tried many times to submit this post, but it was not allowed because the computer thought it might be spam so it was discarded. I narrowed it down to the “alert” keyword that was throwing it off. Not sure why that would raise a flag as spam.

try alert() instead of echo() and see if that works?

it’s the forum that’s not letting me post “alert” in that code block. I just put in alert with spaces instead of echo and that seems to be accepted.

Edit: ok, weird. after I edited that with spaces in the alert, it removed the spaces and it displays correctly confused

Just a warning about resource (”/?ACT=jquery”) being interpreted as script but transferred with MIME type text/html.

The form works great too. I just can’t get the callback function to fire.

can you do this and see what shows up in your console?

$('#updatePageSite').ajaxForm({
                success: function(data) {
                    window.console.log(data);
                }
            });

I’m in safari with the error console up and nothing happens. It doesn’t get far enough to even run that command.

In Firefox I got an error that window.console was undefined. But the alerts don’t work in firefox either :(
