Why is this ajax call being made even though it shouldn't be
- by user2921557
i have this validation script im working on but cant see why im having an issue.
You can see that i have a check = false / true, check before it runs the ajax call.
However, even if a field is empty and check is set to false, it is still running the call.
so:
// JavaScript - Update Password AJAX
$(document).ready(function () {
// When the form is submitted
$('.updatepasswordform').submit(function () {
var check = true;
// Get the values
var password1 = $("input[name=password1]").val();
var password2 = $("input[name=password2]").val();
var newpassword = $("input[name=newpassword]").val();
/* Password Validation */
// If fields are empty
if (password1 === '') {
check = false;
$("input[name=password1]").css('border', 'solid 2px red');
}
// If fields are empty
if (password2 === '') {
check = false;
$("input[name=password2]").css('border', 'solid 2px red');
}
// If fields are empty
if (newpassword === '') {
check = false;
$("input[name=newpassword]").css('border', 'solid 2px red');
}
if (check = true) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "process/updatepassword.php",
data: $(".updatepasswordform").serialize(),
dataType: "json",
success: function (response) {
/* Checks for database validation, removed for space saving */
}
});
}
return false;
});
});
