I have many dhtmlxCombos in my form and want to use ajax to save the contents of the form to a db when it is submitted.
I have experience with using jquery as below. But the value of the combos is not accessible. Is there a way to get the values using this method, or is there a better way to do this using dhtmlxAjax?
$("#addrecipe").submit(function()
{
//remove all the class add the messagebox classes and start fading
$("#msgbox").removeClass().addClass(‘messagebox’).text(‘Saving…’).fadeIn(1000);
$("#msgbox1").removeClass().addClass(‘messagebox’).text(‘Saving…’).fadeIn(1000);
$.post(“save.php”,{
id:$(’#id’).val(),
save:$(’#submit’).val(),
name:$(’#name’).val(),
image:$(’#image’).val(),
newimage:$(’#newimage’).val(),
measure:$(’#measure’).val(),
cat0:$(’#cat0’).val(),
cat1:$(’#cat1’).val(),
cat2:$(’#cat2’).val(),
cat3:$(’#cat3’).val()
} ,function(data) {…
The combo value can be got by getActualValue() method:
var value = combo.getActualValue();
Moreover combo creates hidden input with selected value. So, the value is submitted if combo container is placed inside form:
