Form Post In Spry

By Raymond Camden

Last week or so I blogged about doing form postings with Spry.

I was asked to provide a bit more documentation so I thought I'd show a slightly more detailed example.

First lets start with a very simple form:



This form has two simple text fields named one and two. I want to use Spry to send the values of these two fields to the server. First lets add a simple button:



Now I need to grab the values I want to post. Normally with a submit button you don't have to worry about this. The browser simply sends all the form fields. In this case though I have to specify the fields manually. First I'll grab the value of the form field, one, using the Spry/Prototype $() shortcut:

The form post data must be sent like a query string: foo1=value1&foo2=value2. Again, I have to do this by hand:



So the last thing we do is run the Spry code that will handle the form post. I talked about this more in the last post so I won't spend a lot of time on it.



The first argument defines the type of request (GET or POST). The second argument is the URL value I defined earlier. The third argument defines if the call is asynchronous or not. The fourth argument defines a function to run with the result of the HTTP call.

Lastly there is a structure of arguments that define the request. Again I have to thank Keith for figuring this out.
