Post a form with jQuery and add it to the page

Answer 1

To submit a form using jQuery I believe you need to check this out: http://api.jquery.com/submit/

And I am sure you can retrieve the submitted data with the following:

$('[name=mytextarea]').val()`

Answer 2

Yes, sending forms with jQuery is fairly easy.

There's a simple function to post data with AJAX, and it's easy to tie in the values of a form:

$.post(url, $('#myform').serialize(), function(data) { 
    $('#content').prepend(data);
})

$.post is the simple way. If you need to check for errors and whatnot, you should check out $.ajax (http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax).

Answer 3

Yes, this is certainly possible, using AJAX:

$('.myform').submit(function(e){
    var data = $(this).serialize();
    e.preventDefault();

    $.ajax({
        url: this.action,
        type: 'POST',
        success: function(data) {
            $('#content').prepend(data);
        },
        error: function() {
            alert('oops, something went wrong');
        }
    );
});
