Don't Redirect On Submitting Form

I have a simple HTML based form like shown below, which keeps refreshing the page on click.

Solution 1:

Use event not this

formSubmit(event)

And remove the unnecessary codes:

function formSubmit(e){
    e.preventDefault(); //This will prevent the default click action

    var frm = $('#'+ $(this).data('name') +'');

    $.ajax({
        type: frm.attr('method'),
        url: '(url)',
        data: frm.serialize(),
        success: function (data) {
            console.log('Submission was successful.');
            console.log(data);
        },
        error: function (data) {
            console.log('An error occurred.');
            console.log(data);
        }
    });
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="register" action="#" method="POST">
	<div class="input-group">
		<input class="form-control form-control-sm" placeholder="Email Address" name="email" type="text">
		<input type="hidden" name="form" value="register">
		<input type="hidden" name="type" value="websiteregistration">
		<span class="input-group-append">
			<button type="submit" class="btn btn-light" data-name="register" onclick="formSubmit(event)">Go!</button>
		</span>
	</div>
</form>

Solution 2:

Try to delete the type="submit" atribute and change it to type='button' and also change the argument from 'this' to 'event':

<button type="button" class="btn btn-light" data-name="register" onclick="formSubmit(event)">Go!</button>


Solution 3:

Give the type="button" instead of submit and also, remove the e.preventDefault(); and e.stopPropagation(); no need to add these two lines.

function formSubmit(e){

    var frm = $('#'+ $(this).data('name') +'');

    $.ajax({
        type: frm.attr('method'),
        url: '(url)',
        data: frm.serialize(),
        success: function (data) {
            console.log('Submission was successful.');
            console.log(data);
        },
        error: function (data) {
            console.log('An error occurred.');
            console.log(data);
        }
    });

    return false;
}
