Ajax Multipart FormData Passing with jQuery

This project demonstrates how to prepare and pass form data, including file uploads, using jQuery's $.ajax() method. The form data is sent to a PHP backend for processing.

Project Structure

• index.html: The main HTML file containing the form.
• script.js: The JavaScript file that handles the form submission using jQuery and Ajax.
• backend.php: The PHP script that processes the incoming form data and files.

Setup and Usage

Prerequisites

• A web server with PHP support (e.g., XAMPP, WAMP, MAMP).
• Internet connection for loading external dependencies (Bootstrap, jQuery).

Instructions

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/wholeomarfaruk/ajax-multipart-formdata-passing-with-jquery.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd ajax-multipart-formdata-passing-with-jquery

3. Start your local web server and place the project directory in the server's root directory (e.g., htdocs for XAMPP).

4. Open index.html in your web browser:

   http://localhost/ajax-multipart-formdata-passing-with-jquery/index.html
   

5. Fill out the form and submit. You can inspect the response in your browser's developer console or network tab.

File Descriptions

• index.html:

  • Contains a form with fields for Full Name, Shop Name, Phone Number, Email Address, Shop Address, Profile Image, and Verify PIN.
  • Uses Bootstrap for styling.

• script.js:

  • Handles form submission using jQuery.
  • Collects form data and files, packages them into a FormData object.
  • Sends the FormData object to the backend PHP script using an Ajax POST request.

• backend.php:

  • Receives and processes the form data and files.
  • Prints the received data to the response (for debugging purposes).

Key Features

• Form Handling:

  • Prevents default form submission behavior.
  • Uses FormData to handle both text data and file uploads.
  • Uses $.ajax() for asynchronous data submission.

• Bootstrap Integration:

  • Provides a responsive and modern UI for the form.

Dependencies

• Bootstrap: Included via CDN.
• jQuery: Included via CDN.

Example Usage

1. Fill out the form:

   • Enter text data in the respective fields.
   • Upload a file using the file input.

2. Submit the form:

   • The form data and file will be sent to backend.php for processing.

3. Check the response:

   • Open your browser's developer tools (F12).
   • Go to the Network tab and inspect the backend.php response.
   • Alternatively, check the Console for the response logged by the success callback.
