I am having problem with ajax submit form with angular, when i click submit my entire page is reloaded?
Where can be the problem, here is my code
/*
Create the controller and inject Angular's $scope
*/
// resource2Controller
(function () {
'use strict';
angular.module("aluPlanetApp").controller('resource2Controller', resource2Controller);
resource2Controller.$inject = ['$scope'];
resource2Controller.$inject = ['$http'];
function resource2Controller($scope, $http) {
activate();
function activate() {
$scope.title = 'Contact';
$scope.id = '2';
$scope.result = 'hidden'
$scope.resultMessage;
$scope.formData; //formData is an object holding the name, email, subject, and message
$scope.submitButtonDisabled = false;
$scope.submitted = false; //used so that form errors are shown only after the form has been submitted
$scope.submit = function (contactform) {
$scope.submitted = true;
$scope.submitButtonDisabled = true;
if (contactform.$valid) {
$http({
method: 'POST',
url: 'contact-form.php',
data: $.param($scope.formData), //param method from jQuery
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' } //set the headers so angular passing info as form data (not request payload)
}).success(function (data) {
console.log(data);
if (data.success) { //success comes from the return json object
$scope.submitButtonDisabled = true;
$scope.resultMessage = data.message;
$scope.result = 'bg-success';
} else {
$scope.submitButtonDisabled = false;
$scope.resultMessage = data.message;
$scope.result = 'bg-danger';
}
});
} else {
$scope.submitButtonDisabled = false;
$scope.resultMessage = 'Failed <img src="http://www.chaosm.net/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" class="wp-smiley"> Please fill out all the fields.';
$scope.result = 'bg-danger';
}
}
}
}
})();
And contact-form.php
<?php
require_once 'phpmailer/PHPMailerAutoload.php';
if (isset($_POST['inputName']) && isset($_POST['inputEmail']) && isset($_POST['inputSubject']) && isset($_POST['inputMessage'])) {
//check if any of the inputs are empty
if (empty($_POST['inputName']) || empty($_POST['inputEmail']) || empty($_POST['inputSubject']) || empty($_POST['inputMessage'])) {
$data = array('success' => false, 'message' => 'Please fill out the form completely.');
echo json_encode($data);
exit;
}
//create an instance of PHPMailer
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->From = $_POST['inputEmail'];
$mail->FromName = $_POST['inputName'];
$mail->AddAddress('something@test.com'); //recipient
$mail->Subject = $_POST['inputSubject'];
$mail->Body = "Name: " . $_POST['inputName'] . "
Message: " . stripslashes($_POST['inputMessage']);
if (isset($_POST['ref'])) {
$mail->Body .= "
Ref: " . $_POST['ref'];
}
if(!$mail->send()) {
$data = array('success' => false, 'message' => 'Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo);
echo json_encode($data);
exit;
}
$data = array('success' => true, 'message' => 'Thanks! We have received your message.');
echo json_encode($data);
} else {
$data = array('success' => false, 'message' => 'Please fill out the form completely.');
echo json_encode($data);
}
