I can't figure it out why my ajax form won't work, I've been scratching my head for a while now. To make it a bit easier my javascript code is at the forgot password section. The console outputs nothing and the page doesn't refresh either so I don't know what's wrong? The result is supposed to be displayed in the <p id="msg"><p/>.
login2.php code:
<?php
$data = array();
if(isset($_POST['email'])){
$data = $_POST['email'];
echo json_encode($data);
die();
}
?>
