在fancybox中提交表格

Question

Is it possible to create a form to be submitted within a fancybox.

<a class="assignScoreValues" href="/quality/assign-score-values/id/1">Assign Score Values</a>

Then in the controller I display a form to be submitted. I can't redirect as I will lose the information on the original page.

I'm thinking that it's not possible?

Answer 1

Fancybox window is a part of the HTML of a parent one. So if your fancybox don't consist of the iframe the submitting in the fancybox will reload your parent page.

So the obvious (and the only I think) way to submit form correctly is to do it via AJAX. Then you can close the fancybox using $.fancybox.close() method.
