I am trying to capture the data from a summernote editor and sending it to a php file via ajax.
I am using the load() to pass some set of parameters to a php file which works perfectly; but I got to understand that the summernote data is made up of HMTL tags and it will take so much effort validating the summernote data for transport. Instead I decided to make another ajax call using the $.ajax(). Each time I send the data, the load() ajax call works but the $.ajax() don't, instead I get an error stating -
Uncaught TypeError: Illegal invocation
at i (jquery.min.js:2)
at jt (jquery.min.js:2)

at HTMLButtonElement.<anonymous> (<anonymous>:88:58)
at HTMLButtonElement.dispatch (jquery.min.js:2)
at HTMLButtonElement.y.handle (jquery.min.js:2)
Below is my code
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#summernote").summernote();
//Comment
var commentForm = document.getElementById("commentForm");
var domID = "#taskPro" + jobID;
$(domID).html('<div class="progress-bar progress-bar-striped progress-bar-animated bg-danger" style="width:100%;">Sending Report</div>');
$(domID).load("../../../config/actions.php?cN=" + customerNumber + "&date=" + date + "&fullName=" + newString7 + "&address=" + newString8 + "&landMark=" + newString9 + "&commet=" + comment + "&complextion=" + complextion + "&type1=" + type1 + "&type2=" + type2 + "&color=" + color + "&xOwner=" + newString0 + "&areaProfile=" + newString1 + "&ifn=" + newString2 + "&ixOwner=" + newString3 + "&iAddress=" + newString4 + "&telephone=" + newString5 + "&requestType=" + newString6 + "&jobID=" + jobID + "&gpsCoords=" + gpsCoords + "&submitReport=1");
//Post Comment
$.ajax({
url: "../testAction.php",
type: "POST",
data: new FormData(commentForm),
contentType: "text/plain"
});
});
<form method="post" action="" id="commentForm">
<textarea class="form-control" name="comment" id="summernote"><p>Comment: Should contain Comment, Verification Status Description, Building deatails. Also upload images where neccessary</p></textarea>
</form>
<script>
</script>
I expect to submit the data captured from the summernote editor to the database using the mysqli_real_escape_string()
</div>
