表单发布操作和ajax发布类型之间的差异

Question

I think

<form action="some.php" method="POST">...</form>

and

$.ajax({
   type:POST,
   url:some.php,
//...
});

both do the same thing, but I can't make the latter redirect me to some.php whereas the former automatically load the page after the post is done. Which one to you is more preferred ? Are they really the same ?

Answer 1

The entire point of AJAX is that you aren't forced to load a different page into the browser when using it.
