I have this jquery ajax form submitting script which i wrote for creating and editing items in the DB.
The issue is that whenever i create an item 2 items are created.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#new_item').on('hidden', function () {
$(".alert").hide(); // remove errors…when the modal form closes
});
$(".showedit").click(function(){
var edit = $(this).attr('id').split("_");// get the edit id
var id = edit[1];
var values = $('#data_'+id+' td').map(function(_, td) {
return $(td).text();
}).get();
// populate the form with the database field
var name = $("input[name=name]").val(values[1]);
var model = $("select[name=model]").val(values[2]);
var brand = $("select[name=brand]").val(values[3]);
$('#new_item').modal();
});
$("#submit_button").click(function( e ) {
e.preventDefault();
var name = $("input[name=name]").val();
var amount = $("input[name=amount]").val();
var model = $("select[name=model]").val();
var brand = $("select[name=brand]").val();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "<?=base_url()?>items/create",
cache: false,
dataType: "json",
data: 'name='+name+'&amount='+amount+'&model='+model+'&brand='+brand,
success: function(result){
if(result.error) {
$(".alert").addClass('alert-error');
$(".alert").fadeIn('slow').html(result.message);
}
else
{
$(".alert").addClass('alert-success');
$(".alert").fadeIn('slow').html(result.message);
}
}
});
});
});
</script>
