[jquery] jQuery - add additional parameters on submit (NOT ajax)

Using jQuery's 'submit' - is there a way to pass additional parameters to a form? I am NOT looking to do this with Ajax - this is normal, refresh-typical form submission.

$('#submit').click(function () {
    $('#event').submit(function () {
        data: { 
        form['attendees'] = $('#attendance').sortable('toArray').toString();
    });
});

You could write a jQuery function which allowed you to add hidden fields to a form:

// This must be applied to a form (or an object inside a form).
jQuery.fn.addHidden = function (name, value) {
    return this.each(function () {
        var input = $("<input>").attr("type", "hidden").attr("name", name).val(value);
        $(this).append($(input));
    });
};

And then add the hidden field before you submit:

var frm = $("#form").addHidden('SaveAndReturn', 'Save and Return')
                    .submit();

In your case it should suffice to just add another hidden field to your form dynamically.

var input = $("<input>").attr("type", "hidden").val("Bla");
$('#form').append($(input));

Similar answer, but I just wanted to make it available for an easy/quick test.

var input = $("<input>")_x000D_
               .attr("name", "mydata").val("go Rafa!");_x000D_
_x000D_
$('#easy_test').append(input);

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.3/jquery.min.js"></script>_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_
_x000D_
<form id="easy_test">_x000D_
  _x000D_
</form>

You can even use this one. worked well for me

$("#registerform").attr("action", "register.php?btnsubmit=Save") 
$('#registerform').submit();

this will submit btnsubmit =Save as GET value to register.php form.

You don't need to bind the submit event on the click of the submit button just bind the submit event and it will capture the submit event no mater how it gets triggered.

Think what you are wanting is to submit the sortable like you would via ajax. Try doing something like this:

var form = $('#event').submit(function () {
    $.each($('#attendance').sortable('toArray'),function(i, value){
        $("<input>").attr({
            'type':'hidden',
            'name':'attendace['+i+']'
        }).val(value).appendTo(form);
    });
});
