Hi All I have 2 arrays on one page and some buttons which are performing onclick ajax calls - the line I am using to serialize the array is as seen below:
var data = $('form').serializeArray();
however the wrong form is being serialized - is there anyway to do serialize array by name or ID of a form field - I know this will be an extremely easy solution - I am completely new to JS
Of course it's possible. If you have an ID set up on this form element (and you usually should), just specify it in the selector:
var someFormData = $('#some_form_id').serializeArray();
var anotherFormData = $('#another_form_id').serializeArray();
Note that using it like this is preferable to $('form#some_form_id') - being more specific when using ID selector is not a good idea.
It's almost the same with names - you just have to use so-called attribute selector:
var someFormData = $('[name=some_form]').serializeArray();
var anotherFormData = $('[name=another_form]').serializeArray();
