Does submit () function have a callback?

Question

I have this code and a file upload form that is sent to the frame:

setMyCookie('name','value_1'); $('.myform').submit(); setMyCookie('name','value_2'); 

Problem: Webkit browsers seem to update “MyCookie” with “value_2” before the form is submitted, or the moment it is submitted, so the wrong cookie value is sent with it. I want to change the cookie value to "value_2" immediately after submitting the form so that the cookie is ready for another request.

The following code works fine, but I don't think using timeout () is the best solution. Maybe there is another way to solve this problem?

 setMyCookie('name','value_1'); $('.myform').submit(); setTimeout(function(){setMyCookie('name',value_2);},100); 

Thanks.

Answer 1

Not. Submitting the form loads a completely new page, which usually ends the current execution context for the script.

The exception is sending the form to the frame, in which case the onload event fires.

Answer 2

Yes, you can. See here.

You will need to use AJAX for this. Otherwise, the form is submitted, and the rest of the JavaScript that your function executes is ignored as the page reloads.
