I want to send a serialized form through ajax, but I need to know which field is select, and which is text input, but not sure how I can work that.
$('#contact_filter_btn').click(function(){
form = $('#contact_filter').serialize();
$.ajax({
type : 'POST',
url : '//'+base_url+'/ajax/contact-filter.php',
data : form,
success : function(data) {
$('#customers_table').html(data);
}
});
});
Any ideas on how you can determine if the field was text or select? I dont mind making alterations to the html if that will help somehow

you can get all elements with$('select')
and$('input')
and use$.each
for get data from those elements. then create JSON with those arrays and send it to URL

You can just add the type to every input name, like :<select name="example1_select">
,<input name="example2_text">
,... and then in your back-end split each name by_
to retrieve the real name and the type of it.

I thought the easiest solution was just to change the names of the form fields. So I changes the names to $type.'_'.$name
This then allowed me to know what type it was, and I just strpos/substr them in php, to extra the type and remove that part from name?
