prettycode / submitForm.js

Last active December 16, 2015 07:49

Use this function to submit an HTML form without actually having a form on the page. Instead of an existing form, pass the function a *flat* JavaScript object with the form values to submit. This is a synchronous operation; the browser loads the response as its new window location. Requests with "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded".

	var submitForm = function(config) {

	if (!config) {
	throw new Error();
	}
	else {
	config.method = config.method \|\| 'post';
	config.data = config.data \|\| {};
	config.url = config.url \|\| (function() {
	throw new Error('Missing required `url` argument');
