I'm trying to get a jquery ajax contact form that works on the rest of my site to work in the blog section.
Jquery will work eg:
$j=jQuery.noConflict();
// Use jQuery via $j(...)
$j(document).ready(function(){
alert('test');
});
but for the contact form, nothing (well, you get a page reload).
in the php
<div class="widget"><script src="/scripts/emailer.js"></script>
<div class="widgetHead">EMAIL </div>
<form name="contact" method="post" action="">
<fieldset><div class="contentHolder"><div class="widgetContent" id="contact_form">
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" size="31" value="Join our mailing list" class="text-input" /> </div></div>
<div class="widgetFoot"><input type="submit" name="submit" class="button" id="submit_btn" value="SIGN UP" /></div></fieldset>
</form>
</div>
and the .js
$j = jQuery.noConflict();
$j(function() {
$j('.error').hide();
$j('input.text-input').css({backgroundColor:"#FFFFFF"});
$j('input.text-input').focus(function(){
if($j(this).val() == "Join our mailing list")
$j(this).val('');
}).blur(function() {
if($j(this).val() == "")
$j(this).val('Join our mailing list');
$j(".button").click(function() {
// validate and process form
// first hide any error messages
$j('.error').hide();
var email = $j("input#email").val();
if (email == "Join our mailing list") {
return false;
}
if (email == "Thanks!") {
return false;
}
if (email == "") {
return false;
}
var dataString = '&email=' + email;
// alert (dataString);return false;
$j.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/scripts/process2.php",
data: dataString,
success: function() {
$j('#contact_form').html("<div id='message'></div>");
$j('#message').html("<input type='text' name='email' id='email' size='30' value='Thanks!' class='text-input' />")
}
});
$j('input.text-input2').focus(function(){
if($j(this).val() == "Thanks!")
$j(this).val('');
});
return false;
});
});
});
In my main site i'm using the library from http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.pack.js
have tried this and wp_enqueue_script("jquery") in my header but neither worked.
Anyone have any ideas?
