Stay tuned for more insights regarding the DMXzone Ajax Form coming tomorrow and the official release on Wednesday!

The Story

DMXzone Ajax Form can be used for:
  • Ajax form submission - Submit any form through ajax and show custom success or failure area inline without any page refresh!

  • Index/detail page in one - Show a product detail page inline in the same page as the index!
  • Load dynamic galleries - Show an index of available galleries and load the chosen one inline!

  • Dynamic dependent drop downs or other content - Create a separate page with a drop down control that is filtered and loaded inline with DMXzone Ajax Form.
  • Fully editable status sections - You can choose between two predefined success and error messages that are shown upon form submission. Both can be customized through the CSS.
 
 
  • Set target - Do you want to display a custom content area of your page and not the default one? Just enter its selector and add it into the set target field, for example #my_content. 
 
 
  • Get response - Do you want to display only a specific part of the form submission output - choose the selector of the target element, for example #my_body.
 
 
  • On submit actions - You can choose whether to hide or clean the form after submission.

  • Specified action - Choose where to submit your form, on the same page or specify other by adding the url to it.
 
  • Choose form method - Choose how to send the data - as URL variables (with method="get") or as HTTP post transaction (with method="post"). The "get" method has a limit to how much data you can place in a URL (it varies between browsers, and also between servers). The "post" method requires more processing on the server but has no size limitation.

  • Pick up enctype method - The enctype attribute specifies how the form-data should be encoded when submitting it to the server (Note: The enctype attribute can be used only if method="post").

 
  • Pick up ID name - Change the name of your div to fit your needs.
 
 
  • Full support for the DMXzone Behavior Connector - You can bind other DMXzone extensions through the Behavior Connector. When a form is successfully submitted custom action behavior is triggered or other extensions are controlled. For example you can open the response in an Advanced Tooltips.
 
 
  • Fully controllable by behaviors  - Choose which element to submit your form and control different sections (Form, Error and Success) with one of the following actions - toggle, show and hide.
 
 
  • Great Dreamweaver design preview - You can preview your forms directly in Dreamweaver and see how they look like.
