  1. POCalling JQuery event as function from elsewhere in code...?
    text
    copied!<p>Okay, pretty straight forward JQuery question that I am struggling to find an answer for:</p> <p>I have a JQuery event that is called on button click:</p> <pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){ resetForms('reservation'); $('#form-reservation').submit(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); //the page will no longer refresh on form submit. var resCheck = $(this).find('input[class="reservationid"]').val(); //now we have the reservation ID, let's perform our check. document.cancel_res.cancel_agree.checked = false; //document.cancel_res.cancel_agree.disabled = false; document.cancel_res.cancel_button.disabled=true; document.form_reservation.search_button.value="Searching..."; document.form_reservation.search_button.disabled=true; $.ajax({ url: 'inc/searchres.php', type: 'POST', data: 'resid='+resCheck, success: function(data){ //data is all the info being returned from the php file resetForms('reservation'); //clear forms document.form_reservation.search_button.value="Search Reservation"; document.form_reservation.search_button.disabled=false; $('#reservation-id').val(resCheck); //add read ID back into text box var jsonData = $.parseJSON(data); //BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH } }); }); }); </code></pre> <p>The function works perfectly... however, is there anyway to call this function without utilizing the submit event? I tried to take out everything after the <code>$('#form-reservation').submit(function(event){</code> call and place it in a separate function, and then call the function from the submit event. However, for whatever reason, this failed.</p> <p>Basically, I want the submit event to still trigger this function, but I also want to be able to call the entire function under other circumstances. Thanks in advance!</p>
