I have a jQuery function that does the insert of an image with other fields to the database. Currently my function only inserts the image but does not insert the other form fields. I am using formData object and I don’t understand how to append my fields together with the image file so I can pass it to the ajax request body.
Here is what I have tried so far:
// submit function
function Submit_highschool() {
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$("#highschool").submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$("#progress").html(
'Inserting <i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin" aria-hidden="true"></i></span>');
var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
var firstname_h = $("#firstname_h").val();
var middlename_h = $("#middlename_h").val();
formData.append(firstname_h, middlename_h);
$.ajax({
url: 'insertFunctions/insertHighSchool.php',
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
async: true,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
success: function(returndata) {
alert(returndata);
},
error: function(xhr, status, error) {
console.error(xhr);
}
});
return false;
});
});
}// html form
<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="highschool">
<div class="card" id="highschool">
<div class="col-3">
<label for="firstname">First name *</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="firstname_h" placeholder="First name" />
</div>
<div class="col-3">
<label for="middlename">Middle name *</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="middlename_h" placeholder="Middle name" />
</div>
<div class="col-6">
<label for="grade11_h">Grade 11 Transcript (image) *</label>
<input type="file" class="form-control" name="grade11_h" id="grade11_h" accept=".png, .jpg, .jpeg">
</div>
<button type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-primary float-right" onclick="Submit_highschool();">Submit</button>
</div>
</form>The image name is succesfully inserted in the db and the image is uploaded to the required target location,However, the fields – firstname and middlename are not inserted and I don’t understand how to append these properties to the formData.
How can I pass these fields to the formData please?
