I am not a javascript or Ajax programmer, so JQuery is new to me. I have taken over the completion of a website for a friend and have hit a strange occurance.
The site designer utilized CodeIgniter framework and it appears well wriiten and well commented. Here's the Issue: Thers a form in a php file that the user uses to pick clothing pieces from 4 drop downs. Once a piece is chosen,the shitrt, the drawing is immediately updated into a sketch box with the chosen article. The next piece chosen is added to the sketch until all required pieces create an outfit. Since this is real time updates, I am assuming it is Ajax. Once the user is done, they submit the form clicking the "Save" or "Order" button which calls a function in another library. If all required choices are not met, it relay a error message to the user. I assume this is all done in JQuery. I need to determine which submit button was hit. When I view the POST array, all the choices are there except the submit button. If I comment out the inclusion of Jquery, the submit button shows up in the POST; however the sketch drawing do not work, nor does the form validation. Is there a way to fix this? Does JQuery strip out some of the POST array either directly or indirectly? Does anyone have a workaround or ideas. As I said, I am a JS noob. I thank you all in advance for any help you can provide.
