Hi everyone I've been testing some old sites to start using some jQuery .post goodness and I came across an oddity I decided to serialize() my form data so I don't have to specify the exact data I want posted on loads of different pages.
However I notice the value of any submit buttons isn't serialized. Took me many hours to figure that out today. I have a few scripts which branch based on which submit buttons are pressed - it's perfectly acceptable to have more than one and even with different name attributes. I'm guessing it's probably a technical reason as to why submit buttons aren't serialized as it's quite different from the behaviour of regular non-JS HTML forms. Is this on any lists of planned changes for the dev gurus? Is it worth me filing something in the bugs system? One suggestion though... it's probably worth mentioning this on the wiki page for the serialize function as it's definitely not obvious that's what happens. I will create an account and do this if anyone agrees... anything to prevent others from wasting their time!
