AjaxHandler\JQuery
Currently the only available AjaxHandler.
It uses the jQuery library (www.jquery.com). The jQuery library is not included. Please include it yourself.
Note: Since version 1.5.0 AjaxHandler_JQuery requires jQuery 1.7 or higher.
IMPORTANT: With version 2.2.0 AjaxHandler\JQuery was rewritten
The JS code has JQuery plugin style now and multiple AJAX forms on a page should not interfere with eachother anymore.
As a result the options "alias", "ajaxSubmitCallback" and "ajaxValidationCallback" have no effect anymore.
If you want to use callbacks, please configure a formID in your TypoScript and add this id to your form tag. Then, you can bind these events:
Properties

.autoDisableSubmitButton
If you use AJAX validation, you can disable the submit button until all error checks are valid. If you set this option to "1" Formhandler adds the attribute "disabled" to the submit button. If all AJAX based validation is valid, the attribute is removed and the user can submit the form.
To be able to style the submit button or other stuff based on the validation status, you can add the marker ###validation-status### to your form.
You have to set a formID in TypoScript and in the HTML template for your form!
Data type
Boolean | cObj
Version added

.ajaxSubmit
If set to "1", the form is submitted using an AJAX post request.
The container of the form is replaced with the response HTML.
Data type
Boolean | cObj
Version added

Important
File uploads do not work when using ajaxSubmit. ajaxSubmit doesn't work with disableWrapInBaseClass=1.
.ajaxSubmitLoader
When the form was submitted using AJAX, this text/HTML is shown until the response from the server arrives. So this setting is only useful in combination with ajaxSubmit.
The content of this setting is put into the marker ###loading_ajax-submit###.
Data type
String | cObj
Default value
<span class="loading_ajax-submit"><img src="typo3conf/ext/formhandler/Resources/Images/ajax-loader.gif"></span>
Version added

.ajaxSubmitCallback
