Serialize( ) method


Serialize( ) method

The serialize( ) method serializes a set of input elements into a string of data. So we can say thatThe serialize() method creates a URL encoded text string by serializing form values. You can select one or more form elements (like input and/or text area), or the form element itself. The serialized values can be used in the URL query string when making an AJAX request.

Syntax:


$.serialize( )
