'how to get the input value using express and AJAX. How to make it work?
I have two files app.js and test.ejs with code:
app.js
const express = require('express')
const app = express()
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
app.set('view engine', 'ejs')
app.get('/', function (req, res) {
res.render('pages/test'); });
app.post("/", function (request, response) {
console.log(`info - ${request.body.test}`); });
app.listen(3000, console.log('port: 3000'))
test.ejs
...<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>...
...<input id="fn_test" name="test" onkeyup="showResult(this.value)" type="text" required /> ...
... <script>
function showResult(str) {
$.ajax({
url: "/",
method: "POST",
contentType: "application/json",
success: (result) => { }
});
}
...</script>
Console response: info - undefined
