I have this form, but this form inside PHP foreach function that gives the value from database, so I can't give the form id because redundancy will happened. And when click on any star in stars rating it will do as a submit, go to function so in the function I want to submit the form without id how? 

<form class="watching-us-reating-form" name="swatching-us-reating-form" action=" method="get">
    <input type="hidden" name="watchlist_id" value="<?php echo $fundAndUserWatchingThem['contactId']?>">
    <!-- This hidden field used to save the value of the rating before submit -->
    <input type="text" name="priority" class="watching-us-reating-value">

    <!-- This DIV to contain the stars rating -->
    <div class="watching-us-rating-div" data-score="<?php echo $flag; ?>" data-number="<?php echo $numberOfStars; ?>"></div>
</form>

  • @Manibharathi i believe its different since here he want to submit particular form with require use of other code/function and have certain condition instead just submitting form – NullPoiиteя Jun 04 '14 at 12:03

You can use closest() to get the form element related to the clicked star rating:

$('.watching-us-rating-div').click(function() {
    $(this).closest('form').submit();
});

Also, your form tag is missing an action - is that an error in your example?

  • Thank you, about the action i will add it but i has an inquiry! how i will save the data as a value inside the text field from the jquery function? without id because also a redundancy will happened? – user3706803 Jun 04 '14 at 12:05
  • @user3706803 that value will be sent to your server side script to be saved wherever you require. – Rory McCrossan Jun 04 '14 at 12:09
