My problem is simple, yet annoying. Instead of sending form data to the server, I just want to access the entered data on the front end. I figured I could do that by using the parameters that show up after I submit the form.

My jQuery submit event, however, is executing before the parameters change on the URL! My logic, then, doesn't use the correct data. How do I fix this? See below: 

listen: function() {
  $('form').submit(this.init.bind(this))
}

I need the URL parameters to change first, then have this event execute! How do I fix it?

You could put a delay on it. Probably more effective, you could simply use .serialize().

    Serialize works beautifully. The key is to not get the data from the URL if you need it before the submit event finishes! THANK YOU! – anders32 Sep 25 '14 at 01:41
