I am posting modal data to a back end using HTML post and action attr. The form post fine and updates the backend as well the only thing is after pressing submit the url changes and takes me to my POST url. How can this be stopped? I want to stay on the same page after clicking submit and just have the backend update without being taken to my POST url. 

<form method="POST"id="goForm"action="http://post_endpoint"enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded">
    Name: <input type="text" value="">
    <button type="submit value="submit">Send<button>

</form>
