form.html

<!-- Bootstrap trigger to open modal -->
<a data-toggle="modal" href="#rating-modal">Write a Review</a>

<div class="hide fade modal" id="rating-modal">
  <div class="modal-header">
    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
    <h2>Your Review</h2>
  </div>

  <div class="modal-body">
    <!-- The async form to send and replace the modals content with its response -->
    <form class="form-horizontal well" data-async data-target="#rating-modal" action="/some-endpoint" method="POST">
      <fieldset>
        <!-- form content -->
      </fieldset>
    </form>
  </div>

  <div class="modal-footer">
    <a href="#" class="btn" data-dismiss="modal">Cancel</a>
  </div>
</div>

@BurnedToast I try your code, but there is an issue here

$(document).on('submit', 'form[data-async]', function(event) {

if I change it to

$(document).on('submit', function(event) {

Works!

Hi, how to add loading indicator while saving?

@frozenade Put a div with id name of your choice and first line of the function add. In my example below I named the div id="processing"

$('#processing').html("<b>Saving...</b>");
