formsubmitter function

gistfile1.js

Template.customerCreate.rendered = function () {
  
    $('.formsubmitter').click(function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        var form = '#' + $(this).data('form-id');
        $(form).submit();
    });
}

yeah i know what your saying...the reason i'm using this formsumitter code is because my submit button is outside of my form for UI reasons

cheers for you help dude

wait, what even is going on here? You're passing form id's in as template data, to pull them out later to know which form to submit? Sounds hella complex. You wanna chat?

Incidentally, although it may not end up being relevant here, I do think there is call for global rendered/created/destroyed callbacks and have made the case on meteor-talk in the past. Not sure whether anything will happen, but I do think that there is a use case for this (even if it isn't this one), at least as a set of convenience methods.

ok, permission to hit me. i realise now that i can just get the form id from the event handler. i pasted the code from a previous non meteor project and didn't check it.

but yes agree with @richsilv, global rendered functions is still a need
