Reset to default 3Try the following snippet. In the form I have added a target="_blank" so that it won't affect the current page. Also just to be sure I have added a javascript code to check whether the entered form data values are actually submitting via a console log.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("form").submit(function() {
Fname = $("input[name='fname']").val();
Lname = $("input[name='lname']").val();
Address = $("input[name='address']").val();
console.log("First Name " + Fname);
console.log("Last Name " + Lname);
console.log("Address " + Address);
return false;
})
});
