Hello,
I have a form page where I check the mandatory inputs client-sided by the attribute 'required' (when clicking send button).
When all required inputs are done the send button click...
1.) should call a php file 'dbinsert.php' which just contains the save process of the form data to a database.
2.) But the success message should be shown on the SAME page, on top of the form page.
How can I implement this process under those 2 conditions?

I suppose that the send button's 'action' attrbute should be empty and the php file has to be called via Ajax (within a Javascript function?) !?
But unfortunately I fail in implementing THIS specific configuration.

Could you help me, please?
If so, please specify in your answer all necessary code lines like the form header, the submit button and the Javascript function that executes the Ajax call (and also fires the success message, I suppose)?
Thank you so much!

The following constellation does not work:
* <FORM NAME="Betrugseingabe" ACTION="../cgi-bin/DBinsert.php" METHOD=POST>
* <INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="Absenden" VALUE="Absenden" ID="Schaltflaeche1" formtarget="_self">

I forgot to say that you didn't post enough 'DBinsert' code for me to tell if you will get a response back from the ajax call. Also, in the 'DBinsert.php' file you should check to make sure every value needed is supplied in the $_POST array before doing the database insert.
