jQuery Web Development Front End Technology

For this, use document.getElementById(“”) along with addEventListener().

Example

Following is the code −

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
   <meta charset="UTF-8">
   <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
   <title>Document</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<body>
   <form id="details">
      FirstName:
         <label><input type="text" id="firstName" /> </label>
         <br>
      LastName:
         <label><input type="text" id="lastName" /> </label>
         <br>
      <input type="submit">
   </form>
</body>
<script>
   const formDetails = document.getElementById("details");
   formDetails.addEventListener("submit", async (ev) => {
      ev.preventDefault();
      var fName = document.getElementById("firstName").value;
      var lName = document.getElementById("lastName").value;
      console.log("First Name=" + fName);
      console.log("Last Name=" + lName);
   })
</script> 
</html>
