php - jQuery .Post after javascript:submit_contact() -

i'm trying submit little contact form.

here jquery post:

<script> $(document).ready(function(){ function submit_contact() { $.post("http://www.domain.com/wp-content/themes/toronto/handlers/contact.php", { contact_text: $("[name='contact_text']").val(), contact_email: $("[name='contact_email']").val(), }, function(data){ console.log( info ); }); } }); </script>

here html handles form:

<form method="post" > <textarea id="contact_me_text" name="contact_text">ask me anything!</textarea> <div> <input type="text" name="contact_email" value="email"/><br/><br/> <a id="contact_submit" href="javascript:submit_contact()">submit</a> </div> </form>

everything seems ok form not submitting. i've run .php file through regular submit , works fine.

any thoughts?

you need declare function outside of $(document).ready() , phone call using anything.

why can't ?

as local variables cannot accessed outside, local functions cannot accessed.

php jquery .post
