    Hi,
    I have a form:

    <form name="" action="" method="post" class="pure-form pure-form-aligned">
    <input type="hidden" name="postback" value="yes">
    <input type="hidden" name="contract_id" value="120">
    <fieldset>
    <div class="pure-control-group">
    <label for="contract_name">Contract Name</label>
    <input id="contract_name" name="contract_name" type="text" placeholder="Contract Formal Name" class="pure-input-1-2" value="XXXXX" required="">
    </div>
    <div class="pure-control-group">
    <label for="period_start_date">Period Start Date</label>
    <input id="period_start_date" name="period_start_date" type="text" placeholder="Start Date" style="width:150px;" value="XXXX" data-toggle="datepicker1" required="">
    </div>
    <div class="pure-control-group">
    <label for="period_end_date">Period End Date</label>
    <input id="period_end_date" name="period_end_date" type="text" placeholder="End Date" style="width:150px;" value="xxxxxx" data-toggle="datepicker1" required="">
    </div>
    </fieldset>

    <menu class="actions">
    <button type="submit" class="pure-button pure-button-primary">Save</button>
    </menu>
    </form>

    I have looked at all the js/jquery event handler possibilities: "button.pure-button....", "button", $('button[type="submit"]'), "#pure-button", "$(document).on('submit', '.popover form', function(e){". I doesn't appear to have a js event handler. That being said, the form is sent and the db is updated. I try to follow the form submission and can't. client side code doesn't seem to be receiving it. What am I missing?

    Is there a non-js recipient of this form submission? Can someone enlighten me?

    I have tried to use the Chrome dev tools to find where my form is submitted to. No luck.


    I don't know where modx is sending my form submission.....

      The form is posting to itself. If you look at the page containing the form, or its template, you could see a snippet tag like the one below:

      [[!SomeSnippetName]]



      The snippet is processing the submission and can be found on the Elements tab in the Manager under snippets.

      The snippet tag could also be contained in a chunk, in which case you'll see a chunk tag like this:

      [[$SomeChunk]]


      The snippet tag will be in the "SomeChunk" chunk.
