Submitting form data

Traditionally, when submitting form data, the browser makes an API call for you to submit the data.

With SuperTokens, you will have to make this API call yourself so that correct session interception is added.

<html>
<body>

<form onsubmit="return submitData()">
Enter name: <input type="text" name="fname">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

<script>
supertokens.init(/* params.. */); // initialise SuperTokens
</script>

<script>
function submitData() {
// extract element out of the user input field and call API using fetch or axios

return false; // will prevent any redirection that happens when a form is submitted.
}
</script>

</body>
</html>
