I have a react form and a submit button in the end, when you submit it’s supposed to have a popup dialog to inform you that your message is sent but the pages get refreshed fast and the dialog disappears. Below is my code
import * as React from 'react';
import './App.css';
import StarRating from './StarRating';
import StarRating2 from './StarRating2';
import StarRating3 from './StarRating3';
import { TextArea } from 'semantic-ui-react';
import AlertDialogSlide from './confirmation';
import Dialog from '@mui/material/Dialog';
import DialogActions from '@mui/material/DialogActions';
import DialogContent from '@mui/material/DialogContent';
import DialogContentText from '@mui/material/DialogContentText';
import Slide from '@mui/material/Slide';
import Button from '@mui/material/Button';
import { useState } from "react";
const Transition = React.forwardRef(function Transition(props, ref) {
return <Slide direction="up" ref={ref} {...props} />;
});
function App() {
const [open, setOpen] = React.useState(false);
const [comment, setComment] = useState("");
const [rating1, setRating1] = useState("");
const handleClickOpen = () => {
setOpen(true);
};
const handleClose = () => {
setOpen(false);
};
const onSubmitForm = async e => {
e.preventDefault();
try {
const body = { rating1, comment };
const response = await fetch("http://localhost:5000/feedback", {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
body: JSON.stringify(body)
});
window.location = "/";
} catch (err) {
console.error(err.message);
}
};
return (
<form onSubmit={onSubmitForm} >
<div className="App">
<img src='solavievelogo.png'></img>
<hr/>
<h2>Leave a feedback!</h2>
<StarRating value={rating1} updateRating={(e) => setRating1(e)}
onChange={e => setRating1(e.target.value)}></StarRating>
<hr2/>
<StarRating2></StarRating2>
<hr2/>
<StarRating3></StarRating3>
<hr2/>
<p>Please leave a comment about your experience below:</p>
<TextArea placeholder=' Type your comment here...'
value={comment}
onChange={e => setComment(e.target.value)}
></TextArea>
<br/>
<button class="Button" type='submit' variant="outlined" onClick={handleClickOpen}><span
class="Button-inner">SEND FEEDBACK</span> </button>
<Dialog
open={open}
TransitionComponent={Transition}
keepMounted
onClose={handleClose}
aria-describedby="alert-dialog-slide-description"
>
<DialogContent>
<img src='confirm.png'></img>
<DialogContentText id="alert-dialog-slide-description">
<p>Thank you for your message!</p>
<p> We will be in contact soon..</p>
</DialogContentText>
</DialogContent>
<DialogActions >
<button class="Button" type='submit' onClick={handleClose} ><span class="Button-
inner">Close</span> </button>
</DialogActions>
</Dialog>
</div>
</form>
);
}
export default App;
When I click submit the popup dialog shows but the page refresh very fast while I want that dialog to stay because the user have to confirm. Any ideas how to solve it ?
>Solution :
you can set window location on handle close function
const handleClose = () => {
setOpen(false);
window.location = "/";
};
So that it will only go to that route when the handle is closed
