Use jquery's form methods to serialize the form variables and send via ajax.

http://api.jquery.com/category/forms/

You can add some javascript logic to ANY submit methods by passing a function to the form's submit event handler.

Eg.

$('#my_form').submit(function(){
  alert('Handler for .submit() called.');
  return false;
});

Returning false blocks the form from being submitted by all other methods (including the "traditional" submit button). You'd put your ajax code before the return statement.

or add bind the submit function to ANY dom element (image,button,etc.) Eg.

$('#my_cool_image').click(function() {
  $('#my_form').submit();
});

See more at http://api.jquery.com/submit/

Good Luck

Use javascript. Something like

document.forms["myform"].submit();

or

document.myform.submit();

You need to set the name (1. example) or id (2. example) attribute for your form to make this work.
