I have a onclick event on a submit button in my CI app. So when user clicks submit, it goes to my js function that disables the button, but it does not continue processing. I used this "document.forms["mainFrm"].submit();", but because of the way the code is written I need it to go directly to a controller and finish processing.

So how do I call a CI controller from my js function?

Here is the function that is being called onClick:

Code:
function disableWhenSubmit()

{

 alert ("You did get here");

 var holdBtnElement = document.getElementById('btn_Add');

 holdBtnElement.disabled = true;

 holdBtnElement.value = "sending ...";

 //document.forms["createRequestForm"].submit();

 &lt;?= base_url();?&gt;index.php/request"; //this is what I am working on

}

and here is the button:

Code:
&lt;input type="submit" id="btn_Add" name="btn_Add" value="Submit"&gt;
