How laravel set path for ajax and forms - ajax

Question

I have simple question:
How laravel set correct path for ajax or form action?
I have my laravel instalation in
localhost/laravel-test/public
Ok and lets say i have url opened: localhost/laravel-test/public/hello
<form method="post" action="some/very/long/path">
<input type="submit" value="just-test" />
</form>
Now i hit just-test button, and its always know where it should start routing - allways start from public/[route here].
I was try to do my own routing system, but i have problem because its going to addres:
localhost/my-framework/public/hello/some/very/long/path
It allways put after public my actual url, and then after form action..
So my question is how laravel know it should get
localhost/laravel-test/public/some/very/long/path
It works same for jquery ajax request for ex:
$.ajax({
url: "test.html",
context: document.body
})
Laravel console output:
localhost/laravel-test/public/test.html
My custom framework console output
localhost/my-framework/public/actualpath/test.html

Answer 1

For the form action you can use the url or route helper. Like so:
{{ url('very/long/path') }}
And for your front end part.
$('#form').live('submit', function(event) {
$form = $(this);
$.ajax({
url: $form.attr('action')
});
});

I think this is what you're looking for.
In routes.php
Route::post('some-very-long-uri', ['as' => your-name', 'uses' => 'YourController#method']);
Then you can do something like that
<form method="post" action="{{ route('your-name') }}">
<input type="submit" value="just-test" />
</form>
and for ajax
$.ajax({
url: "{{ route('your-name') }}"
});
