Description

When submitting data to the server (submit()), Editor will construct a data object internally, with the data required to be sent to the server for the request. This data is in the structure described in the Editor client / server communication documentation.

This method provides the ability to modify that data, including adding additional data if required.

In principle it operates in exactly the same way as jQuery's $.ajax.data property, in that it can be given as an object with parameters and values to submit, but Editor extends this by also providing it with the ability to be a function, to allow the data to be re-evaluated and modified upon each Ajax request (see above).
