Laravel ajax form submit validation message not working

Question

I'm using Laravel 5.2 and i'm using Laravel's Form Post Validation method. It is validating as expected. But if validation fails it should return the error message as JSON since i'm sending an ajax request. But it is returning the previous page as html. My request is looks like :

as per Laravel Docs in https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/validation#working-with-error-messages it shoud return a json. Is there anything i missed ?

Check your headers, try "Accept": "application/json" or dataType : 'json' — Adam Mańkowski

When validation fails, the response is 422 HTTP status code. In ajax you need get it in error: section.

It'll be like following:

$.ajax({
    url: url,
    type: "POST",
    data: formData,
    success: function(data) {
        // Process if there is not error
    },
    error: function(data){
        // Error in json object. Process with errors.
    }
});
