/**
 * Serializes form data into a 'submittable' string. This method will return a string

 *
 * The semantic argument can be used to force form serialization in semantic order.
 * If your form must be submitted with name/value pairs in semantic order then pass
 * true for this arg, otherwise pass false (or nothing) to avoid the overhead for
 * this logic (which can be significant for very large forms).
 *
 * @example var data = $("#myForm").formSerialize();
 * $.ajax('POST', "myscript.cgi", data);
 * @desc Collect all the data from a form into a single string
 *
 * @name formSerialize
 * @param semantic true if serialization must maintain strict semantic ordering of elements (slower)
