How to capture input field values in VF controller

I am using extension for a Custom Object .

Sample code:

 

<apex:page standardcontroller="Applied_SMP__c" extensions="ApplyAccountSMPAgain">
<apex:PageBlock >
<apex:pageMessages />
<apex:form >
<apex:pageblocksection title="Apply SMP" >
<apex:panelGrid columns="2">
<apex:panelGroup >
<b><label>SMP</label></b>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<apex:outputText value="{!name}"/>
</apex:panelGroup></apex:panelGrid>
<br/>
<apex:inputField value="{!Applied_SMP__c.Assign_To__c}"/>
<apex:inputField value="{!Applied_SMP__c.Start_Date__c}"/>
</apex:pageblocksection>

Hi,

The extension controller needs to have the below code:- 

 

public class ApplyAccountSMPAgain 
{
	private Applied_SMP__c aSMP;//This variable will hold the values entered from VF page
	public ApplyAccountSMPAgain(ApexPages.StandardController stdController)
	{
		aSMP = (Applied_SMP__c)stdController.getRecord();
	}
}

If you're down to use jQuery JsRemoting is pretty powerful. 

Visualforce.remoting.Manager.invokeAction('{!$RemoteAction.Your Controller.Your get method in apex}',
                          Variable your passing in method,
                          function(result, event)
                          { 
                            Do what you do.

                                    
                          },{escape: true});

 
Also, your get method will need to have a 
@remoteaction above it and it will have to be a global method.
