//"mark" the input name =flag as spam
$(":hidden[name='flag']","
fElement.toggle();

Greg's answer covers it mostly, but isn't clear in describing how you'd prefer to "not to use a serverside PHP solution".
You'll still need PHP, since javascript cannot interact with the DB. Using jquery's ajax method is the proper solution. jQuery also provides a nice function for serializing a form into a data structure you cvan submit via jQuery's ajax. http://api.jquery.com/serialize/
So you can do something like:
Alternatively, there are nice jquery plugins that do most of this already. Check out http://www.jainaewen.com/files/javascript/jquery/iframe-post-form.html or http://jquery.malsup.com/form/

"and to send the form into a php page that will update the db"
I was talking about it being a standard javascript handler into a standard PHP receipt page (alas - url: 'myphpsubmitpage.php') that only takes name||value pairs, instead of using an old standard HTML form submit to a PHP page of POST retrieval of each data element to achieve your name||value pairs.
I felt the OP has shown enough aptitude in the code presented to understand classic PHP solutions, and wanted to highlight the jQuery structure alternative.
By all the logic being generated in javascript - data retrieval, validation, sending to server, processing success and completion - makes it not a server side PHP solution.

How is the 'formSubmit.php will access the variables (in data)
If I would use POST or GET the script will go to the $_POST array what do I need to do here?
Can I use .post() or .get() to do it? what will be the differences?
Thank you!

var url ="sem_page.php?page=leads&sub=manage";
var element = $(fieldName2);
element.toggle();
var fElement = $(fieldName1);
//checking to see if its not been marked as spam

}
//sumbitting the form
fElement.submit(function(e) {
// alert("Hello world!");
//fElement.attr('flag','1');
e.preventDefault();
//"mark" the input name =flag as spam
$(":hidden[name='flag']","#"+popup_form_id).val("on");
fElement.toggle();
//$.ajax(
alert(url);
$(popup_form_id).post("sem_page.php?page=leads&sub=manage");
})
Oh sorry so Im tring to do it in the way I added it and I keep getting the firebug error:

It looks like you'd prefer not to use a serverside PHP solution, and to have it completely run via javascript and ajax.
jQuery Ajax documentation is the page for structuring the name value pairs, and to achieve the method of operation you desire. You'll probably want to trigger this ajax event with an event handler that applies a javascript controlled submit.
The raw bones of the code ends up something like:
