An idea I haven't been able to fully evalute as of
yet:
If you don't want to reload the page you should use a
a) loadpanel or b) iframe (no NS4.x compability
though). Then you should only use a querystring (which
you construct from the form values and put together
with the url of the reciveing script) and load it -
not go to in the loadpanel/iframe. Loadpanel isn't
able to be positioned so you would probably want to
put it inside of another dynlayer.
something like this (not tested!)
myFormLayer= new DynLayer()
myFormlayer.setHTML("<form name='myForm'>Value1:<input
type='text' name='value1'>Value2:<input type='text'
name='value2'><input type='button'
onclick='doPost'><//form>")
DynAPI.document.addChild(myFormLayer)
myOutputLayer = new DynLayer()
myOutputLayerCanvas = new LoadPanel()
DynAPI.document.addChild(myOutputLayer)
myOutputLayer.addChild(myOutputLayerCanvas)
doPost=function(){
eval(myOutputLayerCanvas.setURL(\'formhandler.cgi?value1=\'+myForm.value1+\'&value2=\'+myForm.value2))
}
make sure you include all necessary DynAPI files; that
the recieving script handles QueryStrings and output
directly (no redirection or it will probably reload
into the window depending on serverside method); that
the data isn't topsecret (cause querystrings aren't as
safe as using regular post method)
let know if it works out for you.
