Re: How to Href to a PortletAction

[Georg Filios]

Hi,

sorry couldnt live with javascript. So I found the solution for  
accessing jsp action from a link.
Perhaps this might be interesting for other people.

So if you have a working Action-class and a form like this:

<FORM NAME="myform" METHOD="POST">
        <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="js_peid" VALUE="<%=jspeid%>"/>
        <table>
                <tr>
                        <td align="center">
                                <INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT"  NAME="eventSubmit_doModusedit" 
VALUE="Edit" />
                        </td>
                </tr>
        </table>
</form>
But you want to access this from a link (without a post, bo javascript):

then do the following (or better wrap it in a taglib):
        ....
        RunData data = (RunData) request.getAttribute("rundata");
        String jspeid = (String) request.getAttribute("js_peid");
        
        JetspeedLink link = JetspeedLinkFactory.getInstance(data);
        DynamicURI duri = link.getAction("CompanyProfilAction", jspeid);
    	String outLink=duri.toString()+"&js_peid=" + jspeid +  
"&eventSubmit_doModusedit=Edit";
%>

<a href="<%=outLink%>">Edit</a><br>

Regards,

Georg

Thanks Jain,

for the tip.

At least I do have a workaround.

But since I do not fancy javascript very much,
is there a better solution using jetspeed-java-functionality ...
Regards,

Georg

Georg:

You can call a javascript function where you do the submit:

function linkSubmit()
{
        frm = document.forms[0]; // whatever
        frm.action=whatever;
....
        frm.submit();
}
Hope this helps

Subject: JSP: How to Href to a PortletAction
Hi,

I was walking through  the mail archive, but couldnt find a solution
(shame on me, using the wrong search words??)!
Anyway here is my problem, i havent found solved in a jsp-template.

I wrote a portlet, which shows some data. I Extended the
JSPActionPortlet class for this.
It has some welldefined actions, like "doUpdate(...)"
Calling these actions from within a form workes fine (using a submit
button with the value "eventSubmit_doUpdate").
So far ok.

Now I want to call a PortletAction  from a link.
something like <a href="XXXX?action=eventSubmit_doUpdate")!
The Problem is, how do I fill the XXXX with the correct values? (i.e.
jspeid etc.)!
Thanx for help

cheers,

georg
