Hi,
The javascript idea is really great. Now, what should I do if I also want
some of the submission buttons to pass parameters to the action
page/servlet? For a hypothetical example, I may display a number of placed
orders retrieved from the database. The form will have a submit button at
the bottom for some purpose. But, next to each order, I also want to have a
submit button for the purpose of deleting the order . Therefore, the order
id, which is a dynamic value, should also be passed. I can think of two
solutions. One is to create a hidden input field. Then in the javascript
code for the "onclick" action, set the hidden input field value. The other
way is to add a dynamically created query string to the url of each submit
button. What do you guys think? If both ways work, which is better? Thanks!
Lin

Hi,
We may also have to submit the form using the javascript code to
explicitly submit the form. Bill, please correct me if i am wrong.
like :
<input type="submit" value="Submit 1"
Onclick="this.form.action='submit1.jsp';this.form.submit()">
bye,
vishwa
