Hi Stein,
You want - On first invocation of servlet call doPost() , and on second
invocation of the same servlet call doGet() .
I can suggest a HTML/JavaScript trick . Instead of having a usual Submit
button in the form, u can have two normal form buttons(say b1 & b2). On
onClick() event of b1 u will call -
function b1Click(form) {
form.action = "http://server/Servlet/someservlet"
form.method = "POST"
form.submit()
}
And, on onClick() of b2 u can call -
function b2Click(form) {
form.action = "http://server/Servlet/someservlet"
form.method = "GET"
form.submit()
}
If u want strict ordering for clicking b1 & b2(i.e click b1 after b2), u
can write some html/javascript for this. I can help the ordering problem
also if u want.
I hope, this should solve ur purpose.
