I bet your mail reader is reading my message as html. Here I have stripped
off the html tags:
in the <head>
<script>
// global js vars for this page
var var_hid1, var_hid2;
function setTheVars() {
var_hid1 = "abc";
var_hid2 = "def";
}
function submitTheForm(theAction) {
// set the hidden fields from the global vars
form1.hid1.value = var_hid1;
form1.hid2.value = var_hid2;
// set the form action
form1.action = theAction;
// check it out first
alert(form1.hid1.value);
alert(form1.action);
// just like hitting the submit button in a form
form1.submit();
}
</script>
</head>
in the <body>
<form id="form1" method="post">
<input type="hidden" id="hid1">
<input type="hidden" id="hid2">
</form>
<a href="javascript:setTheVars();submitTheForm('/servlet/ThisServlet',
var_hid1,var_hid2);">the link</a>
</body>
