Bhaskar,
To the best of my knowledge, this approach outlined below has several
minor flaws. First, it is not possible for the javascipt self.slose()
method to throw a java exception; That exception is likely being thrown by
your action class. Second, in order to acomplish the functionality that it
appears you are describing, ie. submitting a form in a popup window and then
closing the window, you would need to do something like the following:
function setFilter() {
document.PipelineFilterForm.submit();
}
<html:button value="Set filter" onclick="javascript:setFilter();"
property="submitButton"/>
You may also consider using a regular html:submit button and avoid this
javascript above all together (preferable)
and then AFTER the form is submitted, have your action class forward to a
new generic page with some very simple code like
<html>
<head>
<script>
function closeWindow(){
self.close();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="closeWindow()">
</body>
</html>
OR
<html>
<head>
<script>
function closeWindow(){
self.close();
}
closeWindow();
</script>
</head>
</html>
Not sure if this is the best approach, but it ensures that your action class
succeeds before your window closes, so if there is an error you can forward
to a different page while still inside of the popup window.
Just my 2 cents,
Adam Grohs
