Here is the answer that I was provided & used:
1. You can use the ${somethingFromTheValueStack} notation like so:
onclick="onjavaScriptMethod('${value}');"
I tried this but missed the ' marks because it's been so long since I
did any JavaScript. I haven't tried this trick in an actual embedded
script or script file. Just jsp's. Would be nice if it worked. Does
anyone know if it does?
2. If you map the action to a jsp fragment, it can be placed in a div like so:
//First you need to get the request & handle some platform crap.
var request = false;
try {
request = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch (trymicrosoft) {
try {
request = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (othermicrosoft) {
try {
request = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch (failed) {
request = false;
}
}
}
if (!request)
alert("Error initializing XMLHttpRequest!");
//***************************************************************
//Functions.
//***************************************************************
//Execute the action
function checkSomething(string) {
var url = string + "/context/DoSomething.action";
request.open("GET", url, true);
request.onreadystatechange = updatePage();
request.send(null);
}
//Update the page.
//Put the results in the div & display.
//Note there are two div tags. One is for results and the other for
processing messages like "Loading...".
function updatePage() {
var d = document.getElementById("divResults");
d.innerHTML = 'Loading...';
var d1 = document.getElementById("divProcessing");
d1.style.display="block";
if (request.readyState == 4)
d.innerHTML = request.responseText ;
d1.style.display="none";
}
