Hello,
Is it possible to submit a spring form via a javascript call? I know the
Spring form tags are tied to the command object, would this cause a problem
with calling it from javascript? I need to submit a form via a <form:select>
onchange event. I've gotten ahold of the form and whenever i try to call
form.submit() i get a javascript error: "form.submit is not a function".
Heres my jsp:
<script language="Javascript">
function procFormSubmission()
{
var form = document.getElementById("findPastWinningNumbersForm");
alert(form.action);
form.action = "findPastWinningNumbers.html?mode=update";
alert(form.action);
form.submit();
}
</script>
<spring:bind path="findPastWinningNumbers.*">
<c:if test="${*not empty *status.errorMessages}">
<div class="error">
<c:forEach var="error" items="${status.errorMessages}">
<img src="<c:url value="/images/iconWarning.gif"/>" alt="<fmt:message key="
icon.warning"/>" class="icon"/>
<c:out value="${error}" escapeXml="false"/><br />
</c:forEach>
</div>
</c:if>
</spring:bind>
<form:form commandName="findPastWinningNumbers" method="post" action="
findPastWinningNumbers.html?mode=submit" id="findPastWinningNumbersForm" >
<table>
<tr>
<td>Select a Game</td>
<td>
<form:select path="gameId" items="${gameList}" itemValue="id"
itemLabel="gamGameDesc"
onchange="javascript:procFormSubmission()"></form:select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Draw Type</td>
<td>
<form:select path="drawTypeId" items="${drawTypes}" itemValue="id" itemLabel
="drawTypeDesc" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Draw Date</td>
<td>
<form:input path="date" id="date" cssClass="text small" readonly="readonly"
/>
<button type="reset" id="f_trigger_b" style="width:30px">...</button>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td />
<td>
<input type="submit" class="button" name="submit" value="Find" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form:form>
