JSP action help(Basic question)

Hi,
I need some help in JSP action call. The scenario is like this.
I have a jsp page with 2 buttons create & modify. I have to write same Action class for both buttons but with different sequence(or methods).
How do i do that?
Thanks in advance,
Rashmi

hai,
i think u can do like this.onclick of the first button u call a function,do the needed things and then submit the form.similarly in the onclick of the second button,call the other function,do the needed things and then submit the form.in this way u can run the same class with different functions.
<script language="javascript">
function submitform1()
{
.....
form.submit();
}
function submitform2()
{
.....
form.submit();
}
</script>
thanks,

Hi,
I think my question is misleading. Let me explain it
I have a action class for the jsp called TestAction.java.
In the TestJSP.jsp i have Save & Submit as two button. Both on click of Save & Submit i'll be calling same action class. But within action based on the request parameter i have to call the different methods....
I hope this question is more clear. please help me.'
Thanks

Hi,
in the jsp file you could have a hidden field
<input type=hidden name=toDo>
when a button in clicked you could call a javascript that sets a value into this hidden field and then submit the form to the servlet.
In the servlet, you could do a
request.getParameter("toDo");
then depending on the value returned, call the appropriate function.
Hope this helps.

ya i got the question.
for this u can do like this.in the java class u can check which button is clicked. u can use 'request.getParameter("button")'.if button is clicked it returns the value else null.by doing this u can get which button is clicked and can call corresponding function.
or u can place the buttons in different forms and can run different classes if there functionality is total different.
have any questions pls let em know.
thanks,
