want to send a value to a sevlet

[saikrishna cinux]

I am sending som values of the textfields to a servlet..
and i have two buttons one is save button and the other is edit button in the form.

for this i am using java script for sending the control to appropriate one.

in save method//method saveValues(){

document.BluePrintForm.action="/VisuTestingServices/servlet/com.vlms.vts.grandtest.gre.blueprint.GreBluePrint?fun="save";
}

in edit method//method editValues(){

document.BluePrintForm.action="/VisuTestingServices/servlet/com.vlms.vts.grandtest.gre.blueprint.GreBluePrint?fun="edit";
}

i am able to send the fields but along with this i want to send one intger value(constant). to the servlet..
so what changes need to be done to the url for sending the constant value.


I have tried with this url but not getting the value it shows null value in the console.

document.BluePrintForm.action="/VisuTestingServices/servlet/com.vlms.vts.grandtest.gre.blueprint.GreBluePrint?fun=save&constvalue="+value;




please somebody help me ....

How are you getting "constvalue"? There must be some mistake in retrieving the value.

[saikrishna cinux]

i am getting the constant value by incrementing i value. like for loop. in the jsp file

so i want to send that value of i to the servlet .
did u get it?

[Christophe Verré]

Did you use &constvalue="<%= value %>" ?

On an unrelated issue, you're using the invoker servlet, but The Invoker Servlet Is Evil. You might want to address that before you go into production.

This is strange. Appending query string parameters through javascript is working if the request is submitted with HTTP POST. But if the method is GET, all the parameters that were appended are being overwritten by the parameters in the form.

[Ben Souther]

That's what method="get" does.
The browser is doing that.
It's not related to JSP.

If you want a value computed by Javascript to be sent with the form data, write it into a hidden field in the form.
