How can I submit a form to more than one URL at the same click? Like the following (hypothetical):
<form action="url1" action="url2" method="post">
...
<input type=submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
You can do a sequential submit.
Submit to the first URL, and create a hidden form with all the fields from the original form.
After processing the form, if needed, call the submit action through javascript to go to the second action.

I need to create a form that by clicking on it will redirect to another website with special 'inputs' tags values.
something like:
<form action="http://example.com" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="val1" value="something">
<input type="hidden" name="val2" value="else">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Go">
</form>
The custom HTML feature that I find will put it inside an iframe, and it looks bad. Is there a way to do it that will look 'normal'?
If you utilize Wix Code you can develop that inside your Wix page without the need of any html forms.
Simple solution:
- Add the form input elements you need on your page
- Add a button to click on
- Add av event handler to the button and grab the values from the input fields
- Send that data to any site or redirect the user to the site you want using wixLocation.to("url") with the query parameters you might need from the form.
When i click a radbutton then postback changing page url as /blabla.aspx?btnMsg_ClientState=&btnCarDetails=Sorgula&btnCarDetails_ClientState=&btnPrice_ClientState=&btnReject_ClientState=# ..
First pop-up work but then break.
There are 5 extra buttons and seems all in page url. Where is coming these query strings ?
Ie Developer tools says:
ScriptResource.axd...
I cant find solution, please help.
It appears that the form on your page is configured to use a GET request when submitted.
<form id="form1" runat="server" method="get">
In this case all parameters on the page are specified as part of the URL, which includes the input elements that are used for rendering the button, as well as the other input elements on your page.
You can change this behavior by setting the method attribute of the form to post, so that a POST request is utilized for submitting the form.
<form id="form1" runat="server" method="post">
In this case the parameters will be passed in the message body of the HTTP request.
I have an issue with my portlet and I don't know exactly how to solve it.
My portlet adds or retrieves info from liferay's DB by inserting a name in 2 text fields.
After pressing the submit button, I see the response from the server, a JSON response like this:
{"id":301,"name":"Pepo"}
If a user correctly inserted or if the search throws a good result. I have to go back in the browser to see the portal again.
How can I use AJAX to pass the following URL dynamically from the portlet to the server without refreshing the page afterwards?
http://localhost:8080/c/portal/json_service?serviceClassName=com.liferay.test.service.TrabajadorServiceUtil&serviceMethodName=findByName&servletContextName=TrabajadorPlugin-portlet&serviceParameters=[param1]¶m1=NameInsertedByUser
Now I'm using the <form> tag like this:
<%
//Shows "New Employee" in the text field when portlet is rendered, or gets the user input and pass it as a param to the URL
PortletPreferences prefs = renderRequest.getPreferences();
String employee = (String)prefs.getValue("name", "New Employee");
%>
<form id="postForm" method="post" action="http://localhost:8080/c/portal/json_service">
<input name="serviceClassName" type="hidden" value="com.liferay.test.service.TrabajadorServiceUtil" />
<input name="serviceMethodName" type="hidden" value="create" />
<input name="servletContextName" type="hidden" value="TrabajadorPlugin-portlet" />
<input name="serviceParameters" type="hidden" value="[param]" />
<input name="param" type="text" value="<%=employee%>" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
I understand how AJAX works, but I need some help to create my function in order to achieve the URL to be correctly sent to the server for both GET and POST requests. This is my first try with AJAX.
Thank you very much, hope somebody understands my problem and could help me.
First of all, I see no point at all to use JSON services here. Just write ordinary portlet with MVC Controller, and in controller write action handling for corresponding actions (storing data, searching etc).
In controller you can directly call static methods like create or findByName from java class com.liferay.test.service.TrabajadorServiceUtil (or TrabajadorLocalServiceUtil) - that's how people usually do it.
If for some reason you really must use JSON, you should of course do these actions with AJAX calls - and render results using JavaScript.
Updating after question update:
The easiest and most correct way to send AJAX requests in Liferay would be to use AlloyUI JS framework that's a part of Liferay. You can read more on how to send AJAX requests with it here: http://www.liferay.com/web/nathan.cavanaugh/blog/-/blogs/4733559
In order to accomplish your goal I'd suggest implementing processAction(ActionRequest actRequest, ActionResponse actResponse) method in your controller/portlet.
In order to actually send data to it you'll have to have actionURL, which you can create using for example portlet:actionURL tag:
<portlet:actionURL /> or with Java code PortletURL actionUrl = portletResponse.createActionURL();
Then just submit your form using POST to this URL, and in actionRequest you'll have your parameters.
This seems simple enough but there are complications...
I have a facebook FBML static page where I want users to sign up to my magento newsletter.
I think I'm right in saying typically you can put the form code as below into the fbml page and on submit it will add the user to the newsletter;
<form action="http://my-site.com/newsletter/subscriber/new/" method="post" id="newsletter-validate-detail">
<fieldset class="block-content">
<legend>Newsletter</legend>
<label id="newsletter-label" for="newsletter" class="left">Join our mailing list</label>
<div class="input-box left">
<input name="email" type="text" id="newsletter" class="input-text required-entry validate-email" />
</div>
<button id="newsletter-submit" type="submit" class="button btn-submit"><span>Join</span></button>
</fieldset>
</form>
But of course at my site I have an ajax function that returns a thanks for registering, so when this submit is sent from fb, this just lands me at a confirmation message on my domain that is supposed to feed through java and say thanks very much for signing up.
So what I need is some way of posting the action, but keeping the user on facebook, or at least leaving them at some other landing page after the action.
Something that posts but doesn't redirect, or something that posts then redirects to something other than the url in the form action?
Not sure if I need ajax for this or if js is even allowed within the fb environment, could I use any of their proprietary FBML to achieve this?
Many thanks
Could you add onSubmit="handleData(); return false;" to your form so it doesn't submit? and use the handleData() function to proccess the data in whatever way you need? This will keep the user from moving off the current page.
I can not get the form to submit with the button. The best luck I have had is to send a generic email with no data attached.
This is the code:
<input name="mailto: info#thebellimagegroup.com" type="submit" onClick=mailto: info#thebellimagegroup.com value="Submit Form" id="mailto: info#thebellimagegroup.com" >
the value is: /frms/contact.con
Can anyone help????
Submit buttons generally aren't used for storing information -- as a rule, they just submit the page, and any other information (such as the email recipient's address) will be put in other inputs in the form. For example:
<form action="/frms/contact.con" method="post">
<label>Subject: <input type="text" name="subject" value="" /></label>
<label for="message-editor">Message</label>
<textarea name="message" rows="6" cols="60" id="message-editor"></textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
<input type="hidden" name="recipient" value="info#thebellimagegroup.com" />
</form>
In this example, the "action" attribute of the FORM element specifies the script on the server which will process the information once someone clicks Submit. The hidden input which I have named "recipient" specifies the email address, and the value of that will be sent in along with the rest of the form when it's submitted. All the submit button itself does is cause the browser to send the finished form off to the server for processing.
Note that the example I've given here probably won't work with your particular script, because the names I've selected for the example inputs ("subject", "message", and "recipient") probably don't match the ones your script expects.
Do you have documentation on how the /frms/contact.con script works? If so, check it -- it should tell you what to name your form elements. Failing that, and assuming that you know whatever programming language it was written in, you could read the code in contact.con to see what names it's expecting.
If all else fails, try a different server-side script, there are about eight zillion available.
