如何在Jsoup中发送复选框数据

Question

I am trying to post checkbox data with Jsoup and am having a little trouble. I thought that when multiple checkboxes are selected, they are sent as an array to the server but maybe that is not the case?

This is what I thought was correct:

HashMap<String, String> postData = new HashMap<String, String>();
postData.put("checkbox", "[box1,box2,box3]");

Jsoup.connect("somesite").data(postData).post();

This does not seem to work properly. However, if I send only a single checkbox then I get my expected results leading me to believe my understanding of how checkbox form data sends is incorrect.

This works:

postData.put("checkbox", "box2");

Maybe HashMap is the wrong type to use. According to the Jsoup documentation I could just call .data(key, value) multiple times but I was hoping for something a little cleaner than that.

Answer 1

If you have multiple checkboxes, then presumably each checkbox has its own name attribute. You should then call .data(name, value) for each such name.

AFAIK there's no way to "collapse" these calls to data into a single call.

Answer 2

Maybe You can try something like the following ?

 HashMap<String,String> paramHM=new HashMap<String,String>();

 ArrayList<String> checkboxVal=new ArrayList<Strnig>();
 / .. put request.getParametersValues() in this arraylist

 org.jsoup.Connection jsoupConn=Jsoup.connect(web_api).data(paramHM);

 // Multiple Call that 
 for(String item:checkboxVal){
    jsoupConn=jsoupConn.data("checkbox",item);
 }
