I have a form in jsp:
<form id="emailForm" data-role="form">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="name" name="name" placeholder="Enter full name..">
<input type="submit" id="emailSubmit" name="emailSubmit" class="btn btn-default" value="submit">
</form>
I send the form to controller using AJAX:
$("#emailSubmit").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault(); //STOP default action
var postData = $("#emailForm").serializeArray();
$.ajax(
{
type: "POST",
url : "HomeController",
data : postData,
success: function(data)
{
$("#emailResult").html("<p>Thank your for submitting</p>);
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown)
{
$("#emailResult").html("<p>ss"+errorThrown+textStatus+jqXHR+"</p>");
}
});
});
I check if it has been submitted in Controller here:
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
String emailSubmit = request.getParameter("emailSubmit");
if(emailSubmit != null){
// continue
}}
Can someone please tell me why when it checks if form was submitted in the controller that it is null
?
For forms the standard way is to catch the submit
event instead of the click
event of the button:
$("#emailForm").submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var postData = $(this).serializeArray(); // or: $(this).serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url : "HomeController",
data : postData,
success: function(data)
{
$("#emailResult").html("<p>Thank your for submitting</p>);
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown)
{
$("#emailResult").html("<p>ss"+errorThrown+textStatus+jqXHR+"</p>");
}
});
});
I have tried several methods to be able to check the submit button isn't null and can't solve that issue. For now I have set a hidden input field in the form like so:
<input type="hidden" name="form" value="contactForm">
In controller I check for the form:
String form = request.getParameter("form");
if(form.equals("contactForm")){
// continue
}
Doing this enables me to know which form has been posted to the controller.
