Passing paramter from javascript to jsp

Jul 8th, 2005

Hi ,

I have a function as :
function doCheck(str1,str2)
{
top.LocalCacheLoadStatus = false;
parent.SearchFrame.location.href=str1;
g_str_Mode = str2;
alert (g_str_Mode);
}

This has str1 as the name of the jsp file and str2 is the value which i have to pass to the jsp file given in str1.How do i do that ?

Thanks & Regards
Soni

Try this:

 Help with Code Tags 
 JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
function doCheck(str1,str2) { 
  top.LocalCacheLoadStatus = false;
  parent.SearchFrame.location.href=str1;
  g_str_Mode = str2;
  alert (g_str_Mode);
  var url = str1+".jsp?str2="+str2;
  alert(url);
  document.location = url;
 }
function doCheck(str1,str2) { 
  top.LocalCacheLoadStatus = false;
  parent.SearchFrame.location.href=str1;
  g_str_Mode = str2;
  alert (g_str_Mode);
  var url = str1+".jsp?str2="+str2;
  alert(url);
  document.location = url;
 }

If you need to pass the variable to the jsp page, and you don't need your user to ever see the output from that jsp page--that is, you want the user to stay on the current page without noticing the value was submitted, you can use a hidden iframe--and navigate it instead of your main page. You can also use an AJAX solution, but an iframe does just fine and is easier to make compatible across browsers.
