Input type="hidden" value="....a chain of rubbish letter......"!!

I use the browser view source function to see the html generated by jsf, and always see something like the following:

Why are you always so negative in your questions/postings? In every post you're just complaining and throwing around with too much exclamation marks. It's getting annoying. You risk to become placed in the ignore list.
Anyway, you have configured JSF to use client side state saving. This isn't a default setting.

Upload file input type="hidden" to server

I have a file that is on a user machine. The file is always in the same location. I want to have the user click on an upload button without selecting a file and have it sent to the server for processing. I have tried to use <input type="hidden" name="fileupload" value="c:\filepath">. When I run it this way I get no file found. Please help!

I am sorry, I will move it. Didn't notice it was in Acrobat, I was wanting Coldfusion.
Edit: Since I am unaware of how to move it I'm just going to mark it as answered.

thanks..I've used a netui:anchor tag with a nested netui:parameter tag thatpassed
the
"hidden" field to an action in the pageflow. In the pageflow, use the
getRequest
method as below...
IN JSP:
<netui:anchor action="toNextInCatalog"><%=category.getName()%>
<netui:parameter name="categoryName" value="<%=category.getName()%>"></netui:parameter>
</netui:anchor>
IN PAGEFLOW:
String catName = this.getRequest().getParameter("categoryName");
hope this helps,

There is a <netui:hidden> tag which is intended to have an equivalent to the HTML
hidden fields. However I couldn't achioeve to set a defaultValue ([dataInput="dataInput"].

Why do I have this HTML coding in all my posts on web forums nput id="mac_address" type="hidden" value="" /

What led to this activity and how do I stop it from occurring?
nput id="mac_address" type="hidden" value="" /

It might be an add-on that is misbehaving. You can try disabling add-ons individually to see which one is responsible. You can also reset Firefox, while keeping your personalized data, like history, bookmarks, passwords, etc: [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]

Pass hidden values to same page by clicking on href

I have A.jsp page which has some dynamic hidden fields.The respective code is given below:
<script language="javascript">
function submitForm()
{document.main.action="main.jsp"; document.main.submit(); }
</script>
<form name="main">
HOME
<input type="hidden" name="user_p" value="<%=user1%>"/>
<input type="hidden" name="p" value="Hello"/>
</form>
When I click on link-HOME, it reconnect to A.jsp but does not pass the hiddden values. Could you help me?

It did not work.Now after modifying the code for this (I did this because some browser does not support two functions ,like in href. By thinking that it could be the problem)
<script language="javascript">
function submitForm()
document.main.action="main.jsp"; document.main.submit(); }
</script>
<form name="main" method="POST">
HOME
<input type="hidden" name="user_p" value="<%=user1%>"/>
<input type="hidden" name="p" value="Hello"/>
</form>
Could you explain with working code?

Using a form with two input type="submit" ... buttons...

Hello All!
I'm using a form to add and remove parameters for a service definition.
<form action="serviceinput.jsp" method="post">
               <table>
                    <tr>
                         <td><b>Level</b></td>
                         <td><b>Fieldname</b></td>
                         <td><b>Stucturename</b></td>
                         <td><b>Type</b></td>
                         <td><b>Format</b></td>
                         <td><b>Optional</b></td>
                         <td><b>Semantics</b></td>
                    </tr>
     <%
                    for (Iterator iterParameters = parameters.iterator(); iterParameters.hasNext();)
          Parameter parameter = (Parameter) iterParameters.next();
     %>
                    <tr>
          <td><%= parameter.getLevel() %></td>
          <td><%= parameter.getFieldname() %></td>
          <td><%= parameter.getStructurename() %></td>
          <td><%= parameter.getType() %></td>
          <td><%= parameter.getFormat() %></td>
          <td><%= parameter.getOptional() %></td>
          <td><%= parameter.getSemantics() %></td>
                    </tr>
     <%
     %>
               </table>
               <input type="submit" name="<%= parameters.addParameter() %>" value="add"/>
               <input type="submit" name="<%= parameters.removeParameter() %>" value="remove"/>
          </form>
The special thing about is, that I'm using two <input type="submit"...> buttons.
The idea is, that I'd like to add one more row with attributes by clicking the "add" button and removing one row by clicking the "remove" button.
If I use just one of them, it works fine. If I use both of them, nothing happens at all.
Isn't it allowed to use two <input type="submit"...> fields?
Is there an alternative? How can I implement my form the correct way?
Thanks a lot in advance to all!
Regards,
Tomi

Hi,
Hai Tomi ,
As swati already Explained U can try it with buttons,
But u have to make a Hidden field and set the value of the hidden field
with the Javascript code after pressing the button , Call a client side function which has an argument as given below
Validate the Flag field in the JSP file
<script language=javascript>
function Validate(s)
if(s==1)
     document.forms['ServiceInput'].elements["flag"].value="add";
else
     document.forms['ServiceInput'].elements["flag"].value="Remove";
document.forms['ServiceInput'].submit();
alert("hai");
</script>
<form name="ServiceInput" action="serviceinput.jsp" method="POst">
<table>
<tr>
<td><b>Level</b></td>
<td><b>Fieldname</b></td>
<td><b>Stucturename</b></td>
<td><b>Type</b></td>
<td><b>Format</b></td>
<td><b>Optional</b></td>
<td><b>Semantics</b></td>
</tr>
<%
for (Iterator iterParameters = parameters.iterator(); iterParameters.hasNext();)
Parameter parameter = (Parameter) iterParameters.next();
%>
<tr>
<td><%= parameter.getLevel() %></td>
<td><%= parameter.getFieldname() %></td>
<td><%= parameter.getStructurename() %></td>
<td><%= parameter.getType() %></td>
<td><%= parameter.getFormat() %></td>
<td><%= parameter.getOptional() %></td>
<td><%= parameter.getSemantics() %></td>
</tr>
<%
%>
</table>
<input type=hidden name=flag value="bb">
<input type="Button" name="b1" value="add" onclick= "Validate(1)">
<input type="Button" name="b2" value="remove" onclick= "Validate(2)">
</form>

Building hashtable for INPUT types dynamically

In my jsp I want to define a method which can build and return a hashtable of all the input types defined inside a form. For example if my form looks like :
<form name="detail_form" method="post" action="">
<input type="text" name="asset_name" size="15" value="ABC">
<input type="text" name="asset_desc" size="45" value="Laptop">
<input type="hidden" name="employee_id_key" value="58975">
<input type="hidden" name="asset_id_key" value="15">
</form>
then my method will be like :
<%!
public Map getCurrentData()
Map paras=new HashMap();
paras.put ("asset_name", "ABC");
paras.put ("asset_desc", "Laptop");
paras.put ("employee_id_key", "58975");
paras.put ("asset_id_key", "15");
return paras;
%>
Now the problem is :
since the code inside the form can be dynamic (like there can be different number of INPUT types with different names) so I want my method getCurrentData() to be dynamic. That probably means some sort of loop to go through all the INPUT types in the form and storing it in hashtable. But I dont know how to do it in java. Can anybody help me please. Thanks

I am not exactly sure what you mean by "input types" but you could use the request.getParameterMap() method after the form is submitted. So for example you would have your form like <form ... action="nextpage.jsp"> and on nextpage.jsp you could call request.getParameterMap() to create a map of all the paramaters and their values. Here is what I mean...
<form name="detail_form" method="post" action="nextpage.jsp">
<input type="text" name="asset_name" size="15" value="ABC">
<input type="text" name="asset_desc" size="45" value="Laptop">
<input type="hidden" name="employee_id_key" value="58975">
<input type="hidden" name="asset_id_key" value="15">
</form>
then on nexpage.jsp you could say
<% Map myMap = request.getParamaterMap(); %>
Good Luck

Getting hidden value with javascript problem

<html>
<body>
<form>
<input type="hidden" id="code" value="123">
</form>
</html>
when open the html file and type "javascript:alert(document.getElementById("code").value)" in the address bar, I get a message box with "123".
but when i do in the jsp with
<input type="hidden" id="code" value="<%=request.getParameter("code")%>">
and type the javascript in the address bar, i get "object not supported".
Can anyone tell me how to get hidden value in jsp with javascript?
thank you.

There is no difference between a JSP or plain html, since javascript executes on the client side after the JSP is done processing. There is obviously something wrong with the HTML content after you input the request value, so check the generated HTML in your browser to see if there are any unwanted quotes in there or something.

How to pass hidden values

There is a row which has 2 fields
<td >�Ticket No</td> <td >�Bill No</td>
<td ><input type="text" name="<%= ticketNo+ %>" value="" size=10></td>
<td ><INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="<%=billNo+"%> value="" size=10></td>
I want to pass the values entered in the row along with one hidden value called as rowId. The rowId is attached to the ticketNo and billNo values.
How to do this???.........Plz Help
Any idea , if there are many rows?

Here is a basic servlet that reads three parameters from a form. One of the is hidden. You can see that its no different from reading non hidden form fields.

How to get full path using HTP.PRINT(' "input type ="file") ....

Hello everybody,
I am working on uploading file from page to another one using HTP package, but whenever I submit the form, it only takes the filename without the full path.
for example :
if i sent 'c:\dir\a.txt' , the other page receives file parameter as 'a.txt'
the code is here
PROCEDURE upload(appno in varchar2,wsct in varchar2) AS
l_real_name VARCHAR2(1000);
BEGIN
HTP.htmlopen;
HTP.headopen;
HTP.title('Test Upload');
HTP.headclose;
HTP.bodyopen;
HTP.header(1, 'Test Upload');
HTP.print('<form action="https://ssltrng.uaeu.ac.ae/trng/document_api.upload1" method="get">');
HTP.print(' File to upload: <input type="file" name="file" >
HTP.print(' <input type="submit" value="Upload">');
HTP.print('</form>');
HTP.bodyclose;
HTP.htmlclose;
END upload;
the other page see it as
file is 'Water lilies.jpg'
Thanks

Do not understand the problem.
The code you've posted is a PL/SQL web enabled procedure that produces a dynamic HTML page. This page contains a form. And a full URL reference to the CGI that will process the form's data.
This is unusual - as it seems to be that the form is submitted across domains and web servers.. You usually refer to a local CGI procedure to deal with a form - no need for a fully qualified URL that includes web server and domain name.
If the CGI procedure that receives the form is also a PL/SQL web enabled procedure, that the uploaded file will be placed in the documents table (as defined in the DAD alias) by mod_plsql, prior to the web enabled procedure being called. The documents table will contain the Mime type, file name, file contents and other details.

html:link action="" input type="button"... does not work under IE browser

Greeting,
I have the following codes in struts1.3.5. It works fine under Firefox, but it does not work at all under Internet Explore (IT) at all. Any clues why under IE it does not work?
<html:link action="/private/search">
<input
type="button"
value="Search"
class="search-button">
</html:link>
Thanks a lot!

This would probably generate a HTML in which there will be a button inside anchor tag.
This is not a standard HTML feature and no wonder this is not supported by IE. I copied the generated html codes into test.html to try on IE, the button does not work at all.
Firefox is probably lenient here. True. test.html works in Firefox.
You might want to just have a link or do a form submission on button click.The action designed does not need an actionForm. I updated my code to :<html:button onclick="location.href='processSearch'"
property ="Search"
value ="Search">
</html:button>
And now both Firefox & IE works fine.
Thanks a lot!

Adding input type to my mail page and PHP attached to it question

I need to add a few more input boxes in my form but every time I do it, I still only get what's on the code under this what I'm writing now.
This is the code in my mail page itself:
        <form action="mail.php" method="POST">
          <p><b>Name</b><br>
            <input type="text" name="subject" size=40>
          <p><b>Please fill out your email/address/phone number</b><br>
              <textarea cols=40 rows=10 name="message"></textarea>
          <p><input type="submit" value=" Send ">
        </form>
This is the code in my php page it's attached to.
<html>
<head><title>Support a Hero</title></head>
<body>
<?php
$email = '[email protected]';
$subject = $HTTP_POST_VARS['subject'];
$message = $HTTP_POST_VARS['message'];
if (!preg_match("/\w+([-+.]\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*/", $email)) {
echo "<h4>Invalid email address</h4>";
echo "<a href='javascript:history.back(1);'>Back</a>";
} elseif ($subject == "") {
echo "<h4>No subject</h4>";
echo "<a href='javascript:history.back(1);'>Back</a>";
elseif (mail($email,$subject,$message)) {
echo "<h4>Thank you for sending email</h4>";
} else {
echo "<h4>Can't send email to $email</h4>";
?>
</body>
</html>

anybody know? I can't seem to add extra post_vars to communicate with my PHP script. What am I doing wrong? It looks like it should work. I get the email to my email but I'm only getting the name in my email subject and then the message. The other boxes that are filled out don't come to my email. I would like to see where the email comes besides "secure server". Is that possible? Here's the script.
This is in my HTML:
<body>
        <form action="mail.php" method="POST">
          <p><b>Name</b><br>
            <input type="text" name="subject" size=40>
            <p><b>Name</b><br>
            <input type="text" name="name" size=40>
            <p><b>Name</b><br>
            <input type="text" name="email" size=40>
            <p><b>Name</b><br>
            <input type="text" name="phone" size=40>
<p><b>Please fill out your email/address/phone number</b><br>
              <textarea cols=40 rows=10 name="message"></textarea>
          <p><input type="submit" value=" Send ">
    </form></td>
</tr>
</table>
Here is my PHP that it's attached to.
<html>
<head><title>Support a Hero</title></head>
<body>
<?php
$email = '[email protected]';
$name = $HTTP_POST_VARS['name'];
$your email = $HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
$phone = $HTTP_POST_VARS['phone'];
$message = $HTTP_POST_VARS['message'];
if (!preg_match("/\w+([-+.]\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+([-.]\w+)*/", $email)) {
echo "<h4>Invalid email address</h4>";
echo "<a href='javascript:history.back(1);'>Back</a>";
} elseif ($subject == "") {
echo "<h4>No subject</h4>";
echo "<a href='javascript:history.back(1);'>Back</a>";
elseif (mail($email,$subject,$message)) {
echo "<h4>Thank you for sending email</h4>";
} else {
echo "<h4>Can't send email to $email</h4>";
?>
</body>
</html>
