Is it possible to call a method in a servlet from a java script ?

I need to do a dynamic html page . In the page i select some things and then these things must communicate whit a servlet because the servlet will do some DB querys and update the same webpage.
So is it possible to actually call a method of a servlet from a java script? i want to do something that looks like this page:
http://www.hebdo.net/v5/search/search.asp?rubno=4000&cregion=1011&sid=69DHOTQ30307151
So when u select something in the first list the secodn list automaticly updates.
thank you very much

You can
1. load all the options when loading the page and
set second selection options when user selected
the first; or
2. reload the page when user select first selection
by 'onChange' event; or
3. using iframe so you only need to reload part of
the page.

How to call a method in the servlet from an applet

I want to get the data for the applet from the servlet.
How to call a method that exits in the servlet from the applet? I want to use http protocol to do this.
Any suggestions? Please help.
thanks

Now that Web Services is around, I'd look at possibly implement a Web Service call in your applet, which can then be given back any object(s) on return. Set up your server side to handle Web Service calls. In this way, you can break the applet out into an application should you want to (with very little work) and it will still function the same

Calling a method in BPM Object from jsf page

Hi All,
How do I call a method in BPM object from JSF page? Is it possible to invoke it in a manner similar to invoking a method from managed bean in JSF application?
Please help.
Thanks and Regards,
Veronica

You can use f:invoke (or f:invokea to with parameters)
For ajax calls, you can use f:invokeUrl to get the URL to a particular method within your BPM object, although make sure the Server-Side Method property is set to Yes.

Call a method in the view from Component Controller

Hi Friends,
I have written the code for calling the RFC in Component Controller.
My requirement is to change the properties of UI elements in the view, if I get any exception while calling RFC.
Can Call a method in the view from Component Controller.

HI,
You can get the error message during the exception of calling RFC in view itself.
Any way you may call the RFC at some action in the view only.
Can you explain me what you are trying to do?

Need call a method of one iview from another iview

Hi,
There are 2 iviews in a component.
1) FirstView - contains abc() method & xyz() methods
2) SecondView (a popup) - asdf() method
i want to call abc() method from asdf() method. i.e. i want to call a method of the firstview from the secondview.
Note:
1) i couldn't able to copy the code of abc() method to component controller, as it has the code which uses (iview) local attributes (this can be done by context mapping) & main reason is from the method it calls the xyz() method of the same view (again i couldn't call a method of iview from component controller).
2) firstView contain 5 tabs, i want to be in the same tab from which secondview (popup) was called, if i use fire plugs between both view, the current tab will be chnaged (i suppose, not sure).
3) can we use event handlers, if yes how can we do that.
Please provide a better solution for calling a method of view from another view.
Thanks
Maha
Edited by: Maha Hussain on Jan 13, 2009 12:40 PM

Hi Maha,
It is better to have such methods in the component controller to make it reusable and avoid writing same code again and again.
You can have that method in component controller and call that method on click on a button from Iview1 and can pass the parameters in the mthgod only.
for example.
Say Method abc() which is currently in Iview1 and you are passing values from context say aa bb cc to the method now what i am suggesting is
have that method abc(String aa, String bb, String cc) ;
and call it on click on button in Iview1 and pass the required parameters.
Hope this will help

You have to establish a URLConnection with servlet from your java program.
URL servletURL = new URL("http://localhost:8080/Myservlet?str1=abc&str2=def");
URLConnection servletConnection = servletURL.openConnection();you can get the objectOutputStream
ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream (servletConnection.getOutputStream());
oos.writeObject(your file object);-------------------------------------------------
In the servlet u can get the strings using request.getParameter("str1");
In the servlet u can get the strings using request.getParameter("str2");
file = new ObjectInputStream (request.getInputStream()).readObject()a lot of resources are available on this ...
hope this helps :)

Calling Servlet from a java prog?

Hi all,
I am calling servlet from a java prog (Java Agent in Lotus Notes) by using URL and URLConnection object. how can i trigger the Servlet By using doPost method .I have to send some parameter also.
Thanx
Muthu

you need to open a connection to the servlet. Then you must call getInputStream() and getOutputStream() and use them in any way you see fit. I was trying this before and could not get POST to work unless I openned the input stream from the servlet. Strange... but doGet worked without openning the input stream???
// open a connection....
// write to the servlet
servletConnection.getOutputStream().write("whatever");
servletConnection.getOutputStream().flush();
servletConnection.getOutputStream().close();
// grab what the servlet sends back, required to do a post.
byte [] in = new byte[100];
servletConnection.getInputStream().read(in);
servletConnection.getInputStream().close();

You absolutely _do_ have the capability to pass in a
reference to the parent
component, or to create a "hard" reference to
Application.application. But
these are not recommended practices, because anything you
create this way is
then tied to an environment that implements those properties
and methods.
Q (3): I want to run a function in my main application from
inside my
custom component. But when I try to refer to myFunction() in
that
component, I get a compile time error Call to a possibly
undefined function
myFunction. How can I fix this?
A: Your component has its own scope, so it doesn't know
anything
about the functions in the main file. You can get around this
by directly
referencing the main application scope like this:
Application.application.myFunction(). However, this makes
your component
tightly coupled, which is a quick way of saying that your
component is only
usable in an application that has a myFunction() function in
it. You're
better off dispatching an event from your component and
letting the
application decide how to handle it. For more information,
check out the

How to call a specific method in a servlet from another servlet

Hi peeps, this post is kinda linked to my other thread but more direct !!
I need to call a method from another servlet and retrieve info/objects from that method and manipulate them in the originating servlet .... how can I do it ?
Assume the originating servlet is called Control and the servlet/method I want to access is DAO/login.
I can create an object of the DAO class, say newDAO, and access the login method by newDAO.login(username, password). Then how do I get the returned info from the DAO ??
Can I use the RequestDispatcher to INCLUDE the call to the DAO class method "login" ???
Cheers
Kevin

Thanks for the reply.
So if I have a method in my DAO class called login() and I want to call it from my control servlet, what would the syntax be ?
getrequestdispatcher.include(newDAO.login())
where newDAO is an instance of the class DAO, would that be correct ?? I'd simply pass the request object as a parameter in the login method and to retrieve the results of login() the requestdispatcher.include method will return whatever I set as an attribute to the request object, do I have that right ?!!!!
