It is assumed that one submit button will function for a form..if you want more that one submit form try to build as many forms as u need and put the submit inside that
that will cure your problem
and y do you want to create so many submit buttons.. instead you can make use of select button

Multiple Submit buttons in Adobe form !

Hello Experts,
Scenario :
Form has Material number as input field and Material description should get automatically populated( maybe as a script or button , dont know yet ). Then the form is to be submitted at the backend.
I have created an Adobe interactive form with Multiple Submit buttons( one is Submit toSAP) button , other is a normal pushbutton( for Material desc to be populated ) . I have been able to Submit data at backend.
But problem is there is only one event on the Interactive form UI element properties.
Please suggest how to achieve the above ? via script or sm code in web dynpro ?
System Config : WAS 6.4 / SP12 .
Need a quick resolution. Generous points for help.
Regards,
Sonika

Hi Sonika,
control_param structure is used in case of ISR forms, but I dont think your form is related to the ISR.
Use a context attribute, and set its value to get the Material description from backend.
Like you can define an attribute in context, "GETDESCRIPTION", and set its value at the exit event of Inputfield to "GET".
$.parent.GETDESCRIPTION.rawvalue = "GET"
app.eval("event.target.SAPSubmit();");
And at the click event of the button you can write:
$.parent.GETDESCRIPTION.rawvalue = "SET"
app.eval("event.target.SAPSubmit();");
And in the backend, read the value of this attribute and perform the desired action.
Hope this helps,
Amit

How to distribute a form with multiple submit buttons?

I have a form that has multiple submit buttons depending on the information that is being entered and then who the information should go to. When I try to disbribute the form, I get an error message stating the following, "Acrobat is unable to distribute this form because it contains multiple submit buttons with different formats or return URLs." Is anyone able to let me know how I can distribute the form?

Sounds as if you need your own web script to process submissions - written by an experienced web programmer (I very strongly recommend someone familiar with all the latest security weaknesses, and not a project for anyone else). Your needs are (it seems to me) too complex for Adobe's automatic system.

How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
Eric Steven Raymond
Rick Moen
Write in clear, grammatical, correctly-spelled language
We've found by experience that people who are careless and sloppy writers are usually also careless and sloppy at thinking and coding (often enough to bet on, anyway). Answering questions for careless and sloppy thinkers is not rewarding; we'd rather spend our time elsewhere.
So expressing your question clearly and well is important. If you can't be bothered to do that, we can't be bothered to pay attention. Spend the extra effort to polish your language. It doesn't have to be stiff or formal ? in fact, hacker culture values informal, slangy and humorous language used with precision. But it has to be precise; there has to be some indication that you're thinking and paying attention.
Spell, punctuate, and capitalize correctly. Don't confuse "its" with "it's", "loose" with "lose", or "discrete" with "discreet". Don't TYPE IN ALL CAPS; this is read as shouting and considered rude. (All-smalls is only slightly less annoying, as it's difficult to read. Alan Cox can get away with it, but you can't.)
More generally, if you write like a semi-literate b o o b you will very likely be ignored. So don't use instant-messaging shortcuts. Spelling "you" as "u" makes you look like a semi-literate b o o b to save two entire keystrokes.

PRocessing Multiple "Submit" buttons

I want my JPS to have multiple submit buttons, one for Contineu and one for Cancel. It appears to me that the only way to detect which was clicked in the servlet is pretty inelegantly, something like this:
if(request.getParameter("continue") != null)
// do continue stuff
else
    if(request.getParameter("cancel") != null)
// do cancel stuffIs this correct? Is there a less cumbersome way? Thanks.

I will suggest that you write two servlets one to do cancel action and the other to do continue action and through JS call the servlet of cancel or continue.
that makes your work easier.
Like this
<Script language="JavaScript">
function fn_Perform_Action(chr_User_Action)
               //-- 2.1) -- ADD a record to database
               if (chr_User_Action == "Save")
                         var bln_Ret_Val = fn_Check_Mandatory_Fields();                                                       if (bln_Ret_Val)
                                   document.frm_name.action = "/path";
                                   document.frm_name.submit();
                                   return true;
               //--2.3) -- Back to the Menu
               if (chr_User_Action == "Back")
                                   document.frm_name.action = "/path";
                                   document.frm_name.submit();
                                   return true;
                    return false;
</script>
<Input Type="Button" Value=" Update " id="id_btn_Save" Name="btn_Save" OnClick="return fn_Perform_Action('Save');">

Using submit button in jsp to set a boolean value

Hello,
any help would be much appreciated.
I have put the following submit button in jsp:
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=CENTER><INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" NAME="next" VALUE="Next"></TD>
</TR>
I have then put the following java code in:
<%
boolean next = (request.getParameter("next") != null);
session.setAttribute("next", next);
boolean previous = (request.getParameter("previous") != null);
session.setAttribute("previous", previous);
int row = 1;
session.setAttribute("row", row);
%>
now I expected when user hit next button and jsp was forwarded to another jsp that when I did the following:
//get session attributes for next/previous action from previous jsp
boolean next = (Boolean) session.getAttribute("next");
boolean previous = (Boolean) session.getAttribute("previous");
int row = (Integer) session.getAttribute("row");
that the boolean next would be set to true, but it is set to false and I do not understand why?
Can somebody help please?
Cheers Joe.

One reason i see you are getting false is that the default value for a boolean type is false and your code doesn't set it to true . So whatever be the page Next or previous , It would be set to false.. Try doing something like
boolean next=true;
next=request.getParameter("next");
if(next.equals(""))
// Your Business Logic goes here.
Hope this helps.

Regarding multiple submit buttons in a page!!

hi all,
If i have two submit buttons in a html page then i can put them in two separate forms ,one form with get method and another with post method and pass the information to the servlet and then retrieve the values using doGet and doPost methods. How can i retrieve the information in the servlet if i have multiple submit buttons in my html page?
pls help me.......

is your question how do i know what button was pressed?
in html
<INPUT name="type" value="a" type="submit">
<INPUT name="type" value="b" type="submit">
<INPUT name="type" value="c" type="submit">
<INPUT name="type" value="d" type="submit">in servlet
String type = request.getParameter("type");
// type = a | b | c | d

Multiple submit buttons in a jsp form?

I've been doing some research and found out that multiple buttons in a JSP form are possible by two ways:
- We can obtain the value of the submit button to know which one was clicked in the parameters of the request using the name of the buttons (which should be the same for all the submit buttons).
- We can change the submit destination using Javascript (Horrible solution since I want my web site to be safe to be used even if Javascript isn't active in clients browsers. I will use it of course since we can do amazing things with it but I want my website to be able to work without it also)
WHAT annoys me is the fact that the value of a submit button is also his text, so if I change the text of the submit button, I will always have to check the servlet to do the corresponding change.
Is there a third choice to be able to use multiple buttons?
Olivier Voutat

It seem rather convoluted at first but it's really good. I've not worked with JSF so I've no idea how that compares but from what I know, Craig McClanahan, who came up with Struts, worked on JSF also, so I guess it could only improve on Struts.
EDIT: Here's a search result on Google'ing his name: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=29068
But like I said, you don't have to use Struts ( which only uses standard JSP/ Servlets stuff anyway ), you simply use one of the ideas from it.
For example; you have a properties file, say "/WEB-INF/properties/myProps.properties" with these entries:
#USERS MODULE
users.button.save=Save User
users.button.search=Search User By Name
users.button.delete=Delete UserThis would be a key: users.button.save to the value Save User
Now, in your JSP, you use JSTL <fmt> tags:
<fmt:setBundle basename="properties.myProps"/>
//set the resource bundle you want to use
//and create buttons with the proper values
<input name="myButton" type="submit"><fmt:message key="users.button.save"/></input>
<input name="myButton" type="submit"><fmt:message key="users.button.search"/></input>This would create buttons with text "Save User" and "Search User By Name" respectively
Now, finally, in your servlet:
//create a map of the properties,
//possibly on app startup using a ServletContextListener
//and put it in the servlet context for access everywhere
HashMap myProps = (HashMap)getServletContext.getAttribute("myPropertiesMap");
String buttonClicked = request.getParameter("myButton");
if ( buttonClicked.equals((String)myProps.get("users.button.save")) )
//perform save action
else if ( buttonClicked.equals((String)myProps.get("users.button.search")) )
//perform search action
//etcYou'll obviously want to optimize this. Perhaps make a method that handles the comparison so you can have neater if conditions. But you get the idea, right?

Can I have multiple submit buttons on the same form?

Hi!
I'm creating a web page that allows the user to build a mail filter, and I would like to have to submit buttons, one to add more fields to the filter and another one to save the filter... I could insert the two buttons on the, but I don't know how to distinguish them while doing the process of the form on a jsp page. Any ideas?

You can create additional submit buttons using Javascript buttons:
<input type='button' value='Add Fields'
onClick='this.form.action="/servlet/AddFields";this.form.submit()' />
<input type='button' value='Save Filter'
onClick='this.form.action="/servlet/SaveFilter";this.form.submit()' />
The value of "onClick" is a block of Javascript, so you can all a function to validate the form before submitting, etc.

Multiple Submit buttons on one form

I'm developing an application that will have 4 buttons at the bottom of the form to do various things with the form information. One of the buttons will link to a separate web page for confirmation of the action. I tried to set a global variable and place an onclick event for the button which assigns a specific value for that variable. I then placed a <jsp:forward tag in my code that would be included if the global variable was the specific value which the button changes it to. I"m not sure if I'm being clear here. There is the forms page with the 4 buttons. It possesses all of this code. So the global variable is declared at the top. The variable is set if the 'Delete' button is clicked. And further down there is an if statement used to include the <jsp:forward tag when the 'Delete button has been pressed and this form is again being drawn up.
What I describe doesn't work. The global variable I guess is reset when this form is drawn up a second time after the 'Delete' submit button is pressed. I''m not married to the way that I'm solving this problem at this point so I'll take any suggestions. But basically I want the Web Forms fields to be sent to this delete jsp so that I can confirm the command to delete the indicated record from the database. The three other buttons on this form are 'Add/Update', 'Rename', and 'Cancel'. The Add/Update and Rename buttons should also be submit buttons but they should link back to the same page as they are located on. The cancel button is to return the user to the index page. I have this working using a document.location.href command in the onclick event for that button.

Hi Brain. If I'm following your thoughts, you may want to consider replacing the four sumbit buttons with four radio control buttons and one submit button.
I would suggest that you set your form action via a radio control button then, thru the form action, pass the form to a Servlet or JSP that contains some logic.
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 3.2 final//en">
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>

<form action='ServletOrJSPNameHere' method='post'>
<br> <input type='radio' name='formAction' value='Delete'>Delete
<br> <input type='radio' name='formAction' value='Add/Update'>Add/Update
<br> <input type='radio' name='formAction' value='Rename'>Rename
<br> <input type='radio' name='formAction' value='Cancel'>Cancel
<br> <input type='submit' value='submit'>
<form>
</body>
</html>
// this code would go into your Servlet, JSP, or worker class
String formAction = request.getParamger("formAction");
// test for null value
if ( formAction == null ) {
     // reload the page with a message to pick a radio button
else if ( formAction.equals("Delete") {
   doTheDeleteProcessing();
else if ( formAction.equals("Add/Update") {
   doTheAdd/UpdateProcessing();
else if ( formAction.equals("Rename") {
   doTheRenameProcessing();
else {
   doTheCancelProcessing();
}I hope this helps.

Multiple submit buttons in flash form

I need to make this page so that when the submit button is
pressed, the action page will be based on the cfforgroup, not on an
overall form action. Essentially I have 2 main tabs and multiple
tabs underneath each one of those that need seperate action calls
on submit:

Multiple command buttons in jsp

Hi
I need a multiple commands buttons (for example 3) in a web page; then I need to call a bean method or another jsp page for every button

Multiple submit button on a single form

hi all,
My current system have 1 submit button with single form. This submit button will call file_content.upload.
htp.p('function on_submit() {');
htp.p('     ...the rest of my code here..');
htp.p('     document.forms[0].submit();');
htp.p('     return true;');
htp.p('}');
htp.p('<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="file_content.upload">');
htp.p('     ...the rest of my code here..');
htp.p('<input type="button" id="btn_Submit" value="Submit" onclick="on_submit()"></form>');
My question is, i want to enhance this by adding additional 1 submit button with value "Save". But this new "Save" button will call/trigger different file. This new button will call file_content.update. How to accomplish this and how to differentiate these 2 button?
htp.p('<input type="button" id="btn_Submit" value="Submit" onclick="on_submit()">
<input type="button" id="btn_Save" value="Save"></form>');
Appreciate any help from you guys. Thanks

Using JavaScript to submit a form with multiple submit buttons

I am a newbie to JavaScript, so hopefully someone can answer
this for me.
On my user registration form, I have two buttons that submit
the form, 'check_availability' (to check if the username is
available) and 'register'. In my PHP script, I check which button
was pushed by checking which POST value is set,
$_POST['check_availability'] or $_POST['register'].
If I set the 'register' button to a JavaScript function that
validates the form and then submits it, how do I get my PHP script
to think 'register' was pushed?

Sorry I used my old captcha script there.
[php]
<?
session_start();
if(isset($_POST['button_name'])){
//DO SOMETHING HERE
} else {
//Add the page data
?>
[/php]
