Two form actions

hello again. i did a search and found a thread where someone
else asked if it was possible to have two form actions, but the
person who responded didn't say it was impossible, just that they
didn't need to.
i think i need to have two actions, unless someone can tell
me how to tell my formmail to also send the results to an ASP form
processor on a different website.
basically, my company started using a web-based lead
management program, and they want the results to go there as well
as the emails we get now. the website uses ASP to process the form,
and they provide the url you need to post to, plus hidden fields
you have to put in the form that tell it which account to post to.
it seems like the easiest solution would be to have two
actions on the form, but so far that doesn't appear to be possible,
and i'm just wondering if anyone has done it before and can tell me
how it's done.
thanks!

Would it be out of consideration to hire someone to do this
for you?
If not, then you would have to modify the formmail script to
POST the form's
data, including the additional values required, to the data
processing
script. On reflection, I'm not quite sure what would be the
best way to do
that - perhaps use the incoming POSTed data to populate form
fields and then
submit the populated form onload.

How to get HttpServletRequest parameters from two forms in a JSP

I have this JSP with two forms calling the same servlet. Problem is, when I use a submit button in the second form, I am unable to retrieve the request parameters from the form through the servlet. I am wondering if anybody could give me some info on how to get the request parameters from the second form. I tried to see all the parameter names in the request by calling request.getParameterNames(). But the parameters in the second form are not even seen in the request although I am clicking the submit button in this form!

First, two forms works fine in one jsp so no need to argue about that.
Second, did you put the form actions and type ("multipart/formdata " ?) explicit in every form header ? Did you supply different form names ?
Try to call the submit function through javascript - document.forms[0].submit() for your first, and document.forms[1].submit() for your second form...
Did you forget to close the form tag by chance ?

How can I share data between two forms on different lists

Using a custom content type, I created two lists that I want to share the same data - one is a calendar. Our employees complete a form from the "Out of Office Request" list that has workflow functionality that sends an email to that person's
manager. If the manager approves the request, the item automatically populates the "Out of Office Calendar." The problem is that the only information from the request list that populates the calendar is the Title field and date/time fields.
I need the manager name in order to create a view for each manager.
How can I connect the other information in the request list to the calendar list. It seems to me that if the title and date fields carry over the information, there should be a way to connect the other information. I'm using Designer.
I've tried to connect the two lists' webparts with the wizard, but when I get to the page that maps the two lists, there are no column names and the "Next >" button is grayed out. This seems like the logical place to connect the two lists,
but it isn't working.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted share data between two forms on different lists.
To show external information on the calendar event, there are two methods: Calculated column, workflow. You can refer to:
A Simple Guide to Show More Information on a Calendar Event
I recommend to use workflow to achieve what you want. But you need to create a people column to display the manager.
You can create a workflow associated to the "Out of Office Request" list, add action to Start Approve Process. If the manager approves the request, you can create a item in the calendar, and then update the people column and the title column.
Then the calendar will display the Title, date/time and the manager.
To create a view for each manager, you need to modify the Filter. You can use the people column is equal to the manager name or the Title contains the manager name.
Thank you for your understanding.

Problems with file uploading servlet, the form action doesnt capture url

Hi, i have one problem. I am working on a project , i have created a servlet that takes uploaded files and processses them and links them back to user to download. The servlet works perfectly from my computer, I am using apache-tomcat-6.0.16 and java 1.6 , I have two forms called encrypt.html and decrypt.html, I will post both of them, now the problem is when somebody access it on the internet while i am running apache, they get a connection was reset on a firefox browser and same stuff on Internet Explorer.
i have checked my server logs and saw nothing unusual there, So please if you can help me, it is my project.
I am pasting html file and error message that other users where getting remotely.

Hi, thank you for your replies, I found out few things about my servlet, and its portability
and i have few questions, although i marked this topic as answered i guess its ok to post
I am using javax.servlet.context.tempdir to store my files in that servletcontext temporary directory. But i dont know how to give hyperlink
of the modified files to the user for them to download the modified files.
What i am using to get the tempdir i will paste
File baseurl = (File)this.getServletContext().getAttribute("javax.servlet.context.tempdir");
System.out.println(baseurl);
baseurl = new File(baseurl.getAbsolutePath()+File.separator+"temp"+File.separator+"files");
baseurl.mkdirs();so i am storing my files in that temp/files folder and the servlet processes them and modifies them, then how to present them as
links to the user for download ?
and as the servlet is multithreaded by nature, if my servlet gets 2 different requests with same file names, i guess one of them will be overwritten
And i want to create unique directory for each request made to the servlet , so file names dont clash.
one another thing is that i want my servlet to be executed by my <form action> only, I dont want the user to simply type url and trigger the servlet
Reply A.S.A.P. please..
Thanks and regards,

How to submit two forms once in one jsp page?

hello all,
My jsp page includes two forms: one form's action is a File Upload servlet, which process file uploading; another is a general servlet to collect user inputs, such as user name, age, etc.
Because the file upload servlet is a legacy component, and it was used in many applications. we could not meger it into our business components.
the system requires the file upload and information collection are submitted once. so we have to submit two forms in one 'Submit' action, at the same time, the information collection servlet need get the information from file upload servlet, such as the uploaded file's url.
I have tried two methods, but all failed
1. Upload form has no a 'Submit' button, when user click the 'submit' button of the information collection form, we use a javascript to submit upload form first, then submit information collection form. Failed at: the second submit dose wait for upload finishing, then the second submit interrupt the upload
2. the javascript only submit upload form, and set HTML body's onUnload event to another javascript that submit information collection form. this time, the file upload sucess, and information collection form sucess at most time. But fail when user click the 'refresh' or 'back' or any navigator buttons of the browser. these action will trigger the page 'unload' event too, but the submit if invalid!
Please tell me how to.

chain the both requests!
- build one mutlitpart request and send it to a servlet that can handle that multipart request (think of using oreilly MultiPartParser).
- check the input (all requiered fields and files there)
- if yes store the user fields and create a socket connection from your servlet to the legacy file upload servlet and post the file this way.
- like this you have full control over the users input and can make sure the file and the fields are just save if all requiered elements are availble.

Struts : Validating two forms in a single page , on a single submit

In my JSP page, i have two forms, with modifiable feilds. I'm using submit button of the 2nd form to submit both forms (ie. <form action="someAction2.do" onsubmit="return firstForm.submit();"> )
Two forms have different actions which is specified in structs-config.xml. Validation(server-side) is done using validation.xml file.On success/failure, both these actions are mapped to the same (input) JSP page.
Problem is that, validation errors in second form only is displayed. This is because, as soon as 1st form returns validation errors, the second form gets submitted. How can i specify that 2nd form should be submitted only if the 1st form doesnot return any validation errors. I know its possible using javascript at client side, but i want this validation on server-side.
Can any one please help me out. Thanks

Off hand I dont know the answer to your question. But since no one answered your question, here are my 2 cents worth:
I suggest all your JSP pages have one and only one form tag. Re write your JSP page. Make sure all your variables your submitting have unique names. (no duplicate names). As far as I know, having multiple forms on a JSP page is not normallly done and makes it difficult to alter by another programmer after you leave the company.

1 Form action 2 tab pages

Hello, I'm using Spry.Utils.updateContent and
Spry.Utils.submitForm for asp. My idea was to make one Form that
both tabpages (and so the asp pages behind it) will use. I can't
get this work because the form has to know to which action page he
has to submit and on which tabpage he has got to load the output.
It works now with to different Forms who looks the same where
only the action page and the UpdateResponseDiv are different (these
two forms are loaded on top of the site above the tabpages).
the Form looks likes this (tabpage1)
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post"
action="Tabpage1.asp" onsubmit="return Spry.Utils.submitForm(this,
updateResponseDiv1)">
And this (tabpage 2)
<form id="form2" name="form2" method="post"
action="Tabpage2.asp" onsubmit="return Spry.Utils.submitForm(this,
updateResponseDiv2)">
Is there a way to get this done in 1 Form. Maybe by looking
which tabpage is active and depending on that change the action
page and the UpdateResponseDiv.

Trying to create two form buttons side by side?

Hi all...
Kind of a strange question... I've been messing around with this one for way too long now and thought I'd seek your help...
Anyway, one <form> with two submit buttons on them. One is a "submit" button and the other is a "cancel" button. I do have them working fine. The "submit" button forwards the <form> data to the .php file for processing (and works fine). However, the cancel button which does nothing more than calls on the index.html.
Problem: I can't get them to sit side by side on the form... Or at least not without making the "cancel" button fail. Remember this is all one form (or is it?)...
The last lines of code for the "submit or cancel" buttons are below...
<form action="contactlist.php" method="post" name="contactform" > <---- This is the first line for the actual form. The remaining code is for the buttons at the bottom of the form.
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
<form action="index.html" method="post" name="contactform"/>
<input name="cancel" type="submit" value="cancel" />

If you are learning, I would not worry too much about JavaScript, just concentrate on PHP.
Normally I would use
<input name="cancel" type="button" value="cancel" onclick="window.location='index.html'">
which simply saying that when the element (<input>) is clicked on, change the URL to 'index.htm'.
The reason I used the function in my first example, is because DW supplies the function auromatically by following this procedure
1. In design view, click the cancel button. In code view you will see the element highlighted and the status bar will show <input> highlighted as in
Also in the properties window under the status bar, you will be able to change the button attributes.
2. With the button highlighted, click on the Tag Inspector-->Behaviours tab, click the '+' and 'Go to URL' as follows
This will pop-up a dialog.
3. In the 'Go To URL' dialog leave the 'Open in' field with the default value and enter the requested URL in the 'URL' field, using the browse feature if desired.
4. Click 'OK' and in the code view you will see the added JS function and the behaviour attached to the button. In the Behaviours panel you will also see the behaviour attched to the selected element.

Two Forms

Hope you all had a lovely xmas!
I have a quick question. I am using two forms;
Form A
<h:form id="formA">
     <h:outputLabel for="tel" value="Telephone">
      </h:outputLabel>
         <h:inputText id="tel" value="#{bean.tel}" required="true" label="Telephone" size="20" maxlength="30">
</h:inputText>
Form B
<h:form id="formB">
     <h:outputLabel for="tel" value="Telephone">
      </h:outputLabel>
         <h:inputText id="tel" value="#{bean.tel}" required="true" label="Telephone" size="20" maxlength="30">
<h:commandButton value="Submit" action="submit"/>
</h:inputText>My question is, is it possible to use the submit button on FormB to submit both forms?

That's two requests. You'll have to let the one form open in a new window. You can use the target attribute for that. Then just submit it using Javascript.
That can result in bad user experience though. Why can't you use one form for that?

Two form/ invoke 2 seperate urls?

Hi All,
I have following Jsp page:
My requirement is: Page has a single submit button and two <FORM> tags. Each form tag has a Url   to invoke on Submit button pressed.
Meaning if usedr selects   SIT1 radio button and presses Submit    then      the browser should display indexBM.jsp page
If   user selects    SIT2    radio button and presses Submit, then   browser should display   indexComp.jsp    page.
Following is not working.   What changes I need to do to achieve above?

How to submit two forms at same time?

Have a client that requires their members to update their profile information and some of the details from that form need to also populate a WebApp.
I've seeded the CRM with basic (first name, last name, email address, Your ID, and EntityID) member data.
Members would log in and be asked to update their profile. [action="/MemberProcess.aspx"]
This submission should update their CRM record *AND* create a WepApp record at the same time.
I tried the AJAX + jQuery method, including the second WebApp form [action="/CustomContentProcess.aspx?...] fields as type="hidden", and using {tag_FIELD NAME}; but this isn't working for me, I'm admittedly not a real programmer.
Any thoughts? Thank you very much, in advance for any and all help!
p.s. the reason for wanting to do this, is so that members do not have to update their CRM profile and then also input their data specific to the WebApp form (it's a member listing) as a separate task.
p.p.s. after I get through the above hurdle... how can I ensure that a CRM user has one and only one WebApp item (their listing) and that they can edit it? Another issue I'm having now is that users create a new listing in the WebApp if they submit another record and in the future I fear that simply editing their CRM profile will create new WebApp listings too. This site is like a phone book, there should only be one listing for each unique email address (in this case).

You can use Jquery + AJAX to submit as many forms as you want to as many places as you want. Don't use the HTML to submit and have a second javascript submitter as the Javascript might not have time to complete before the page is submitted.
I wrote this quickly just now, this wont work on the JSfiddle site because you can't form POST / GET anything on it (AJAX included it seems). it will submit to other URLs the same data. It is done in parallel and because we don't know which one will finish quicker, both calls check if all calls are complete before confirming everything is complete. I have not tested it but it would get you 99% of the way there.
<form id="signup_register" action="" method="post">
    Firstname<br/><input type="text" name="firstname"><br/>
    Lastname<br/><input type="text" name="lastname"><br/>

        PostSubmit(url2,data, function(){ complete2=true; if (complete1 && complete2){ FinishedTwoFormSubmits() } });

Unable to get the "Submit a form" action working with Webmail: Gmail

I am attempting to create interactive PDF forms for the website which the end user will email back once filled out.
I have added a link to the form that runs the "Submit a form" action, this appears to work if you have a mail client installed, but if you specify Webmail "Gmail", the system appears to start the process with:
First asking you for the email account details to add
You are then asked to allow Adobe Acrobat permissions to your access your email account
It then attempts to create a draft message but fails with: "Error while creating message ..."
NB: I have logged into my Gmail account on the client PC and I am able to send emails.
Any ideas if this has a known problem and if a fix is available, without a fix it makes interactive PDF's a bit pointless?

now my question is how can I save state of my first form even after clicking on submit button...........
pls,help.

Hi Shirish,
in your scenario you can write manual process for one form in your both forms, using this way you can achieve you functionality.
do the above and for that manual process keep the button name as your second form button means, for two forms saving with only one button.
i am not sure in this, but you can try something.
Thanks

Creating two dynamic action in a page

Hi,
I have created two dynamic action under the page_items(p6_item,p6_item1 both are hidden).
First dynamic action under p6_item is action1.
properties of action Event-> Change
Selection_Type->Item
Item-> p6_Item
Value-> show
(When i Hit the button viewall it should only display region1)
True Action:
sequence->10, Action->Show, Fire->Yes, Selection Type->region, Region->region1
sequence->20, Action->Hide, Fire->Yes, Selection Type->region, Region->region2
False action:
sequence->30, Action->Hide, Fire->Yes, Selection Type->region, Region->region1
Second Dynamic action under p6_item1 is action2
properties of action Event-> Change
Selection_Type->Item
Item-> p6_Item1
Value-> show
(When i Hit the button Search it should only display region2)
True Action:
sequence->10, Action->Show, Fire->Yes, Selection Type->region, Region->region2
sequence->20, Action->Hide, Fire->Yes, Selection Type->region, Region->region1
False action:
