RE: Pop-up a window on Submit
I would open the new javascript window by calling an action like:
window.open(/app/report/Search.do?parameterXY=foo
The action could perform your search with the corresponding parameters. To
have dynamic values in the javascript you can always use your form bean eg.
window.open('/app/report/Search.do?parameterXY=bean:write name=searchForm
property=searchStuff /','myWindow','toolbar=none')
Good night ;-)

Subject: RE: Pop-up a window on Submit
Date: Tue, 12 Aug 2003 15:52:35 -0400
Well I have succeeded opening a window in struts-based jsp file. But the
window that got opened does not contain the data I retrieved from the data.
The data was set in my formBean in my Action class. I tried two different
methods:
Method#1: my jsp has been modified to the following
script type=text/javascript langugage=JavaScript
!--
function submitForm(frm)
{
win = window.open( /app/report/Search,myWindow,toolbar=none);
win.resizeTo( 450, 350);
return true;
}
//--
/script
html:form name=frm action=/app/report/Search method=post
onsubmit=return submitForm(document.frm)
With method#1, my normal 'mainReport.jsp' still displayed in the original
window with the result set of data that was retrieved from the database.
A
small window was also opened but with error 404. But I want
MainReport.jsp with the result to be displayed in the new window.
Method#2: my jsp has been modified to the following
html:form action=/app/report/Search method=post
logic:equal name=SearchFormBean property=result scope=request
value=ok
script type=text/javascript langugage=JavaScript
!--
win = window.open( ,myWindow,toolbar=none);
win.resizeTo( 750, 450);
//--
/script
/logic:equal
In my Action class, the result' property is set to ok when data are
retrieved from the DB successfully.
With method#2, a 'blank' new window is opened. The original window didn't
change, it has the search filters. But I want the result to be displayed
in
the new window.
My struts-config file:
actionpath=/app/report/Search
type=com.test.action.report.ReportAction
name=SearchFormBean
scope=request
validate=false
forward name=Content path=/app/report/MainReport.jsp/
forward name=ContentError path=/app/report/Search.jsp/
/action
I guess I don't know what to put as the 'url' parameter in the window.open()
method in order for MainReport.jsp to be displayed in the new window with
the retrieved data. As you can see, I tried using /app/report/Search
and
. Neither one works.
Any idea???

Hi Koni:
I must have misunderstood what you adviced me to do because I couldn't
get
it working on what you suggested. This is what I did:
I added the logic tag in my jsp:
logic:equal name=SearchFormBean property=result scope=request
value=ok
javascript:window.open(, myWindow, 'toolbar,width=450,height=500')
/logic:equal
=== the rest of this jsp file is just a table to display my data.
I added a new property result into my formBean and also its getter and
setter.
private String result;
Then in my Action class I added the following call to the setter when my
data are retrieved successfully:
if (formBean.isMainReportAction())
{
this.validateAction(formBean, request, errors); // validate search
filters
if(errors.empty())
{
retrieve data for main report and display main report
formBean.setResult(ok); // IF EVERYTHIANG IS OK, SET result=ok
so jsp will pop up new wdw
}
else
displayed error message in the original window
}
But when I ran this, no window is pop-up. The data is still displaying
in
the original window.
Did I miss something that you tried to tell me? Thx...

Hi Pat,
Try the html code. Name it as test.html. The point is frm.target. You
can manipulate that and achieve what you want. But one issue is the
window which pops up will have location bar, buttons, etc., I don't know
how to hide them. If you do manual window.open you won't receive the
submitted values.
html
head
script type=text/javascript langugage=JavaScript
!--
function validateForm(frm)
{
if (frm.name.value == )
{
alert('name is mandatory');
return false;
}
else
return true
}
function submitForm(frm)
{
if (validateForm(frm))
{
frm.target = _blank;
return true;
}
else
{
frm.target = _self;
return false;
}
}
