Hi all
I have a small problem . I am having a HTML form where on clicking a
button, I open a subwindow which contains a combo
box. The value selected in combobox is returned to the form element.
On submitting the form details, I printout the HTML thru servlet.
Now, when I click the same button again to open the
subwindow, the error message "Error file was not found.(servlet
name=AssignEngr.html)appears.
How can I open the subwindow?IS there any way of returning the
formelement values without actually reprinting the
HTML form thru the servlet(ie, only reading the values and then returning
the values to a static HTML page).
Thanx in advance.
CODE PIECES ARE AS FOLLOWS
In html page :
a]
<script language='javascript'>
function assignEngr(){
if(myWin.name==null){
myWin=window.open("AssignEngr.html","subwindow","HEIGHT=100,width=350")
}else{
myWin.focus()
}
</script>
----------------------------------------------
In the following statement "AssignEngr.html" is being interpreted as a
relative URL from the URL of document in which it appears:
myWin=window.open("AssignEngr.html","subwindow","HEIGHT=100,width=350")
Because the URL that created this page starts with "/servlet", the URL
created by this statment also begins with "/servlet" which the server
(and servlet engine) is interpreting as a request for a servlet.
The solution is to use the full (absolute) URL to AssignEngr.html in your
JavaScript.
