Ahh, parameter passing... I too have been stumped with these (see my messages from today ;). I believe I can help you with this Query:

Your <input> tag should be inside a <form> tag. I believe all you need to do is add another tag inside the form tag (as you would in normal cgi programming):

<input type="hidden" name="entity" value="$stringOfYourChoosing">

Havn't tested it, but I'm pretty sure that should work... if it doesn't you can complain at me :).

Oh, and if anyone can help with my posts below, it'd be appreciated!

Hi,

I've looked for a decent amount on how to pass parameters to action events with no luck.

This is a fairly simple request, so I hope someone has the answer:

I have in my vm file:

<input type="submit" name="eventSubmit_doEntity" value="Edit Contacts"/>

and I have a in my java:

public void doEntity(RunData data, Context context, String entity) throws Exception

Now, I know that "data" and "context" get passed in there automatically, but if I want a String of my choosing to be passed as "entity", how would I go about that? I assume there is some syntax that I can use , something like name="eventSubmit_doEntity?entity..." etc but I can't figure it out.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
