Hello , Thank you Wendy, Hubert and Ram for your reply. I followed what you have suggested and solved my problem.
Wendy , attSubmit() function accepting argument is cut paste error , I am sorry I confused you. Thank you for the code snippet. Hubert, you are right "the problem is that the link itself goes somewhere instead of just calling the JS function." Now on my JSP <%String attID="1";%> <a href="noscript.html" onclick="attSubmit('<%=attID%>');return false;">Name</a> <SCRIPT language="javascript"> function attSubmit(ID) { document.forms[0].attachmentID.value=ID; document.forms[0].action="/WFIGUI/attachment.do"; document.forms[0].submit(); } </SCRIPT> I have one question though. I do not have noscript.html in my webapp. Do I have to create one.
