For a long while I've been building forms along the lines of
<s:form>
......
<s:submit id="submit" type="button" label="Continue" action="processForm"/>
<s:submit id="cancel" type="button" label="Cancel"
action="goSomewhereElseWithoutSubmittingTheForm/>
which has worked well. Until today. Today I needed to prevent a double
submit on a form so I chose the quick way by creating a javascript onsubmit
handler to cancel the button after the first click and referenced it in the
s:form onsubmit handler
<script type="text/javascript">
var formsubmitted=false;
function preventDoubleSubmit() {
if (formsubmitted) {
return false;
}
var submitButton = document.getElementById('submit');
submitButton.disabled=true;
formsubmitted=true;
return true;
}
</script>
On clicking the submit button, the javascript disabled the button but the
performAction was never called and the form was redisplayed. So I tried
again, moving the javascript to the submit buttons onclick attribute. Same
thing. Looking at the POST through Firebug I see that without any javascript
handlers it looks like;
<form data>&action%3performAction=Submit
and with the javascript handlers
<form data> i.e the Struts action information is not being attached.
Is this expected or a bug? Am I handling multiple submit buttons in the
wrong way?
Regards
