I could not get the form method to work, so ended up passing an eventlink url to my javascript and adding parameters to it. Works a treat and simple.
Link link = componentResources.createEventLink("geolocation", null); final String eventLinkURI = link.toAbsoluteURI(); ajaxResponseRenderer.addCallback(new JavaScriptCallback() { @Override public void run(JavaScriptSupport javascriptSupport) { javascriptSupport.addScript( "locate('" + eventLinkURI + "');"); } }); function locate(eventLinkURI) { if (navigator.geolocation) { navigator.geolocation .getCurrentPosition(function (position) { var geolink = eventLinkURI + "?lat=" + position.coords.latitude + "&long=" + position.coords.longitude; $.ajax({url: geolink}); }, geoError); } } On Tue, Aug 30, 2016 at 12:11 PM, Chris Poulsen <mailingl...@nesluop.dk> wrote: > Use a form, request parameters or url context - The usual way of sending > data to the server. > > -- > Chris > > On Tue, Aug 30, 2016 at 11:56 AM, Qbyte Consulting < > qbyteconsult...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I get JS to populate the hidden form fields, they are passed as > parameters > > to the page, but they are empty strings? > > > > function locate() { > > //Geolocation > > if (navigator.geolocation) { > > navigator.geolocation > > .getCurrentPosition(function (position) > > { > > $("#latitude").val(position. > > coords.latitude.toString()); > > > > $("#longitude").val(position.coords.longitude.toString()); > > }, geoError); > > $("#locateForm").submit(); > > } > > } > > > > On Tue, Aug 30, 2016 at 8:24 AM, Nathan Quirynen < > > nat...@pensionarchitects.be> wrote: > > > > > Hi > > > > > > I guess you could do something like the following: > > > > > > Create a component just containing two hidden fields and in the after > > > render event of this component run a javascript module where you get > the > > > longitude and latitude and set these values to your hidden fields. > > > Add two parameters (latitude and longitude) to the components java > class > > > to which you pass the latitude and longitude properties from your page > > that > > > have to be set when submitting the form.
