submit from on click from hyper link

[jolakammu]

Guys,

I am calling onclick="document.form.submit();" in a hyper clink.

On click, it goes to a fuseaction where act_load_structure.cfm loads the structure with form variable.

But the form fields are not avaibale in act_load_structure.cfm . It says form fields are not defined. Do you know why.

I appreciate your help in advance

I think you have specified the cfm path in the href attribute of the link.
Remove that!!! Then it should work.

here is by href. what do i need to remove.

<a href="#Attributes.TemplateURL#?CurrentPage=#Count# #Attributes.AddedPath#" onclick="document.form.submit();">

with this, it is going to the correct fuse action but the form variables are not available.

Show the form code. What is the method of submitting, GET or POST? Are you retrieving the form values as GET (url.formvar) or POST (form.formvar)?

Here is the dsp page

<cfoutput>
<cfform name="form" id="form" action="index.cfm" method="post">
<table>
    <tr>
        <td>
            <input type="text" name="log" value="#attributes.log#" />
            <input type="text" name="AcctId" value="#attributes.AcctId#" />        
            <input type="text" name="tablename" value="test" />                    
        </td>
    </tr>
</table>
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td align="left">
    <a href="index.cfm?fuseaction=#XFA.test#&amp;log=#attributes.log#&amp;AcctId=#attributes.AcctId#&amp;rn=#attributes.rn#" onclick="document.form.submit();">test</a>
</td>
</tr>
</table> 
</div>
</cfform>
</cfoutput>

<cfoutput> tablename = #form.tablename#</cfoutput>
<cfabort>

or

<cfoutput> tablename = #tablename#</cfoutput>
<cfabort>

Make the link into a submit button and/or move the href into the action attribute of the form. At the moment, it's posting to just "index.cfm".

[hussain123]

Try this code,it should work.

     <cfoutput>
 
      <cfform name="form" id="form" action="index.cfm?fuseaction=#XFA.test#&log=#attributes.lo  g#&AcctId=#attributes.AcctId#&rn=#attributes.rn#" method="post">
 
      <table>
 
          <tr>
 
              <td>
 
                  <input type="text" name="log" value="#attributes.log#" />
 
                  <input type="text" name="AcctId" value="#attributes.AcctId#" />  
 
                  <input type="text" name="tablename" value="test" />             
              </td>
          </tr>
       </table>
       <table width="100%">
       <tr>
      <td align="left">
          <a href="##" onclick="document.form.submit();">test</a>
      </td>
      </tr>
      </table>
      </div>
       </cfform>
       </cfoutput>

That should work about right.

To the OP: you're passing the attributes.log/AcctId values in the URL and the form values of the same name will also be posted. Is this necessary? Thought I'd just point out.

[hussain123]

Absolutely not required.
I just copied-pasted the url param into the Form's action tag without looking into the copied stuff. :D
