Navigation - form - target stuff.

Posted on Feb 16, 2005 at 01:30 PM 14 Views

Hi,

I have a BSP-site which includes frames.

frame1 and frame2

I need the "GetVendor" stuff to go to frame2. and the other to frame1

I tried some stuff with Javascript. No success.

I need to use 1 form tagg.

Any ideas ?

<form name="mainform" method="POST">

<input type="submit" name="onInputProcessing(GetVendor)" value="Submit">

<input type="submit" name="onInputProcessing(Submit)" value="Submit">

</form>

Event Handler:

if event_id eq 'Submit'.

navigation->goto_page('k1.htm').

else

navigation->goto_page('k2.htm').

endif.

//Martin

    Hi Martin,

    you can realize that by either using the Model-View-Controller concept (MVC) or by creating 3 pages.

    The first page embeddes the frames while the other two pages are for the two frames. You can have a form tag in each page.

    Regards,

    Rainer

    As far as I understood, you want to have two submit buttons which will submit the same form to the different frames?

    Sounds a little strange 😊

    Anyway the BSP event handler cannot help here. It is called when the form is already posted.

    To post the form into another frame you have to set the 'target' attribute for the form. This can be done dynamically with javascript.

    Additionally the 'action' attribute also must be changed to point to second page.

    Example:

    <form <i>id="form1"</i> name="mainform" method="POST">

    onclick="form1.target='frame2'; form1.action='k2.htm'" type="submit" name="onInputProcessing(GetVendor)" value="Submit">

    <input type="submit" name="onInputProcessing(Submit)" value="Submit">

    </form>

      I am going to make a guess and here is what i think is the issue.

      He has got a main page(1.htm) and within that got two frames holding two different pages (2.htm(frame a) and 3.htm(frame b)).

      If action eq 'X' from page 1.htm he wants to load 2.htm (in frame a) and else load 3.htm (in frame b).

      This can be handled this way.

      oninput processing of page 1.htm set a varialbe to some value (for e.g X or Y).

      And in the layout of 1.htm i have a code something like this

      <% if variable = 'X' . %>

      <script>

      window.open('2.htm' , target="a");

      </script>

      <% elseif variable = 'Y' . %>

      <script>

      window.open('3.htm' , target="b");

      </script>

      <% endif . %>

      Regards

      Raja
