Alloy UI Form submission

[Nilesh Nemichand Gundecha, geändert vor 13 Jahren.]

Hi Folks,

I am newbie and developing portlets using Alloy UI taglib. I am facing couple of problems -

1) When I am trying to submit aui:form from using javascript function, the submission is not taking place -

//javascript function

function submitForm(){
//some code
document.<form_name>.submit();
}
</form_name>

When I am writing such a javascript, the form is not getting submitted. Whereas, if I make my <aui:form> tag to simply <form>, the same code works absolutely fine.


2) Similar problem I am facing for <aui:input type="hidden" name="action" id="actionId">

In this case also, when I try to assign value to this hidden variable using javascript function, this does not work.

function submitForm(){
//some code

document.getElementById('actionId').value="search";

document.<form_name>.submit();
}

</form_name>

But if I use same without alloy UI, like <input type="hidden" .......>, This works fine.

Any help will be highly appreciated. Please help.


Thanks and Regards,
Nilesh.

Hi Nilesh,

You must insert the Liferay tag

<portlet:namespace />

When you use something similar to this:

<aui:input name="name_of_input" type="text" id="id_of_input" />

The final generated code is similar to this:

<input class="aui-field-input aui-field-input-text" id="_xxxx_id_of_input" name="_xxxx_name_of_input" type="text" value="">

Where xxxx is the portlet namespace. Then, if you want use getElementById:

myAUInput = document.getElementById("<portlet:namespace />id_of_input");

And if you have a form similar to this:

<aui:form action="<%= configurationURL %>" method="post" name="myFrm"></aui:form>

You "catch" it with:

document.<portlet:namespace />myFrm

And finaly:

myAUInput.value = "something";

or...

document.<portlet:namespace />myFrm.<portlet:namespace />id_of_input.value = "something";

or...

document.<portlet:namespace />myFrm.submit();
