i have written a small code which inclued 2 jsp pages and
1) test2.jsp --> i have made a dropdown in this page
2) test3.jsp --> displays a welcome message when the person selects an option from the dropdown , he will migrate to this page without refreshing test2.jsp
for this i have used ajax jquery
when i click on the submit button nothing happens , please help me with this i have also put the org.json.jar file in the libraries
test2.jsp code
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js"></script>
<script src="//malsup.github.com/jquery.form.js"></script>
<script>
function check()
{
$.ajax({
url: "test3.jsp",
type: "GET",
success: function() {
alert("succes");
},
error: function() {
alert( "Sorry, there was a problem!" );
}
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<br>
<form method="post" action="test2.jsp">
<select name="city">
<option value="dropdown">select city</option>
<option value="jal">Jalandhar</option>
<option value="ggn">Gurgaon</option>
<option value="noida">Noida</option>
<option value="amrtsr">Amritsar</option>
<option value="bombay">Bombay</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="check()">
</form>
test3.jsp code
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>JSP Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>welcome</h1>
</body>
</html>
The function should return false to prevent form submittion
<script>
function check() {
$.ajax({
url: "test3.jsp",
type: "GET",
success: function() {
alert("succes");
},
error: function() {
alert( "Sorry, there was a problem!" );
}
});
return false;
}
</script>
It should be
<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="check()">
instead of
<input type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="check()">
because submit input type call form's action that is test2.jsp.
call your javascript function on change event of drop down
onchange="check()"
and navigate through firebug and check your consol it will show you your whole ajax request
