Question

I have a struts application, and I am trying to call the Action class with an URL. When I try to pass the request parameters, none of them get appended.

Here is the code I have :

    document.myform.action = "mydetails_${firmID}_${empID}.action?id=56";
    document.myform.submit();

But this is what I see in chrome console :

mydetails_123_04.action?

For some resaon, the stuff after the question mark is not appended. Am I missing something ?

Don’t think you can set params like that in the action. You need to add them as parameters in the form, which involves creating a hidden input node:

var input = document.createElement( 'input' ); 
input.type = 'hidden';
input.name = 'id';
input.value = 56;
document.forms.myform.appendChild( input );​
