  • 0

I want to either remove 2 hidden fields or set them to null in a form before a POST action is performed using onclick event on a checkbox.

This is what I have – 

<input type="hidden" id="ci" name="ci" value="2"/>
<input type="hidden" id="pg" name="pg" value="prev"/>

<form:checkboxes path="choices" items="${lookups}" itemValue="id" itemLabel="label" element="li" **onclick="this.form.submit();"**/>

How do I modify my onclick event JS to support this ?

Thanks!

    Simply change the onclick to this:

    onclick="document.getElementById('ci').value = ''; document.getElementById('pg').value = ''; this.form.submit();"

    You just have to use the ID of the elements then assign their value to empty string – this will still send value though. To disable any value, disable those elements:

    onclick="document.getElementById('ci').disabled = true; document.getElementById('pg').disabled = true; this.form.submit();"
