Hi all,
I have an html form , and there is a table of eight rows and two columns in this form .The name of the form is Collect_Form, and I use the method POST to post the form Collect_Form to a servlet named ProcessingServlet .
I would want that when a user selects(or clicks) a row of the table, the form is posted to the servlet (I don't want the user to be obliged to click on a submit button every time he has to select or click a row of the table).
How can I achieve this?
Thanks you.

Set an onclick handler for the <tr> that submits the form? (Not entirely sure this will work--may need to do at <td> level, I'm never sure.)

A click handler can be established on the <tr>.
