What are other mechanism to get and post values to or from in HTML form?

[Kishor Joshi]

Hi there

I have a question that I want to get some values from the server based on some input Id send from my view page.I am getting what I want.

But I have made a form like this

<form action="http://localhost:8080/WebFormSpringHibernate/search" method="get">
<label style="font-size: 20px; margin-left: 40px;">Id</label><input type="text" id="search_id"/><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>

I want to know is there any other way then form that I can pass values to server side servlets(or any..)?

hope you can understand.Please ask if not

Thanks

Anything that makes an http request to the server can pass data back.

images, iframes, stylesheets, external scripts, XMLHttpRequest Object, etc

Please UseCodeTags rather than quote tags when posting code.

What's wrong with the form approach? You haven't said. It's hard to advise something else when we don't know what you are trying to accomplish.

The form can easily be turned into an Ajax request with something like the jQuery Forms plugin if needed.
