Livesite Post Form and HttpContext

Hi,

I have a form in my component whose action is set to the same component itself. In my JAVA class, i want to get all the values that have been inserted in the form. The form is using "POST" method.

I tried to get all parameters using the context.getParameters(); But i do not see the form data in the response that i just flush back.

The only way i could make it work is by using the $SUBMIT_URL together with the additional parameters. And then in my java class, i do context.getParameterString("param1");

The issue is that the form can have indefinite number of fields.

How it is possible to get all the parameters/fields found in the form in my java class?

I could not access HttpContext, HttpServletRequest also.

Could you please help me.

Thank you.

Hi,

Using both the livesite.jar and livesite-runtime.jar, i do not get any function after the context.getRequest().

Then it's quite likely that you're missing the servlet-api.jar in your IDE classpath.

Hi,

Okay, so it is possible to include it in the pom.xml? I have not yet made the changes.. However, just been curious, will be it any issue between the servlet-api.jar in the project and with Livesite/Teamsite?

You shouldn't be copying any JARs to your server if they're already provided by TeamSite. In Maven terms, that means set those artifacts to the "compile" (or testing) scope only.
