I have simple paypal form to submit and make a payment inside in paypal. Once I saved user data, I want to initiate form submit action.
Here is a half solution - it posts data, but doesn't bring user on paypal checkout window as html form would do.
Submitting POST data from the controller in rails to another website
HTML form:
<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="return" value="http://back">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart">
...
<input type="submit" >
</form>
So I need initiate submit button click from the controller with taking user to the same page where data has been posted, same as HTML form basically does.
Well, here's a link to a related question. To be short - you can't make a redirect + POST request in HTTP.

I have a HTML page. I have a submit button on the page. When user clicks the button, I want to redirect him to another site. Where should I put the code? Please be specific.
Thanks for advance !
Try something like
<form action="http://myRedirectedSite.com/redirectedPage.html" method="get">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
You could use either get or post as the method depending on the other site. Note that any form field values will be passed to the other site.
I have an URL. There is a form in that URL and I know it's name and the form action.
E.g:
url:
www.abc.com/123.html
form:
<form action="POST.php" method="post" name="form">
<input id="id" name="name" type="text">
</form>
My question is how do I post this form and get the response? I have tried several answers but they didn't work well. Any programming language is fine.
this can be done in PHP.
see this Submitting form to remote server.
I'm making a single web app.
I have a form with a POST method and an action value equal to "/login".
<form action="/login" method="POST">
<label for="mail">Email</label><input name="log" id="mail" type="text">
<label for="pass">Pass</label><input name="pass" id="pass" type="text">
<input type="submit">
When the submit button is press, server get the form, then return to the index page.
But, in the address bar, I have "local:5050/login" and would have "local:5050".
Can I remove the "login" mention ?
Since you are making a SPA, you will not want to have the POST method of the form actually complete. Generally this is done in dart by attaching a listener on the form element, within that listener you would then do a couple of things:
1) Cancel the default action (Also see: How do I prevent an on.submit event from changing/reloading the page?)
2) Get the values you're interested in from the form (or potentially take the entire form itself)
3) Send the values via an AJAX request to the server and listen for the response from the server to verify it was valid etc.
See the Dart tutorials on forms for more information on accomplishing the other steps.
I have the following form
<form id="file_upload" action="/Upload/Save" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" id="txtProposalName" name="name" placeholder="Nome da Camiseta" />
<input type="text" id="txtProposalDesc" name="description" placeholder="Descrição da Camiseta"/>
<div class="fileupload-buttonbar">
<div class="progressbar fileupload-progressbar"></div>
<span class="fileinput-button">
Upload images
<input type="file" name="files[]" multiple />
</span>
</div>
<input type="hidden" id="imgID" name="imgID"/>
<input type="submit" id="postProposal"/>
Would call this action:
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult Save(string name, string description, string imgID)
{
return Json("a");
}
(This is the current implementation, it has no logic because I am still testing some things).
My problem is: when I click on my submit button, the action is called with the correct values, but when it returns, my browser redirects to /Upload/Save (which is the action URL).
Why is this happening? Is there any way to prevent it?
Thanks!
You can use an asynchronous call to your method (e.g. AJAX) to prevent the page from reloading.
You can use Ajax.BeginForm to prevent reload page.
As I can see you use full page reload with:
action="/Upload/Save"
Also you trying to post data to json action method in controller. You need all form submit make with jquery, most problems you will find with ajax file uploaders.
Added:
Also look at serialize() it will help you to collect all form input values.
Dont need to prevent it, just redirect the user in your server code .
I have form area in my view. If I click button A, I want to submit to /Books/1 and if I click button B, I want to submit to /Books/2
How do I achieve this with MVC?
<form id="form1" name="form1" action="/Books/" method="get">
<input type="text" name="search" value="">
<input type="submit" name="id" value="1">
<input type="submit" name="id" value="2">
</form>
It sounds like what you want to do is call the Books Controller, with, say, the Search action. So for instance you might want to call /Books/Search/<search expression>/1, or /Books/Search/<search expression>/2, etc. (There's a few different ways you could be formatting these URLs, but it's mostly a matter of personal preference I think) If you want the URLs to appear as you've got them above (without the action in the URL), that can be accomplished with routing, something like this:
routes.MapRoute(
"Books",
"Books/{searchExpr}/{pageId}",
new { controller = "Books", action = "Search", searchExpr = "", pageId = 1 }
);
I think the main problem is that you're trying to use the WebForms PostBack everything paradigm in a situation where you're probably better off sending the information to the server in the URL or query string. The only time you're actually going to be posting form data here is when the user actually types something into the search box and clicks the Search button - at that point, the controller will pass the search expression to the appropriate View by stuffing it in ViewData, and from there, the View can pull it out and repopulate that textbox on the results page.
MVC Views can have multiple forms on a 'page', so just create separate sections and give each one their own form action.
<form id="form1" name="form1" action="/Books/1" method="get">
<!--...form fields-->
</form>
<form id="form2" name="form2" action="/Books/2" method="get">
<!--...form fields-->
</form>
I have never seen the ability to have a form field attached to two forms, seems like it wouldn't work. What you can do is put a hidden field in the second form which, on submission, grabs the information from the textbox in the first form.
