Anup Krishnan:
Hi,
The target method received the null values because the form was never submitted , intead it was just a url request using href link.
Just as Amit suggested , try to call a commont script when any of the button clicked, and let the script decide which url to call.
Try this :
Add an name to the form :
<aui:form action="<%= generateRuleURL.toString() %>" name="formToSubmit" method="post">
Change the current button type and onclicks as below :
<aui:button type="button" value="End" onClick="<%= commonFunction('End')%>" />
<aui:button type="button" value="And" onClick="<%= commonFunction('And')%>" />
<aui:button type="button" value="Or" onClick="<%= commonFunction('Or')%>" />
Add a javascript in your page:
<script>
function commonFunction(value){
// 1) validate the form
// 2) check for the val and depending on that change the action of the form
// eg. if(val=='Or') { AUI().one("#<portlet:namespace/>formToSubmit").action='<%= generateRuleOrURL.toString()%>';}
// 3) Submit the form
}
</script>

Hi, thank you for the help but now I'm getting an error that I could not understand...
line 97 en el archivo jsp: /view.jsp
Invalid character constant
94: <aui:fieldset column="false">
95: <aui:input cssClass="lfr-textarea-container" name="ruleDefinition" style="height: 75px; width: 100%;" type="textarea" value="" wrap="off" />
96: <aui:button-row>
97: <aui:button type="button" value="End" onClick="<%= commonFunction('End')%>" />
98: <aui:button type="button" value="And" onClick="<%= commonFunction('And')%>" />
99: <aui:button type="button" value="Or" onClick="<%= commonFunction('Or')%>" />
100: </aui:button-row>
And I placed the function in the same view.jsp file as follows:
<portlet:defineObjects />
<portlet:actionURL name="generateRule" var="generateRuleURL"/>
<portlet:actionURL name="generateRuleAnd" var="generateRuleAndURL"/>
<portlet:actionURL name="generateRuleOr" var="generateRuleOrURL"/>
<script>
function commonFunction(value){
// 1) validate the form
var x=document.forms["rulesForm"]["FirstRuleElement"].value;
System.out.println("Prova : " + x);
var y=document.forms["rulesForm"]["FirstRuleAttribute"].value;
System.out.println("Prova : " + y);
var z=document.forms["rulesForm"]["Operator"].value;
System.out.println("Prova : " + z);
alert("First name must be filled out");
if (x==null || x=="" || y==null || y=="" || z==null || z=="")
{
alert("First name must be filled out");
return false;
}
// 2) check for the val and depending on that change the action of the form
if(value=='Or') { AUI().one("#<portlet:namespace/>rulesForm").action='<%= generateRuleOrURL.toString()%>';}
if(value=='And') { AUI().one("#<portlet:namespace/>rulesForm").action='<%= generateRuleAndURL.toString()%>';}
if(value=='End') { AUI().one("#<portlet:namespace/>rulesForm").action='<%= generateRuleURL.toString()%>';}
// 3) Submit the form
document.forms["rulesForm"].submit();
}
</script>
<c:choose>
<c:when test="<%= themeDisplay.isSignedIn() %>">
<aui:form action="<%= generateRuleURL.toString() %>" name="rulesForm" method="post">
.....
Could you help me with that, please? Thank you in advance!
