Submitting a Form using POST to RenderURL

[Patrick McCabe <pa...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

We were running a site using Jetspeed 2.1-Dev and are now trying to get
everything working with 2.1 Final. We have quite a few places where we were
using a HTML form, like follows.
<form method="POST" action="<portlet:RenderURL/>">
<input type ="hidden" name="blah" ... />
</form>

Since moving to 2.1 Final this no longer works.  It seems that the portlet
is not called at all, as nothing in the doView method gets executed.  Does
anybody have any ideas what is going on here?

Thanks

Pat

Sounds like you are getting cached portlet content.  You might set
your cache setting in portlet.xml to 0 and see if that helps.

I would think you would want to use an action URL instead of a render
URL for your form post though...
