RE: calling ACTION from SEARCH button, results displayed in new w indo w

["Cook, Graham" <gr...@cgey.com>]

The field on the form is part of a company name, the popup window will be a
list of all names in the database that match what the user has typed in the
input field.

I know that I need to use Javascript to create the popup, what i need to
know is whether or not i can pass the JSP field into a javascript function,
then call an action. Or do i need to hardcode the field reference in the
Javascript method ie . document.form.companyname

How do you go about calling an action from a SEARCH button on a JSP, and
passing in one of the JSP fields to the action in order to bring up a popup
window with data related to the field on the JSP. eg. like part of a name
that you want to search on?

This is really OT on this list. 

function populateLOV(obj) {
	var url=...;
	url += '?myParam=' + obj.value;
	showLOV(url);
	return false;
}

<input type="button" onclick="return populateLOV(this)">
