Hello everyone,
I am working on an input for for a distributed java enterprise system and I
ran into a problem. I am developing a form that is used for data entry into
a system. The contains certain amount of static data that is stored in the
database. Most of this data contains keys that are associated with certain
entities in the system. What I am trying to accomplish on the input form is
when person who is inputing the data enters a key for a certain entity, I
want to populate several fields on the form that compromise the rest of the
entity data given the key. I have created cache objects that are used to
load all static information to a java class. But I cannot access any JSP
object from the javascript unless it can be evaluated at the time of the
compilation. What I need to do is dynamically lookup information stored in
my cache objects based on the input of the user. I created javascript code
that populates the missing fields, but I cannot access JSP object
dynamically. I solved the problem using LiveConnect from Netscape by
embedding an applet into my input form and using LiveConnect to dynamically
lookup information that I have stored in caches. I do not like this solution
since it involves applets which I am trying to avoid application-wide. I was
wondering if someone is aware of the slickest solution that will support the
functionality that I need.
Thanks in advance
