[opencms-dev] How to show a page with data submitted from a form

[Steve Bryan]

Hi

As an alternative to loading template from the JSP - you could just submit
to a regular xmlpage (ie action="result.html"). In OpenCms 'html' pages are
not static and can run jsp code via the template.

You could write a new template for this page or adapt the existing one, to
do the processing you describe, since the template can run sections of jsp
to check parameters etc.

In our sites we never have jsps including template - we always have xmlpages
and these either include content elements, or run jsp, according to logic in
the main template controlled by page properties (eg 'jsp-body=xxx').

Hi,

I have an HTML page (page with free text) with a form and I would like 
the data submitted through it to be displayed in another page. My idea 
was to have something like this in the HTML page:

<form ... action="result.jsp">

Then make the JSP process and display the submitted data. The thing is I 
can't find any way of loading the template from the JSP so it looks like 
any other page in the web site.

Is there any way of doing this? Or is my approach just wrong?

I'm using OpenCms 7.0.5.

Thanks,
?lex
