submit to a spring controller from a javascript code

Question

I am trying to submit a form to a controller from a javascript but the form button is not showing.

This is my attempt

 for (var i = 0; i < json.length; i++) {
                        users += '<strong>' + json[i].email + '</strong><br/>'  + '<br/>' + json[i].tok + '<hr><br/>';


                        //trying to hit to the controller from here but it is not working
                        //trying to hit to the controller from here but it is not working
                '<form method="post" action="searchAdmin" novalidate="novalidate">'
                '<input type="email" value="json[i].email" name="searchName" id="searchName"/>'
                 //on clicking the fetch button let it submit to the controller
                 '<input type="submit" value="FETCH" />'
                 '</form>'

Kindly assist!

I added it but still the same. Even on inspecting element, the form does not show — Francis

This question basically has nothing to do with Spring at this moment. — Branislav Lazic

user+='<form met....

because you have used ; on the first line so you need to append this string

please how do I retrieve the raw value value="json[i].email"

Francis Over a year ago

Yes. I have appended it but it is not returning the actual value of value="json[i].email"

Danyal Sandeelo Over a year ago

@Francis the button is visible now?

Francis Over a year ago

Yes it is but its not its not treating this json[i].email as a value

Danyal Sandeelo Over a year ago

alert it and see if there is some value or not..if there is the value then do it liek this value="'+json[i].email+'"

Could you try making the form a single string? Try like below;

//trying to hit to the controller from here but it is not working
                    '<form method="post" action="searchAdmin" novalidate="novalidate"><input type="email" value="json[i].email" name="searchName" id="searchName"/><button type="submit">FETCH</button></form>'
