Re: Submit POST data with no callback

Okay, for the record, this does not redirect the current page to the URL that is set to the action of the FormPanel. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

                FormPanel form = new FormPanel();
                form.setAction("https://www.FAKEDOMAIN.com/my-account/order-complete.html");
                form.setHeight("1px");
                form.setWidth("1px");
                form.addStyleName(AppController.HIDDEN_CLASS);
               
                Hidden transactionId = new Hidden();
                transactionId.getElement().setAttribute("name", "transactionId");
                transactionId.setValue(order.getOrder().getQuoteNumber());
               
                Hidden transactionTotal = new Hidden();
                transactionTotal.getElement().setAttribute("name", "transactionTotal");
                transactionTotal.setValue(order.getTotalAmount().toString());
               
                Hidden printURL = new Hidden();
                printURL.getElement().setAttribute("name", "printURL");
                printURL.setValue(order.getPrintURL());
               
                FlowPanel formStuffer = new FlowPanel();
                formStuffer.add(transactionId);
                formStuffer.add(transactionTotal);
                formStuffer.add(printURL);
               
                form.add(formStuffer);
                view.getPnlTrackingSubmitter().add(form);
                form.submit();

Darn, I was really hoping there'd be an cleaner way but if it works, it works, I guess. Thank you, Slava. :)

You can have hidden (display: none) FormPanel with method="post". Then:

form.getElement().<FormElement> cast().setTarget("");

form.setAction(url);

form.submit();

That will redirect to specified url with POST.

I feel a little silly asking this since it feels like something that should be obvious.

How do I submit data to another URL, via POST (or GET if need be) without it being an ajax request? Do I need to construct a fake FormPanel and make it 1px big to submit the data to a URL? Can I use request builder and set the content-type header? The problem is that I need to browser to advance to that URL where the submission is processed but the GWT methods all seem to expect that to be an asynchronous event.

Please help?
