How send information from forms without submit modal?

Right now i'm using jsp and bootstrap to make my front-end, and i have an option to make a new register inside a modal and this new register needs to be in my behind screen, in the past projects I used angular and it was very easy to do, but now using jsp I haven't any ideia to make it without submit my modal.
Is there a way to make it without submit my modal?

You can use Ajax, that way you can post the form to back-end to make what you need to do and than return the object to front-end.
Seeing your tags you're be able to make like that
Controller:
#Post
public void methodName(final T entity) {
.
.
.
result.use(Results.json()).withoutRoot().from(insertedObject).serialize();
}
Front:
$.ajax({
type : 'POST',
url : 'method url',
data : form.serialize(),
success : function(data){
// data is the object inserted
}
});

How to send response through ajax from servlet back to jsp? [duplicate]

I have a basic html file which is attached to a java program. This java program updates the contents of part of the HTML file whenever the page is refreshed. I want to refresh only that part of the page after each interval of time. I can place the part I would like to refresh in a div, but I am not sure how to refresh only the contents of the div. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Use Ajax for this.
Build a function that will fetch the current page via ajax, but not the whole page, just the div in question from the server. The data will then (again via jQuery) be put inside the same div in question and replace old content with new one.
Relevant function:
http://api.jquery.com/load/
e.g.
$('#thisdiv').load(document.URL + ' #thisdiv');
Note, load automatically replaces content. Be sure to include a space before the id selector.

Let's assume that you have 2 divs inside of your html file.
<div id="div1">some text</div>
<div id="div2">some other text</div>
The java program itself can't update the content of the html file because the html is related to the client, meanwhile java is related to the back-end.
You can, however, communicate between the server (the back-end) and the client.
What we're talking about is AJAX, which you achieve using JavaScript, I recommend using jQuery which is a common JavaScript library.
Let's assume you want to refresh the page every constant interval, then you can use the interval function to repeat the same action every x time.
setInterval(function()
{
alert("hi");
}, 30000);
You could also do it like this:
setTimeout(foo, 30000);
Whereea foo is a function.
Instead of the alert("hi") you can perform the AJAX request, which sends a request to the server and receives some information (for example the new text) which you can use to load into the div.
A classic AJAX looks like this:
var fetch = true;
var url = 'someurl.java';
$.ajax(
{
// Post the variable fetch to url.
type : 'post',
url : url,
dataType : 'json', // expected returned data format.
data :
{
'fetch' : fetch // You might want to indicate what you're requesting.
},
success : function(data)
{
// This happens AFTER the backend has returned an JSON array (or other object type)
var res1, res2;
for(var i = 0; i < data.length; i++)
{
// Parse through the JSON array which was returned.
// A proper error handling should be added here (check if
// everything went successful or not)
res1 = data[i].res1;
res2 = data[i].res2;
// Do something with the returned data
$('#div1').html(res1);
}
},
complete : function(data)
{
// do something, not critical.
}
});
Wherea the backend is able to receive POST'ed data and is able to return a data object of information, for example (and very preferrable) JSON, there are many tutorials out there with how to do so, GSON from Google is something that I used a while back, you could take a look into it.
I'm not professional with Java POST receiving and JSON returning of that sort so I'm not going to give you an example with that but I hope this is a decent start.

You need to do that on the client side for instance with jQuery.
Let's say you want to retrieve HTML into div with ID mydiv:
<h1>My page</h1>
<div id="mydiv">
<h2>This div is updated</h2>
</div>
You can update this part of the page with jQuery as follows:
$.get('/api/mydiv', function(data) {
$('#mydiv').html(data);
});
In the server-side you need to implement handler for requests coming to /api/mydiv and return the fragment of HTML that goes inside mydiv.
See this Fiddle I made for you for a fun example using jQuery get with JSON response data: http://jsfiddle.net/t35F9/1/

Usefetch and innerHTML to load div content
let url="https://server.test-cors.org/server?id=2934825&enable=true&status=200&credentials=false&methods=GET"
async function refresh() {
btn.disabled = true;
dynamicPart.innerHTML = "Loading..."
dynamicPart.innerHTML = await(await fetch(url)).text();
setTimeout(refresh,2000);
}
<div id="staticPart">
Here is static part of page
<button id="btn" onclick="refresh()">
Click here to start refreshing every 2s
</button>
</div>
<div id="dynamicPart">Dynamic part</div>

$.ajax(), $.get(), $.post(), $.load() functions of jQuery internally send XML HTTP request.
among these the load() is only dedicated for a particular DOM Element. See jQuery Ajax Doc. A details Q.A. on these are Here .

I use the following to update data from include files in my divs, this requires jQuery, but is by far the best way I have seen and does not mess with focus. Full working code:
Include jQuery in your code:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
Create the following function:
<script type="text/javascript">
function loadcontent() {
$("#test").load("test.html");
//add more lines / divs
}
</script>
Load the function after the page has loaded; and refresh:
<script type="text/javascript">
$( document ).ready(function() {
loadcontent();
});
setInterval("loadcontent();",120000);
</script>
The interval is in ms, 120000 = 2 minutes.
Use the ID you set in the function in your divs, these must be unique:
<div id="test"></div><br>

How to send Ajax requests in Java

Is there a way to send ajax requests in a Java program? I was thinking that there might be a jquery library somewhere, but I don't even know if jquery would be something that I should use. I'm trying to get the data from a certain request from a website as shown in this function:
function searchFraze(fraze, page) {
page = typeof page !== 'undefined' ? page : 1;
$.ajax({
url: 'ajax/tradeCsRight.php',
type: 'POST',
data: "search=1&type=10&fraze="+fraze+"&page="+page,
success: function(data) {
$("#itemlist").html(data);
}
});
}
Basically, I want to POST custom data in the data field above to the website (http://csgolounge.com/). Honestly, I don't even know if I should be doing what I'm doing this way, or if I should use some other method.
Also, in FireBug, I can see the contents of the tradeCsRight.php file as seen here (which is my goal, to see the html content of this): http://i.imgur.com/8ACnGbp.png
If I open the actual file in chrome, however, the page and html is blank (http://i.imgur.com/LHtKyUb.png). Can someone tell me why this is?

Updating div with post results using radio button and jquery/Ajax

I'm working with a third party that is generating div content based on a post response from my server (java servlet). One problem I have is that we have a list of radio buttons leveled in a form.
When I hit submit on that form, I need to make a post call to my server and re-render that div in the third party site. I have used different variations of jQuery to no avail.
I've included the most recent jQuery (also tried a sub 1.4 release of jQuery). When I hit the submit button on my form, I just render the same page and I do NOT render a call to the server.
How can I do this, update a div on the local page that renders my post results based on a form I write? Below is what I currently have:
Form:
<form action='\' id=\"form1\">... radio buttons ... </form>
<input hidden field name = value passed from Java method>
<input hidden field id = value passed from Java method>
<input hidden field the value of the selected checkbox>
HTML:
<script language='Javascript' type='text/javascript'>
$(\"#form1\").submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
var $form = $( this ),
name2= $form.find( 'input[name=\"name\"]' ).val(),
id2= $form.find( 'input[name=\"id\"]' ).val(),
url = $form.attr( 'action' );
$.post( url, { name2:name, id2:id },
function( data ) {
var content = $( data ).find( '#content' );
$( \"#this_div\" ).empty().append( content );
});
});
</script>

Sending AJAX Requests from a Third Party site to your server:
Due to browser security requirements, it is not currently possible to make cross-domain AJAX requests to a third-party server. This means that the $.post request is limited to what is referred to as the same-domain policy.
Thus, if your server is example.com and the third party server is domain.com, domain.com cannot make AJAX requests to your server.
However, there is a technique you can use to circumvent this browser security. While it's not possible for XMLHttpRequests to be made cross domain, JavaScript <script> tag blocks can load JavaScript from any domain.
Script tag remoting, or JSONP, involves using a script tag to send a request to your server:
Script tag:
// from domain.com to your server, example.com, make a request using a script tag
var urlWithParams = "http://example.com/getHTMLForm.do?id2=" + id2 + "&name2" + name2;
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");
script.setAttribute("src", urlWithParams);
// create a script tag, which invokes your servlet
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(script);
getHTMLForm.do is a hypothetical servlet that you're currently using to post the data and get HTML in the response. Instead of passing the parameters in the Request body using POST, you'll pass the data as query parameters.
Server response::
The server then responds with JSON that you generate on the server, but it's wrapped -- or padded -- inside a JavaScript function that is defined on the web page making the request.
// your response from your server
insertFormOnPage({"html":"<form action='#'><input name='name' /><input name='id' /></form>", "elem" : "#content"});
Third party Client side code:
For this technique to work, the third party site must have a function defined that matches the one your server will return:
function insertFormOnPage( data ) {
alert( data.html ); // prints the HTML for debugging
alert( data.elem ); // prints the selector you want to insert into
// inject the HTML into the #content DIV
$( data.elem ).html( data.html );
}
HTML on the third party site:
<!-- Let's just assume the third party site's DIV is empty for simplicity -->
<div id="#content"></div
Explanation:
Your server returns pure JavaScript to the client side, as JavaScript, as a function that executes immediately.
The function receives the following items as properties in a JavaScript object: The HTML, and the div id.
The function accesses the object's html and elem properties to access both the html string and the selector.
Using jQuery, the function injects the HTML inside the DIV#content element.
The last and final thing you should know about this technique is that it only supports GET methods, since that is how JavaScript is fetched from the server. This means that you'll need to make sure your server is configured to accept GET requests for this data and not POST requests.
JSONP Using jQuery:
While the above solution helps describe the concepts of what is happening under the hood, you may also want to check out jQuery getJSON. Specifically, look at the JSONP examples, which are the only way to make cross-domain requests without reloading the page.
$.getJSON("http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?jsoncallback=?",
{
tags: "cat",
tagmode: "any",
format: "json"
},
function(data) {
$.each(data.items, function(i,item){
$("<img/>").attr("src", item.media.m).appendTo("#images");
if ( i == 3 ) return false;
});
});

Loading a popup using ajax

I have a jsp page which should load a popup using ajax. The content of the page is determined by form filled by user.
Something like this:
javascript:
ajax('getPage.action', 'content_id', 'form_id');
foo.jsp:
<div id="content_id"></div>
<form id="form_id">
...
</form>
java/spring:
#RequestMapping("getPage.action")
MyController extends AbstractCommandController {
RealDto dto = (RealDto)command;
...
return new ModelAndView("foo", data);
}
The most difficult part for me is how to send the form data easily as an ajax call. Can I use jQuery here? The form changes dynamically so it would be quite bothersome to list all the fields of the form.
Would it help to use Springs XT (which I never have)?

Yes, you can use serialize to trivially convert the form to send the data.
$("#form1").submit(function() {
$.get("/desiredURL", $("#form1").serialize(), function(response) {
// send response data to a popup
}
}
You can use get or post to send the data.
For the popup I like facebox, but there's loads of choices.

jQuery form plug-in can help you easily transform a regular form to an Ajax one. You only need a single line of code:
$("#myform").ajaxForm(
{beforeSubmit: validate, success: showPopup} );

I don't know about jQuery, but for prototype this is easy:
new Ajax.Request('getPage.action', {
parameters: $('form_id').serialize(true),
onSuccess: someMethod
);
Check out the Prototype API docs.
