Submit form using java script in struts

Here is my sample code. I am trying to submit a form using JavaScript. Below code snippet works in all the browsers except IE7 and IE8

function deleteFileName(filename){
    //alert("openPage called" + pageNumber);
    document.forms[0].action = "/DeleteFile.do?filename=" + filename;
    document.forms[0].name = "searchForm";
    document.forms[0].setAttribute("method", "post");
    document.forms[0].submit();
}

Below is exact error message on document.forms[0].acton..... line

SCRIPT438: Object doesn't support this property or method

Solution

  • may be you should replace :

    document.forms[0].action = "/DeleteFile.do?filename=" + filename;

    with this :

    document.forms[0].setAttribute("action", "/DeleteFile.do?filename=" + filename);
