I am new to working with Stripes. I have a dropdown ("show ## recordrs per page") and a paginated table on the JSP page and I want to display as many records per page in this table, as the value selected in the dropdown.
The action bean has a variable "recordsPerPage" and I am not able to figure out a way to set the value of this variable and reload the table, so as to change the number of records that are displayed per page. Please help.
---- Additional Info -----
The table that I use is a displaytag table, which accepts a PaginatedList. This table is within a stripes form.
-- EDIT:
What I did is, I added a <stripes:hidden/> with the name "recordsPerPage" and set the value to be the number of records I want to display. I also added a <stripes:submit> to the same form. The "name" attribute of this submit button is the method name of the action bean I have to call. When I click on this button, I am able to do what I want. But now, I am unable to do it through javascript. Please help.
Due to some reason, calling Dom.get('submitButton').submit() or Dom.get('myFormId').submit() does not fulfill the intended purpose. Taking a clue from being able to do what I wanted from the submit button click, I made this submit button hidden and the called click() on this button from javascript. Thus Dom.get('submitButton').click() produces the intended result. If someone can give me the explanation of why the submit method did not result in expected behavior, that'll be great.
