GWT simple submit web form - redirect to new page

I have a simple web form written on Google web tools. I want the user to keep track of the new URL when he clicks the submit button. However, I cannot find examples of redirecting the user to the new URL from the GWT code. How can I achieve this?

To redirect the user to a new page, use Window.Location.assign() .

For this to happen when the user FormPanel.addSubmitHandler() form, use FormPanel.addSubmitHandler() or addSubmitCompleteHandler() so that redirection occurs when the form is completed.

the exact answer:

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

with this line you change the target parameter of the form, and now you redirect the main page to the action URL.

be careful that Window.Location.assign () creates a new GET request after your main POST !, so this is not the answer.

So what you need to do is use the setAction () method for the FormPanel. And you need to build the form panel as such:

FormPanel form = new FormPanel (new NamedFrame ("_ me"));

This will make the redirect send as usual.

Hope this helps.

You can look at an example on roughain http://examples.roughian.com/index.htm#Panels~FormPanel

You can also read javadoc @ http://google-web-toolkit.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/1.6/com/google/gwt/user/client/ui/FormPanel.html

To have the user switch to using the setAction URL of the setAction method
