So let's say after getMasterData servlet will response.sendRedirect to to test.jsp.
In test.jsp
Create a javascript
<script type="text/javascript">
function alertName(){
alert("Form has been submitted");
}
</script>
and than at the bottom
<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = alertName; </script>
Note:im not sure how to type the code in stackoverflow!. Edit: I just learned how to
Edit 2: TO the question:This works perfectly. Another question. How would I get rid of the initial alert when I first start up the JSP? "Form has been submitted" is present the second I execute. It shows up after the load is done to which is perfect.
To do that i would highly recommendation to use session!
So what you want to do is in your servlet:
session.setAttribute("getAlert", "Yes");//Just initialize a random variable.
response.sendRedirect(test.jsp);
than in the test.jsp
<%
session.setMaxInactiveInterval(2);
%>
<script type="text/javascript">
var Msg ='<%=session.getAttribute("getAlert")%>';
if (Msg != "null") {
function alertName(){
alert("Form has been submitted");
}
}
</script>
and than at the bottom
<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = alertName; </script>
So everytime you submit that form a session will be pass on! If session is not null the function will run!
