    text
    copied!<p>I need to send dynamic complex data (multiple values) from a JSP to a Servlet</p> <p>I'm working with work history, so the user can provide multiple previous jobs and each job has multiple data associated(company name, date, job title, among others).</p> <p>As the work history is dynamic I can't use something like request.getParameter("job_title"), I think it can be done with AJAX but I'm not sure how to do it.</p> <p>This is the jsp file(Dynamic table contains description,company name, job title, start date and end date):</p> <pre><code>&lt;h2&gt;Work History&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;fieldset&gt; &lt;span class="tab"&gt; &lt;a href="#" onclick="cloneMe(this); return false;" class="cloneMe" title="Add"&gt;+&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="#" onclick="deleteMe(this); return false;" class="deleteMe" title="Delete"&gt;x&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;table cellspacing="10"&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;label for="description_hl"&gt; Description: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="description_hl" name="description_hl" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;label for="company_h1"&gt; Company: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="company_hl" name="company_hl" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;label for="jobtitle_hl"&gt; Job title: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="jobtitle_h1" name="jobtitle_h1" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;label for="startDate_hl"&gt; Start Date: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;input type="date" id="startDate_hl" name="startDate_hl" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;label for="endDate_hl"&gt; End Date: &lt;/label&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;input type="date" id="endDate_hl" name="endDate_hl" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;/table&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; &lt;/br&gt; </code></pre> <p>Any ideas or direction on how to do send this dynamic data to a servlet? </p>
