Hi All,

I am reading an xml file using javascript and then I need to submit my form so that it calls a particular method in my JSF handler. Usually this can be done on a jsp when user clicks a button by having an actionlistener like so:

<h:commandLink styleClass="button" action="#{myHandler.outcome}" actionListener="#{myHandler.doNext}">
    <span><h:outputText value="#{text.button_submit}" /></span> </h:commandLink>

I am not sure how to call a method like 'doNext' above in the handler from javascript. I cannot do a simple:

document.form.submit();

as it then repeats the processing i have already done. I want to read values from an xml file and then call a particular method in handler. Any ideas much appreciated.
