Hello, I want to create a simple form with a name and an email and save these data in an XML file. So far I found that using Ajax with jQuery is quite easy. So I used the usual code:
//dataString have the values taken from the form
var dataString = 'name='+ name + '&email=' + email;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "users.xml",
data: dataString,
dataType: "xml",
success: function() { .... }
});
If I understood well, in the url I should add the name of the XML file that will be created.
When the user clicks a button I call the function with the Ajax request, and then I should call somewhere a function for generating the xml.
I am using also two beans. One is for setting the elements of the user and the other is for saving the data in the XML. I am using the XStream library for the xml although I don't know if is the best solution.
The problem now it that I can not connect all these together in order to save the data in the XML.
Does anyone know what should I do?
Thanks a lot!
