Parameter passing using Javascript+actionFunction in visualforce
In visualforce, there is a method for passing parameters from visualforce page to controller using javascript and actionFunction. Here is the example; /*JavaScript*/ <script type="text/javascript"> function doSave(date) { paraFunction(document.getElementById(date).value); } </script> /*Action Function*/ <apex:actionFunction name="paraFunction" action="{!saveInterviewDate}" rerender="view"> <apex:param id="aname" name="interviewDate" value="" /> </apex:actionFunction> /*Call the javaScript from here*/ <apex:commandLink onclick="doSave('{!$Component.interviewDate}');"> <apex:commandButton value="Save"/> </apex:commandLink> /*get the parameter in controller*/ String interviewdate=Apexpages.currentPage().getParameters().get('interviewDate');
