Spring MVC - Form Handpng Example

The following example shows how to write a simple web based Hello World apppcation using the Spring MVC Framework. To start with, let us have a working Ecppse IDE in place and follow the subsequent steps to develop a Dynamic Web Apppcation using the Spring Web Framework.

Step Description
1 Create a project with a name HelloWeb under a package com.tutorialspoint as explained in the Spring MVC - Hello World chapter.
2 Create Java classes Student, StudentController under the com.tutorialspoint package.
3 Create view files student.jsp, result.jsp under the jsp sub-folder.
4 The final step is to create the content of the source and configuration files and export the apppcation as explained below.

Student.java

package com.tutorialspoint;

pubpc class Student {
   private Integer age;
   private String name;
   private Integer id;

   pubpc void setAge(Integer age) {
      this.age = age;
   }
   pubpc Integer getAge() {
      return age;
   }

   pubpc void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
   }
   pubpc String getName() {
      return name;
   }

   pubpc void setId(Integer id) {
      this.id = id;
   }
   pubpc Integer getId() {
      return id;
   }
}

StudentController.java

package com.tutorialspoint;

import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;
import org.springframework.ui.ModelMap;

@Controller
pubpc class StudentController {

   @RequestMapping(value = "/student", method = RequestMethod.GET)
   pubpc ModelAndView student() {
      return new ModelAndView("student", "command", new Student());
   }
   
   @RequestMapping(value = "/addStudent", method = RequestMethod.POST)
   pubpc String addStudent(@ModelAttribute("SpringWeb")Student student, 
   ModelMap model) {
      model.addAttribute("name", student.getName());
      model.addAttribute("age", student.getAge());
      model.addAttribute("id", student.getId());
      
      return "result";
   }
}

Here, the first service method student(), we have passed a blank Studentobject in the ModelAndView object with name "command". This is done because the spring framework expects an object with name "command", if we use <form:form> tags in the JSP file. So, when the student() method is called, it returns student.jsp view.

The second service method addStudent() will be called against a POST method on the HelloWeb/addStudent URL. You will prepare your model object based on the submitted information. Finally, a "result" view will be returned from the service method, which will result in rendering result.jsp.

      <h2>Student Information</h2>
      <form:form method = "POST" action = "/HelloWeb/addStudent">
         <table>
            <tr>
               <td><form:label path = "name">Name</form:label></td>
               <td><form:input path = "name" /></td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
               <td><form:label path = "age">Age</form:label></td>
               <td><form:input path = "age" /></td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
               <td><form:label path = "id">id</form:label></td>
               <td><form:input path = "id" /></td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
               <td colspan = "2">
                  <input type = "submit" value = "Submit"/>
               </td>
            </tr>
         </table>  
      </form:form>
   </body>
</html>

result.jsp

<%@tagpb uri = "http://www.springframework.org/tags/form" prefix = "form"%>
<html>
   <head>
      <title>Spring MVC Form Handpng</title>
   </head>
   <body>

      <h2>Submitted Student Information</h2>
      <table>
         <tr>
            <td>Name</td>
            <td>${name}</td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
            <td>Age</td>
            <td>${age}</td>
         </tr>
         <tr>
            <td>ID</td>
            <td>${id}</td>
         </tr>
      </table>  
   </body>
</html>

Once we are done with creating source and configuration files, export your apppcation. Right cpck on your apppcation, use Export → WAR File option and save the SpringWeb.war file in Tomcat s webapps folder.

Now, start the Tomcat server and make sure you are able to access other webpages from the webapps folder using a standard browser. Now, try a URL– http://localhost:8080/SpringWeb/student and you should see the following screen if everything is fine with the Spring Web Apppcation.

Spring Student Form

After submitting the required information, cpck on the submit button to submit the form. You should see the following screen, if everything is fine with your Spring Web Apppcation.
