| # submit |
| |
| Please make sure you have read the [Tag Syntax](tag-syntax) document and understand how tag attribute syntax works. |
| |
| ## Description |
| |
| Render a submit button. The submit tag is used together with the form tag to provide asynchronous form submissions. |
| |
| The submit can have three different types of rendering: |
| - `input`: renders as html `<input type="submit"...>` |
| - `image`: renders as html `<input type="image"...>` |
| - `button`: renders as html `<button type="submit"...>` |
| |
| Please note that the button type has advantages by adding the possibility to seperate the submitted value from the text |
| shown on the button face, but has issues with Microsoft Internet Explorer at least up to 6.0. |
| |
| > To use method attribute (to use multiple submit buttons which direct to different action methods) you must set |
| > **struts.enable.DynamicMethodInvocation** to **true** but this can lead to |
| > [security vulnerability](http://www.brucephillips.name/blog/index.cfm/2011/2/19/Struts-2-Security-Vulnerability--Dynamic-Method-Invocation)^[http://www.brucephillips.name/blog/index.cfm/2011/2/19/Struts-2-Security-Vulnerability--Dynamic-Method-Invocation] |
| > - use with care! Instead you can try to use Multiple Submit Buttons] solution. |
