category name instead category id

[swetha]

Hi,
   I need to pass category name instead of category Id. In my application category Id is primary key. when i passed categoryname and send a request, it is giving error like "Category not found for Category ID !"

Can u give an idea how to hide categoryId and have to display category name.

In my application at user side some category's are displaying. If we click on a particular category image, it should go to the next page. suppose for that url is <a href="http://localhost:xxxx/ecart/control/category/~category_id=BROWSEMEN">http://localhost:xxxx/ecart/control/category/~category_id=BROWSEMEN. Here category Id is primary key. now i want to display category name in place of category Id and remaining pages should work properly. I kept category id in hidden form and fetch category name from the database. Then it is displaying category name but when we click on particular category image it is showing that "category not found for particular category Id".

Do you mean from a lookup?

you can pass categoryId and then show category name <display description>
 (if you are using form widget)  or
<option
value="${listVariableName.categoryId}">${listVariableName.get("fieldName",locale)}</option>
if you are using ftl

Could you explain more what you want exactly to do.
Because I guess you will always need to pass the categoryId as it's a primary key...
