Tej,
I'll use Dojo Ajax in such situations. I have incomplete implementation for
similar use, may be it will help.
In the controller of your webapp, add following handler
<handler name="jsonservice" type="request" class="
org.ofbiz.webapp.event.JSONServiceEventHandler"/>
Then add a request entry that calls service e.g
<request-map uri="lightCreateGlJournalEntry">
<security https="true" auth="true"/>
<event type="jsonservice" invoke="createGlJournalEntry"/>
<response name="success" type="view" value="none"/>
<response name="error" type="view" value="glJournalEntryData"/>
</request-map>
This request will return a JSON response that you can convert into
Javascript object and read values of interest. you may find example for
this in content component .
I hope this helps.
Regards
Anil
