How to Retrieve form data on perl module

[GMunjal]

Hi,

I am developing a new ticket menu module and I want to know how can I retrieve data in perl module sent from the .dtl file after clicking submit button in the form. Please have a look at the web page. The data will be selected checkboxes.

Hello Gaurav,

normally you have forms like this:

Code: Select all

<form action="$Env{"CGIHandle"}" method="post" class="Validate PreventMultipleSubmits">
            <input type="hidden" name="Action" value="AgentYourFrontendModule">
            <input type="hidden" name="Subaction" value="YourSubaction">
            <input type="hidden" name="AnotherField" value="test">

...
</form>

This basic form construct will cause that your post will arrive at http://www.yourotrsinstallation/otrs/in ... Field=test

In your related frontend module script, you can retrieve the request parameters by using the ParamObject:

Code: Select all

my @ParamNames = $Self->{ParamObject}->GetParamNames();
my $AnotherField = $Self->{ParamObject}->GetParam( Param => 'AnotherField' );

After that you can work with the data and setup the next dtl for instance.
