RemoteCommand tags not applicable when html of my current page is passed via jQuery for managed bean

Question

I get the current HTML for the page using the JQuery.html () method like this.

<h:outputScript name="js/jquery-1.7.2.js" /> <h:outputScript> function getHtml(){ $('#next').click(function(){ htmlString=$('#wrapper').html(); alert(htmlString); command({param:htmlString}); }); } </h:outputScript> 

My XHTML Page

 <div id="wrapper"> <form prependId="false"> // My HTML form with some input fields <h:commandButton id="next" value="Submit" action=#{bean.formvalues} onCick="getHtml();"> <h:commandButton> <p:remoteCommand name="command" actionListener="#{bean.getjs}" /> </form> </div> 

My bean

  @ManagedBean @sessionScoped public class bean{ private String formvalues; // getters and settes public String getformValues(){ String htmlString = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap().get("htmlString"); return htmlString; } } public void getjs(){ String value = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap().get("param"); System.out.println("**************** The Javascirpt is "+value); } 

But I can not get the "htmlString" , which has the HTML source code of the page in the bean when I use this goodfaces mainfaces tag. How to get it in a bean.

You should call remoteCommand as follows:

 <h:outputScript> function getHtml(){ $('#next').click(function(){ htmlString=$('#wrapper').html(); alert(htmlString); command([{name:'param',value:htmlString}]); //This is important }); } </h:outputScript> 

and you can get the parameter value in the getJs method:

 public void getjs(){ FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); Map<String, String> map = context.getExternalContext().getRequestParameterMap(); String value = (String) map.get("param"); System.out.println("**************** The Javascript is " + value); }
