Perform Insert in Jquery Mobile

Hi Guys,

 

Just want to know how to perform an Insert action in the Vf page using Jquery Mobile or how can you pass a parameter to the methods in your controller. What I did is a copy a text input value and use it as a parameter to pass into my method in which it uses the passed value to perform insert operation.

Right.  Visualforce Remoting is the way to go for execution on a mobile device.  JQ or JQM are not needed to perform back-end calls.

 

Example (untested):

--- controller ---

 

global class MyConroller {
    @RemoteAction
    global static Database.SaveResult insertMe(String toBeSaved) {
        Account newAcct = new Account();
        newAcct.name = toBeSaved;
        Database.SaveResult lsr = Database.insert(newAcct, false);    
        return lsr;
    }
}

 

 

 

--- page ---

 

<script>
    // bound this to an event, say onclick or onsubmit
    function insertMe() {
        // get params from DOM or pass via params
        MyConroller.insertMe(param, function(result, event) { /* handle result */})
    }
</script>

Are you using JavaScript Remoting or ActionFunction?
