How to send data to a port from a webpage??

silverscorpion · 2010-04-27T05:59:12+00:00

Hi guys, I'm in need of something for a project. I have a webpage. It has HTML and some php in it. Now, the page has a button. If the button is clicked, I want to get the value of a particular textbox in the page and send it to a port in the server's computer.How to do that? To elaborate, the server computer will be running a java program which will be listening on a particular port. Now, if the client clicks a button, then the textbox value must come to the port which is being listened to in the server. How can I do this? Any ideas? Edit : Assume port number to be anything other then ports which are used for specific things by default, say 80 or 21. Assume it to be 8001 or 9000 etc..

Hi silverscorpion,

I guess if you add a property of the same name as that of your "textbox" name in html.php page and make getter setter of that property then that value should be available in your java program. Still, can't say anything without looking at your both the programs because way of retrieving parameter value changes based on the way they are passed.

If possible, please post your piece of code. Thanks !

Hi silverscorpion,
Socket programming in php helps your need, you may find what you need in #-Link-Snipped-#, you can send data to port.
