Re: How do I get HTML sent to server?

MC a écrit :

Just sending the data back will not work, as the client view may have html content from other sources in its view.

how that could be possible ?
Didn't you send the original html code ?

I understand that a screenshot would work...any ideas on sending one back to the server based on a .js event? I would really prefer to have a data image as I can encrypt that and still retrieve the data from it.

getting the image to data can be made on server, that is not the problem

it is :
- to realize a snapshot at the user
- to send back this snapshot
two operations impossible in JS

Is there any way to traverse and build the HTML and get the user entered data? This is the real question no one seems to be able to answer.

As told you'll have to get all parts of the DOM while translating them in html without forgiving the content of forms's fields and other attributes of the tags and to put all that code in an hidden field sent with the form.
But this method (if it works) will not allow you to assure the user did really saw what you or I will see with this code.

The only possibly available method is to send back a PDF view of same html served with the form completed with what was sent back by the form, for agreement by user.

And what about certificates ?

What about forms in PDF ?
(I don't know how to send back a filed pdf form)
