Execute a python script on button click
You can use Ajax, which is easier with jQuery
$.ajax({
url: "/path/to/your/script",
success: function(response) {
// here you do whatever you want with the response variable
}
});
and you should read the jQuery.ajax page since it has too many options.
Make a page(or a service) in python, which can accept post or get request and process the info and return back a response. It is better if the response is in json format. Then you can use this code to make a call on the button click.
<input type="text" name="name" id="name">
<button type="button" id="home" onclick="validate()" value="checkvalue">
<script>
$('#id').click(function(){
$.ajax({
type:'get',
url:<YOUR SERVERSIDE PAGE URL>,
cache:false,
data:<if any arguments>,
async:asynchronous,
dataType:json, //if you want json
success: function(data) {
<put your custom validation here using the response from data structure >
},
error: function(request, status, error) {
<put your custom code here to handle the call failure>
}
});
});
</script>
I hope this helps
