Call Spring mvc controller's post method from html's onclick event of button without jquery

where i am trying to use button(not necessarily for purpose of submit) and onclick i want to call spring mvc's controller method whose requestmethod type should be POST not GET.

<input type="button" onClick="location.href='/result'"/>

This is my controller method which is being called on click.

@RequestMapping(value="/result")
public ModelAndView postPrintHello(@ModelAttribute("product") Product product){
    ModelAndView model = new ModelAndView();
    model.addObject("product", product);
    model.setViewName("result");
    return model;
}

But when i Add RequestMethod.POST it is not called. Please suggest me wayout for this and also let me know if i missed something from view front.

try this

HTML:

<input type='button' value='Submit'>

JS:

$('input').on('click', function () {

   $.ajax({
   type:'POST',
   url :"result",
   success: function(data) {
        console.log('success',data);
   },
   error:function(exception){alert('Exeption:'+exception);}
}); 
 e.preventDefault();
});

Without JS or JQuery

<input type="button"  onclick="location.href='/result'" value="Submit" >

Note: With this way you can only send GET Request, your controller should have this annotation method = RequestMethod.GET

and if You want POST request without Jquery use Form

<form action="/result" method="post">
        <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

First in form tag you have required some changes

    <form action="/servlet" method="post">
        <input type="submit" name="login" />
    </form>

it will call your doPost() method

Either make button type submit or call javascript method and submit form like document.forms["myform"].submit();
