using dojo text box with spring mvc
===

I am a backend developer trying to use a dojo text box in a Spring MVC3 Application.

The page has a text box and a dojo data grid below it. Text box is used to capture search criteria. When user enters value on the text box and clicks ENTER, it should trigger a Spring Controller which would search based on the criteria provided in text box in a data grid.

Questions are 

*1. How do I do this in dojo and not plain javascript. I would not want the entire page to be resubmitted.

*2. How can the controller retrieve the values entered in the text box. Will they have to be passed as @ModelAttributes or appear as @RequestParam
