"HTML form buttons HOWTO" tutorial in Cookbook does no longer work
------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WW-2362
URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-2362
Project: Struts 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation
Affects Versions: 2.0.11
Reporter: Sebastian
Assignee: Ted Husted
In the "HTML form buttons HOWTO" tutorial, it is said that "When a button is
pressed, a parameter is set in the framework with the name and value that are
specified as the name and value attributes of your HTML button. The framework
converts this automatically to boolean value if an appropriate property of the
Action is found."
In Struts 2.0.11, this is not the case.
The framework only converts to "true" if the parameter is set to the String
"true".
So the only way to get the example of the tutorial work is to define the input
tags like this
<input type="submit" name="buttonOnePressed" value="true">
<input type="submit" name="buttonTwoPressed" value="true">
This renders the example useless, as the value attribute defined the button
text.
