That will teach me to trust the specs without actually testing something before replying to a question! (oops)

I have tried this and it doesnt have the desired behaviour: <jsp:SetProperty name="RequestParmBean" property="inputfieldA" value=""/> This will not set inputfieldA to an empty string. Does anyone know why they implemented it in this way? -----Original Message----- From: Zerbe John W [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 4:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: JSP:Setproperty and empty strings If I am reading the spec correctly, you can initialize all of your properties individually prior to setting them from the request params. I believe that the line you quoted from the spec only applies when setting properties from request params. eg: <jsp:SetProperty name="RequestParmBean" property="inputfieldA" value=""/> <jsp:SetProperty name="RequestParmBean" property="inputfieldA" param="inputfieldA"/> or, assuming an input form the "inputfieldA" and "inputfieldB": <jsp:SetProperty name="RequestParmBean" property="inputfieldA" value=""/> <jsp:SetProperty name="RequestParmBean" property="inputfieldB" value=""/> <jsp:SetProperty name="RequestParmBean" property="*"/> -----Original Message----- From: Tim Davidson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 9:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: JSP:Setproperty and empty strings Hi Using <jsp:setProperty...> is is possbible to set empty strings? and if so how? I realise the spec says: "If the parameter has an empty or null value, the corresponding Bean property is not set. " but can anyone reccommend a fix? thanks in advance. ========================= To unsubscribe: mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with body: "signoff JSP-INTEREST".
