Using a Map won’t work, primarily
because the Ognl language doesn’t support the syntax you are looking for.
If we can ever get a hold of Drew Davidson (Ognl owner) we might be able to get
support for this some day J
In the meantime, I’d recommend you
use a List of Row objects where Row has two fields: key and value.
Then in YourAction-conversion.properties
you’d have:
Collection_someList = com.acme.Row
And your HTML elements would have names
like “someList[0].key” and “someList[0].value”.

Subject: [OS-webwork] Populating
HashMaps (Maps) from a post
I saw this entry on the
wiki.
http://wikiopensymphony.com/comments/Tabular+inputs
How would you set this up if you did not know the keys ahead of time.
Namely, for every entry there would be two text boxs, the "key" and
the actual "value"
The example does:
<input type="text" name="marks['candidateId1']"
value="4" size="3"/>
Where 'candidateId1' is the key.
How would this be expressed if the user was supposed to supply the keys?
?????
<input type="text" name="marks[].key"
value="4" size="3"/>
<input type="text" name="marks[].value"
value="4" size="3"/>
Thanks
