RE: Multiple forms in one JSP + one Action
Why would you want to have an action related to 2 forms. A form typically means a business functionality and an action is the trigger for that business functionality. If you are saying that a single functionality encompasses more than one form then there is problem in the design. I think u shld give a good rethink even before starting the development Thanks, Satish -Original Message- From: Hollaway, Shedrick CIV (TRFKB C600) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 12, 2004 6:21 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Multiple forms in one JSP + one Action I am unable to find a solution or an alternate way of having multiple forms in one jsp and upon submit one action handling all forms.The jsp will have the forms as follows: <%-- first form stuff -- using formA --%> <%-- second form stuff -- using formB --%> <%-- third form stuff -- using formB --%> How do I indicate to the action that it depends on two forms?

I would like the user to be able update fields in multiple tables without binding the table in one very big ActionForm. Does this fit the exception of nested forms using JSTL? I understand it was html-el, but that doesn't matter - you should still just use property when you 'can' for text fields ( if iterating over checkboxes and displaying the values of the checkboxes with el, that makes more sense). You shouldn't be worrying about the backend at all from a front end perspective. The role of the front end is to capture and display data so I wouldn't worry about: (Atable = Aform, Btable = Bform). Here's what I do in your case. Imagine the slightly more complex case of "updating user information" Using your scenario, the set up could be like this: 1) Create an ActionForm that will be used to capture user information: //UserActionForm String id String firstName String lastName String homePhone String contact1 String contact2 2) I'd use a Dispatch Action for the Action class, but since I'm not sure if used them before, I'll assume a regular Action. So Create a "GetUserAction" and for this example we'll also need an "UpdateUserAction" (Dispatch really makes this much easier but that's another topic). 3) User might click on a link with an userID and we then need to populate the ActionForm so the fields (firstName, etc) can be updated. So imagine a link that will map to "GetUserAction" and takes request parameter of "id." For this example we'll bind our UserActionForm for this mapping. So we might have a link that looks like... /getUser.do?id=3456 which in our StrutsConfig file we'd map that getUser.do to our "GetUserAction." So GeUserAction is called... now here's where you'll see what I'd do... //in execute of GetUserAction.. UserActionForm userForm = (UserActionForm)form; String id = userForm.getId(); //now you mentioned you have different business calls to make //to populate both contact information and the rest of the info... //I'd think about creating a new query but lets assume you have to make //both calls.

So yo forward on to your page and you have a //nice form with... first name: //... Contact 1: //..etc The above of course submits to UpdateUserAction (or if Dispatch Action something like "UserAction" and in there you could do the reverse... UserActionForm userForm = (UserActionForm)form; NameValueObject nameObject = new NameValueObject(); BeanUtils.copyProperties( nameObject, userForm ); ContactValueObject contactObject = new ContactValueObject(); BeanUtils.copyProperties( contactObject , userForm ); yourServiceLayer.updateUser( nameObject, contactObject ); Again I still think it makes more sense to probably have just one ValueObject ( user ) to deal with holding all this, but you might have some requirement were you need to have each different object representing a table. (Use iBATIS and you won't have to worry about that:) By the way, I have some examples of this stuff at http://www.reumann.net/do/struts/main A lot of the stuff I do there I'd do slightly different now but the principals are still ok. -- Rick - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't know.. but what you're trying makes no sense from an engineering point of view... Form objects are not meant to represent tables... they are view only objects... it's up to your action class to then map the view to the database ( or, better, translate the view to 1+ value objects, call your business object which n turns actually handles manipulating the DAO objects), not the other way around.

Re: Multiple forms in one JSP + one Action
First form has among other things: two attributes of the type formB1 & formB2 (with the accessors getFormB1 & getFormB2). The fields in the forms are then named : _ formB1.name, formB1.surname _ formB2.name, formB2.surname Don't forget to instanciate in the FormABean the two "sub" beans. \T, > I am unable to find a solution or an alternate way of having multiple > forms in one jsp and upon submit one action handling all forms.The jsp > will have the forms as follows: > > > <%-- first form stuff -- using formA --%> > > <%-- second form stuff -- using formB1 --%> > > > <%-- third form stuff -- using formB2 --%> > > > > How do I indicate to the action that it depends on two forms?
