Re: Problem with bean:message tag?
The documentation for the bean:message tag states the following:
Retrieves an internationalized message for the specified locale, using the
specified message key, and write it to the output stream. Up to five
parametric replacements (such as {0}) may be specified.
The message key may be specified directly, using the key attribute, or
indirectly, using the name and property attributes to obtain it from a
bean.
So what I expect is that I can use the name and property attributes to
retrieve a message key from the ci property in the %=
Constants.STATS_KEY % bean!

Subject: RE: Problem with bean:message tag?
When I try to use
bean:message name=%= Constants.STATS_KEY % property=ci

I get the message
According to TLD attribute key is mandatory for tag message
The message is incorrect, at least if I am to believe the documentation

Does anyone has any experience using name property instead of

Are you sure you're not confusing bean:message and bean:write ? What

I have just downloaded and compiled the validation codes from latest cvs. Can any body tell me any hints of the new validation.xml?

Re: Basic Question in Servlet/JSP ?
If you're referring to the PageContext that is available when you are rendering the view, the answer would be because it doesn't exist yet ;-) The Struts ActionController (a servlet) calls an Action (not a servlet), and may eventually forwards to a JSP (another servlet). The PageContext for the JSP isn't available until it is called.

--- Ted Husted [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Any of the patterns described in the recent Core J2EE Patterns should
work well with Struts. In fact, many of these have already been
implemented for you by the framework ;-)
The three patterns that Struts developers may use most would be Data
Access Objects, Value Objects, and Helper Objects. The classical trinity
is to have a Data Access Object return a Value Object, which is wrapped
in a Helper Object and sent to the presentation layer.
In my projects, I use standard method calls to my Data Access Objects,
like
public static final int scriptInsert(
int script, byte image, String title, String article
) throws AccessException {
return
scriptCommand(script,image,title,article,Commands.SCRIPT_INSERT);
}
Where scriptCommand is a library function shared by Insert and Update.
The implementation here uses standard JDBC things like
PreparedStatements.
Though, I could change all that without affecting anything else. (Hence,
the custom AccessException instead of SQL Exception.)
The retrieval commands return RowSets
public static final RowSet scriptSelect(int key) throws SQLException
{
return RowSets.getRow(key,Commands.SCRIPT_SELECT);
}
which I use as Value objects. RowSets are handy even if you are using
something else in the implementation. Since RowSets can be created from
scratch or from a ResultSet, they make an excellent value object.
You could also pass the RowSet directly to the presentation layer, and
use the Struts logic:iterate and bean:write to access the column by
number.
bean:write name=ROW property=object[3]/
You can also use the Jakarta Tablib dbTags with disconnected rowsets. I
just submitted the patch, and it may not be available in the nightly
build yet, but you can get the updated JAR from More About Struts.
http://husted.com/about/struts/resources.htm#new
Here you just place the RowSet into Request context and tell the
resultSet tag its name.
db:resultSet id=ROW name=ROWS
and then you can use the dbTag getColumn tag to refer to columns by name
db:getColumn colName=title/
See the Jarkata dbTag docs for more about getColumn and friends.
Some other Struts design stategies I would recommend are
* Document all entry points with global forwards (no page= parameters)
* Use more mappings to minimize the use of hidden fields and query
strings
* Use the parameter property to document each operation of an Action
* Use one Action for related operations
* Use one ActionForm for related forms
* Subclass Action and ActionServlet as needed for better code reuse
* Use directory matching for ActionServlet (/do/* instead of *.do)

Re: Struts Design patterns
I would, yes. I use one Action class for all four CRUD operations on a table (or logical view), along with any special retrievals. I may use separate helper classes for specialized operations, but I try to reduce the number of individual Action classes, since these are instantiated for the life of an application. The overall pattern is that the Action selects a Helper, and passes information about the request (e.g. the parameters). The Helper calls the appropriate Data Access object (plain Java class), which returns a RowSet for retrievals, or just a count for other operations. The Helper wraps the RowSet (aka Value Object), and is inserted into the request by the Action. The Action also transfers data between the RowSet and ActionForm as needed for inserts, selects, or updates. Only the Action is linked to any HTTP packagaes. The Helper and Data Access objects could be used in any environment. Matt Raible wrote: Would you recommend using one subclassed Action servlet for both an EditAction and SaveAction?

Re: Struts Design patterns
Wondered if anyone would bite ... + Extension matching for servlets is not available in some hosting environments. + Some proxy servers choke on query strings. An enhancement to Struts could use extra path information instead, but extension matching would complicate matters. For more, see http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg11655.html Here's a working URL that uses an extra path rather than a query string: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0130648841/hitchhikeguidetoA/ As a query string this might read http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos?ISBN=0130648841hitchhikeguidetoA + *.do correlates with *.jsp, but Actions are not JSPs (or even servlets). Extension mapping encourages developers to think of Action URIs as a path rather than like a method signature. + /do/ looks ~way~ cooler on the address bar ;-) Of course, if a developer uses global forwards for all links (no page='s), then switching back and forth can be just a matter of editing the configuration file ;-) Martin Cooper wrote: I'd like to hear more about why you prefer this technique. I have to admit that I've rather blindly followed the *.do camp without giving too much consideration to the alternatives.

RE: NewB: Is Struts completely reliant on sessions
Clusterings Application Servers are designed to provide for just this case. Weblogic and Silverstream are two that come to mind that support sessions and clustering. If a clustering application server isn't an option, I believe you have only the two choices that were presented: 1.

Re: Basic Question in Servlet/JSP ?
Here are somethings I can think of: 1) The PageContext class not only encapsulates these objects, but container specific behavior as well (handlePageException, pushBody, etc.). I would imagine the availability of request and response objects here are mainly used to support these features, and not necessarily for general accessibility. 2) Also, PageContext provides some convience methods for commonly used tasks (include, forward, etc.) which helped minimize the size of scriplet block in JSPs. 3) PageContext allows a JSP engine to easily initialize a tag library with a page's state by initializing it with one object instead of many. Why isn't there a similar PageContext for Servlets? Because: 1) Behavior such as exception handling (handlePageException) and output control (pushBody, popBody) are handled by the developer of the servlet. 2) In servlets, any kind of delegation to other layers are handled by the servlet developer, whereas delegation in JSPs are handled by the container (JSP taglib). 3) The JSP Spec is a later spec than the Servlet spec, and benefits from lessons learn from the earlier Serlvet spec.

Getting Exception errors from session beans
In my action classes, I am getting a populated JavaBean from my SessionBean,
and I want to know how to get an exception into the errors using errors.add().
The difference between this and traditional errors is that there is no key in
ApplicationResource.properties, but rather, I am grabbing a string from the
EntityException.
code snippet
// Populate the EntityDO
try
{ EntityDO aEntityDO = new EntityDO(request.getParameter(id);
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
EntityManagerHome home = (EntityManagerHome) ctx.lookup(
EntityManagerHome.CLASS_CTX );
EntityManager entityMgr = home.create();
aEntityDO = entityMgr.getEntityDetails(aEntityDO);
}
catch (NamingException ne)
{
log(_className, NamingException occurred in
getEntityDetails());
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new
ActionError(errors.namingException));
}
catch (EntityException re)
{
log(_className, ResourceException occurred in
getResourceDetails());
// Get EntityException from SessionBean

RE: Struts Design patterns - if you use TogetherCC...
I have implemented the Value Object pattern in Together Control Center. My
implementation creates a vo based on an entity EJB (it would also work for
any other class with public attributes) and also adds a setter/getter for
the newly created vo to the bean class. The pattern can also be reapplied to
update things if changes are made to the bean class. I was going to post to
the community site, but there are still a few minor problems with the
module.
If anyone else is using Together+EJBs+Struts though, you might find this
helpful. It sure has saved me a lot of time! If you are interested then let
me know and I will email it to you or post it to the group.
While on the topic of Struts and Together, I was thinking about implementing
some Struts specific patterns in Together. However, I started thinking about
this in more detail, and I am not sure how useful this would be since the
majority of the Struts logic is contained in the config.xml file. It would
be no problem to generate some skeleton templates for a ActionForm or
ActionServlet, etc... but a useful pattern implementation would probably
need to contain navigational logic and update the XML file accordingly. Has
anyone else thought about this or tried to implement any Struts patterns in
Together?

Subject: Re: Struts Design patterns
Any of the patterns described in the recent Core J2EE Patterns should
work well with Struts. In fact, many of these have already been
implemented for you by the framework ;-)
The three patterns that Struts developers may use most would be Data
Access Objects, Value Objects, and Helper Objects. The classical trinity
is to have a Data Access Object return a Value Object, which is wrapped
in a Helper Object and sent to the presentation layer.
In my projects, I use standard method calls to my Data Access Objects,
like
public static final int scriptInsert(
int script, byte image, String title, String article
) throws AccessException {
return
scriptCommand(script,image,title,article,Commands.SCRIPT_INSERT);
}
Where scriptCommand is a library function shared by Insert and Update.
The implementation here uses standard JDBC things like
PreparedStatements.
Though, I could change all that without affecting anything else. (Hence,
the custom AccessException instead of SQL Exception.)
The retrieval commands return RowSets
public static final RowSet scriptSelect(int key) throws SQLException
{
return RowSets.getRow(key,Commands.SCRIPT_SELECT);
}
which I use as Value objects. RowSets are handy even if you are using
something else in the implementation. Since RowSets can be created from
scratch or from a ResultSet, they make an excellent value object.
You could also pass the RowSet directly to the presentation layer, and
use the Struts logic:iterate and bean:write to access the column by
number.
bean:write name=ROW property=object[3]/
You can also use the Jakarta Tablib dbTags with disconnected rowsets. I
just submitted the patch, and it may not be available in the nightly
build yet, but you can get the updated JAR from More About Struts.
http://husted.com/about/struts/resources.htm#new
Here you just place the RowSet into Request context and tell the
resultSet tag its name.
db:resultSet id=ROW name=ROWS
and then you can use the dbTag getColumn tag to refer to columns by name
db:getColumn colName=title/
See the Jarkata dbTag docs for more about getColumn and friends.
Some other Struts design stategies I would recommend are
* Document all entry points with global forwards (no page= parameters)
* Use more mappings to minimize the use of hidden fields and query
strings
* Use the parameter property to document each operation of an Action
* Use one Action for related operations
* Use one ActionForm for related forms
* Subclass Action and ActionServlet as needed for better code reuse
* Use directory matching for ActionServlet (/do/* instead of *.do)

RE: Getting Exception errors from session beans
Matt,
I'm not sure if this answers your question, but You can create a general
exception in the ApplicationResources.properties file, that takes in an
argument. Set the argument when you catch an Exception, such as the
EntityException.
---
ApplicationResourcesFile with argument {0}
---
error.server.exception=Server Resources Exception:{0}
Action Class
catch (EntityException re)
{
// pass the exception argument in the ActionError object
errors.add(ActionErrors.GLOBAL_ERROR, new
ActionError(error.server.exception, re.toString()));

Architecture Question - forward to another webapp
Hi all... Can someone tell me how to write an entry in my struts-config.xml file that will link me to another webapp/context. Do I have to put the entire URL? I really don't want to do that so I don't have to worry about changing server names all over the place. So for example, I have 2 webapps (I'm running in Tomcat), webapp1 and webapp2. I'd want to have links to both jsp files and ActionClasses in the struts-config.xml file. To get to the index of webapp2 from inside webapp1, I don't think this will work - it will go to http://servername/webapp1/webapp2/index.jsp, and I want it to go to http://servername/webapp2/index.jsp. forward name=forward1 path=/webapp2/index.jsp/ What do I do?

action/context path inconsitencies
I have an appliaction called tmate that is being deployed in the webapps/tmate directory of tomcat so when I call localhost/tmate I go to the index of my application. I also have in my struts confix.xml file some action mappings that begin with /tmate for example: actionpath=/tmate/projectSelect... / This has worked until today. Now, instead of looking for the full action path (/tmate/projectSelect) it truncates the tmate due to context and looks for /projectSelect. Any idea why this has begun happening all of a sudden. I haven't made any changes to struts! D

File upload problem in Struts 1.0
We have recently switched to Struts 1.0 from a previous beta version. After migrating we are having problems in uploading certain files. The files do get uploaded to the server but the contents get corrupted some times. We further investigate this problem and found out that files get damaged when they contains non-English content. E.g. if we upload a Microsoft Excel file that contains non-English characters it got corrupted, and we are unable to process that file with MS Excel afterwards. The problems disappears if we switch back to old struts.jar file. Any ideas how to fix this problem. Is it safe to replace the struts.jar file with old one as in interim solution?.

RE: problems mapping multiple ActionServlets
I had the same question last week (and for some reason did not get any response from the mailing list?) ... anyway, it seems to me that Struts really does not handle multiple servlet mappings for the ActionServlet. When using extension mappings, Struts finds the action mapping to use by stripping off the .do, or any other extension, and using that as the path for determining the action mapping. I was trying to do a similar thing where *.do was the authorized stuff, and *.go was to be the anonymous stuff ... it ended up that the generated URLs always became *.go! I think it is simply using the last mapping specified. My plan is to only use one extension mapping for my ActionServlet and come up with a different mechanism for applying my security constraints. Possibly by a vitual path where I would have *.do - as my ActionServlet servlet mapping Then I would use ... /protected/*.do for restricted pages ... Then I could set up a security constraint for /protected/* My 2 cents ... -Original Message- From: Dave Allen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 23, 2001 3:12 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: problems mapping multiple ActionServlets This might be more appropriate for the Tomcat user list, but I'll try anyway.

Mulitpage form support.
When working with multipage forms it is desirable to have one bean in the users session that is populated as the user goes through the various pages of the form. I mistakenly thought that this was one of the services that struts provides. I have now discovered that this is not the case. When a form is submitted Struts seems to blindly replace the previous bean with a new one and then populates the new one with only the values that are on that particular form. (Is there something I am missing?) The only way I can get it to work is to put hidden fields in the form so that the data entered on one page is populate back into the bean again when it is submitted. The only other option I see is to have a single bean for each page, but this is not a desirable solution. Is there some other solution? Perhaps by storing the new bean in the request instead of the session, and then copying the values into the session bean? This seems like a big pain too! Adding hidden fields to each form means that one either has to put all of the fields of the bean into every form (which is a big headache if you want to add a field) or you have to put all the fields in that have been entered so far (which is a big headache if you want to change the flow of the pages.) It seems to me that the population of values into a bean should be proceeded by a check to see if there is a bean in the users session. If there is then that beans set methods should be called. This would make it so much easier to create multiage forms, and would not require the user to add all the hidden fields to a form. This is what I thought struts did when I started using it, and I am disappointed that this is not the case. -Nick
Repost: Where did it go?!
Hi everyone. Apologies for reposting, but I am really stuck on this one, and
wondering if anyone has any ideas?!
After calling the action below to download a data directory, everything goes
fine, but somehow I lose the response output stream permanently! Thereafter,
whatever I try and view on the site is processed, but nothing gets displayed!
Do I somehow have to reset the stream? Is there any side effects from returning
null?
Any help would really be appreciated!
Thanks,
Dave

Re: Mulitpage form support.
Struts calls the reset() method on any bean before populating it from a request. This is to allow general reuse of beans, and to be sure some controls like checkboxes are handled properly. You may need to be sure that the reset() method for your session-bound ActionForm bean does not blindly clear the properties that other pages have already populated. Deft handling of multipage wizard-type forms (not be confused with multipart forms used for uploading files) has always been a problem in Struts.

Re: Problem with bean:message tag?

RE: Mulitpage form support.
I understand the purpose of reset, but do not understand how and why struts chooses to reuse a particular bean by resetting it. Does it take then bean from the users session, or does it pull it from a pool of beans of that type. If it takes it from the session and then calls reset I would be comfortable overriding reset and making it do nothing, however if it does the latter than there is a problem in that it may pull some other users bean from the pool. This could lead to really undesirable behavior, like one user resetting the password for some other user etc... Does anybody know which way struts works in this respect? I will try to look at the source and figure this part out.

Re: Mulitpage form support.
Struts doesn't maintain a pool of beans (or any other object). It just looks for an existing bean in the target scope before creating a new one of the same class. The ActionForm beans all have the same name (given in Struts-config), and so if it didn't, the new one would just overwrite the old one anyway. This saves an object create. In the case of a session bean, it also allows you to retain the properties, if reset() doesn't get in the way. The default reset() does nothing. I imagine that the class in question is blindly setting the properties to null, as all the examples suggest. In this case, it should be more careful For the Struts source, see processActionForm(), processPopulate(), and process() in ActionServlet.java.

RE: Validation Framework: Order of required Fields appearing on screen
You can force the order by associating the error with a particular property when you add it to you ActionErrors. Like this: ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors(); errors.add(name,new ActionError(name.required)); errors.add(description, new ActionError(description.required)); Then in your jsp page you do the following: html:errors property=description/ html:errors property=name/ The only problem with this approach is that you can not user the 'errors.header' and 'errors.footer' messages to surround your errors, since each html:errors tag will display these messages around the one error being printed. Hope this helps. -Nick -Original Message- From: Matt Raible [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 23, 2001 1:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Validation Framework: Order of required Fields appearing on screen I am requiring name and description on a form.

RE: Mulitpage form support.
You are correct. I looked at the code a little and see that in fact it does pull the bean from the users scope just as I desire. I had implemented the reset methods in my form classes when I first started the application thinking that they were required for the pooling to work properly. When I remove the reset method, I see the behavior that I am looking for. This makes it pretty easy to do mulitpage forms. Thanks for your help. Perhaps some day soon I will write up a user doc that will help others to setup mulitpage forms in a snap. Struts is cool! -Nick -Original Message- From: Ted Husted [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 23, 2001 2:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Mulitpage form support.

Re: Repost: Where did it go?!
Done some more testing on this, and I only lose all output if I SAVE the file -
if I chose to OPEN the file at the download prompt, the zip file opens and when
I close it, everything is still fine. However, if I save it, when it is done
none of the other pages appear, even though the action is executed just fine.
Wierd! Does anyone know what difference opening/saving the file I am
downloading would have on the response object, output stream, or anything that
would affect this?

Thanks for the suggestion, but don't think that is the case, as in another
download situation, I'm not using 2 frames, and still getting same problem. I
have stuck a println statement in, too, which shows I have access to the same
session.
Any other ideas? This is really strange! Has anyone got a download working
with struts?
Cheers,
Dave

Dave,
It sounds like you may be having a problem with holding onto the session
between your two frames. If this is a possibility, then set a session
variable in the lower frame and try printing out your session information
in the top frame to see what is going on.

Hi everyone. Apologies for reposting, but I am really stuck on this one,
and
wondering if anyone has any ideas?!
After calling the action below to download a data directory, everything
goes
fine, but somehow I lose the response output stream permanently!
Thereafter,
whatever I try and view on the site is processed, but nothing gets
displayed!
Do I somehow have to reset the stream? Is there any side effects from
returning
null?
Any help would really be appreciated!
Thanks,
Dave

Re: Validation Framework: Order of required Fields appearing on screen

html:hidden bug?
I need to create a hidden field in a form that is initialized to a value that I am iterating over. (I am creating a form that allows a parent user to manage their child usernames.) I tried something like this: table logic:iterate id=aUser name=myForm scope=session property=users trtdbean:write name=aUser//tdtd html:form name=myForm action=deleteUsername.do type=my.LogonForm scope=session bean:write name=aUser/ html:hidden property=userbean:write name=aUser//html:hidden html:submit bean:message key=button.delete/ /html:submit /html:form /td/tr /logic:iterate /table The username displays correctly, so I know the bean:write tag is working correctly. However when I look at the source that is generated I see a hidden field where the value is set to . It seems like this should work, and it doesn't cause any errors at runtime. The only way I have found to do it is by replacing the html:hidden tag with: input type=hidden name=user value=bean:write name=aUser/ This seems really clunky to me. Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug in the tag? Thanks for your help, -Nick
Re: exception handling in struts actions
The Action handles flow-control, and selects page displays, including error pages. Actions should be prepared to cope with whatever exceptions are thrown, either directly or with an ancestor method.

To answer the original question: Can someone tell me if there is a way to configure an action to match a path regardless of how deep it is in a directory? No. There is not a way to do this, without changing the way Struts is programmed to behave. You could request a feature change in Bugzilla, and bring it up on the DEV list for discussion.

How to integrate flash request into struts ...
Hello! I have a problem. A strange problem. I'm new to struts tougth i have a strong programming background. I wish to use flash with struts. What I want is to use the "loadVariables" function of flash. What this function do is to open a http connection to the server and read and process the stdout.(println in jsp). To do that i connect to a "jsp" file and pass variables in the http header (just as any HTML form) to the "jsp". My problem is the jsp file redirect the swf to the jsp and load the jsp in place of the swf. Can you help? Are there a way to connect and read to the jsp script without reloading the page just as I can do with ASP??? This trick work fine with ASP,CGI andother. What I would do in CGI is to write a script reading the query string and print out on the stdout. Without the swf to be reloading. Thank for any help or for pointing me somewhere I can find a solution!! Pi Guy
Workflow impasse? New ideas.
Hello all. I just got back and was reading the e-mails about workflows. By the tone and lack of dialog I think that we are not sure how we really want todesign workflows still. So lets have more discussion on the subject. When its clearer we will better know what we want to do. Here are some ideas I thoughtcould break down the problem a little more. I was thinking that a workflow can be described in the following ways: 1) It has a specific order 2) It DOES'NT having a specific order 3) It has a combination of tasks, some of which need to be executed in order,and others that do not 4) All of its tasks must be finished at the end 5) It May be made up of other worklflows Therefore, you would get a workflow with the characteristics you want. At the end you would make sure all tasks have been done in order it to be considered a completed workflow. For items that need order we can use the struts config file to put an entry in for workflows flow name="createAccount" class="com.brooksbrothers.workflows.Account_WF" step ordered="yes" number="1" class="com.brooksbrothers.workflows.AccountPersonal_ITEM" step ordered="yes" number="2" class="com.brooksbrothers.workflows.AccountCreditCheck_ITEM" step ordered="no" class="com.brooksbrothers.workflows.AccountDisplayTotal_ITEM" /flow /workflows anyone want to add
RE: questions about template
Hi vietk! I haven't seen anyone reply to this message yet, so on the chance that you haven't gotten the answer, here's some help. The template you set up should have an additional call to the actual page that you've written. This can be done by defiinig a call to a content section of the template. For example, your template definition page could look like this: table tr valign='top' tdtemplate:get name='sidebar'//td td table trtdtemplate:get name='header'//td/tr trtdtemplate:get name='main'//td/tr trtdtemplate:get name='footer'//td/tr /table /td /tr /table Here, the call to the 'content' would be the actual jsp page that you've written. The problem that you might be having is that you may not realize that this requires you to write 2 jsp pages, not one. The first page (let's call it 'content.jsp') would look like: %@ page language=java % template:put name='header' content='header.jsp' template:put name='main' content='contentPage.jsp' -- This is where the 'good stuff' goes template:put name='footer' content='footer.jsp' All your view, code, and other fancy shenanigans, go in the contentPage.jsp, where it will be nicely sandwiched between a header and a footer (if you choose).

Re: Workflow impasse? New ideas.
A nice way of looking at workflows is EVTX diagrams/methods Where E - Entry Criteria to start process activity V - Validation Methods (inspection methods) T - Tasks in the process activity X - Exit Criteria to say task is complete You can define your process by Listing the process activites (Each with an EVTX datum), then linking the process tasks together This has worked well for Modeling Software Process and Manufacturing Processes, Any thoughts on this?

Struts configuration problems
I am having two different problems with my struts configuration: 1) Actions don't seem to be handled correctly. Anytime a submit button is clicked (this happens on my application as well as any example applications I have deployed) it comes back with a 404. I assume this is the setup with Apache / Tomcat. I have Include G:/jakarta-tomcat-3.2.2/conf/struts-tomcat-apache.conf at the bottom of the httpd.conf file for apache, and in the struts-tomcat-apache.conf file, I have the following lines: AddType text/jsp .jsp AddHandler jserv-servlet .jsp AddHandler jserv-servlet .do Is there something else I am missing? 2) Only my simple login form jsp's compile. My more complex forms do not compile at all, but return with an error such as javax.servlet.ServletException: No getter method for property sFirstName of bean org.apache.struts.taglib.html.BEAN . I do have all of the getters and setters in the FormBean. I have checked the configuration between the different jsps and the action mappings and they seem consistent.
