dynamic widgets
Scenario: An HTML form is contructed using JSP where most of the widgets are statically created (except for labels). However, there is a group of check boxes which are created based on information contained in a database. There may be one checkbox or many. How would you express this in the form-bean in struts-config.xml. I am using DynaValidatorForm but will actually be doing validation for this group of checkboxes in the Action. Any ideas?

Re: pre-populating DynaValidatorForm
I am using struts 1.1, and I am directly instantiating a DynaValidatorForm in my Action class. I am hesitant to embrace struts 1.2 at this time, especially if the difference between 1.1 and 1.2 is as large as betwee 1.0 and 1.1. Is there some other way to accomplish it? Dean Hoover Hubert Rabago wrote: What version of Struts are you using? How are you instantiating your Dyna*Form? Struts 1.1 didn't really have direct support for instantiating DyanForms from an Action object. Struts 1.2.0/nightly build does.

non-ascii characters
I have a database with ISO 3166 country names and codes that I use to populate an html:select. There is one country in the list that contains a non-ascii character and I want to make sure it shows up properly. That country is listed in HTML as ÅLAND ISLANDS I have two questions regarding this non-ascii: 1) How should I encode it in my (mysql) database? Right now I put it in with the character reference as written above. 2) Assuming I leave it the way it is in the database as stated in 1) above, how do I get the html tag machinery to not attempt to escape the ampersand?

Re: Using optionsCollection - LabelValueBean
I'm also a newbie, but here is an example of what I found by getting
some help from the people on the list plus experimentation. Here is
a helper class I wrote:
package fi.els.form;
import java.util.*;
import org.apache.struts.util.LabelValueBean;
public class CreditCardOptions
{
public static Collection getCardOptions()
{
Vector creditCardOptions = new Vector();
creditCardOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("MasterCard", "mc"));
creditCardOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("Visa", "visa"));
creditCardOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("American Express", "amex"));
creditCardOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("Discover", "discover"));
return creditCardOptions;
}
public static Collection getMonthOptions()
{
Vector monthOptions = new Vector();
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("01", "01"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("02", "02"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("03", "03"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("04", "04"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("05", "05"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("06", "06"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("07", "07"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("08", "08"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("09", "09"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("10", "10"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("11", "11"));
monthOptions.add(new LabelValueBean("12", "12"));
return monthOptions;
}
public static Collection getYearOptions()
{
Vector yearOptions = new Vector();
Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance();
int y = calendar.get(Calendar.YEAR);
for (int i = 0; i < 12; ++i)
{
Integer year = new Integer(y + i);
String ys = year.toString();
yearOptions.add(new LabelValueBean(ys, ys));
}
return yearOptions;
}
}
Here, I am using it. Since the choices are static, I put it in the
session. I suppose I could have put it in application context.
Anyway, here is a JSP snippet that uses it:
<%
// Create the credit card options (if not already in the session) for
// the credit card select widgets.
if (request.getSession().getAttribute("creditCardOptions") == null)
request.getSession().setAttribute("creditCardOptions",
fi.els.form.CreditCardOptions.getCardOptions());
if
(request.getSession().getAttribute("creditCardExpirationMonthOptions")
== null)
request.getSession().setAttribute("creditCardExpirationMonthOptions",
fi.els.form.CreditCardOptions.getMonthOptions());
if (request.getSession().getAttribute("creditCardExpirationYearOptions")
== null)
request.getSession().setAttribute("creditCardExpirationYearOptions",
fi.els.form.CreditCardOptions.getYearOptions());
%>
:
property="value" labelProperty="label"/>
Hope this helps. I know how frustrating this stuff can be...

Proposal: modify LookupDispatchAction
I have been trying to figure out how to handle
a cancel button using LookupDispatchAction.
Specifically, I want to not do form validation
if the cancel button is pressed. I found out from
discussion on this list that the cancel button
ends up with a different name attribute than
other submit buttons on the form. This causes
a problem with LookupDispatchAction since
the parameter is not sent in the request. As an
experiment, I copied LookupDispatchAction
into my source tree, changed the name to
LookupOrCancelDispatchAction and made
a simple change to it. Before any other processing
takes place in the execute method, the following
code is processed:
if (request.getParameter("org.apache.struts.taglib.html.CANCEL")
!= null)
return dispatchMethod(mapping, form, request, response,
"cancel");
In my action that extends LookupOrCancelDispatchAction,
I do exactly what I did with LookupDispatchAction except
I don't bother defining a cancel method mapping and I do write a
cancel method. This works just great. I just think that this
behavior should be supported in the framework. It makes me
feel uneasy to copy a framework class and modify it in order
to accomplish what I think is probably frequently need
behavior. Any thoughts?

Anyway, struts has this construct I want to use for building an HTML select tagset from a java collection. Here's the jsp snippet: The reference to "countries" is a java.util.Collection that is put into the session. I have a class I wrote "CountryOptions" that contains one static method: public static Collection getOptions() that creates what it needs to.

wizard best practices?
I've been reading books, the internet, this list, and
experimenting, attempting to build a model for
best practice for a wizard utilizing struts 1.1 and
DynaValidatorAction. I've got a simple model
working but validation does not work. In other
words, the validator framework does not seem to
be doing its thing. I've recently used DynaValidatorAction
on single forms with great success. The other thing
I am wondering about, assuming the Validator
will validate, is once the code runs the
Action, I'd like to be able to do secondary
validation based on business logic. This means
I would need to get the page number, and I am
not sure I understand how this works. I have a hidden
field on each form in the wizard for page. This
presumably works in conjuction with the field
page attribute in the validation config file. If someone
can explain how I can complete this thing, I would
be grateful. Also, maybe this example could be added
to the struts website as I have to believe I am not the
only one struggling with this.
Many thanks.

subform definition in struts-config.xml and validation.xml
I have found cases in an application I am developing where I can use tiles to define subforms that I can use in several places. For example, I have a registration form that collects contact information. Once registered, a user can change their contact information. I defined a tiles "subform" to collect the contact information, which is really useful. But in defining the form-bean (struts-config.xml) and formset/form (validation.xml) for the two different forms I need to cut and paste the information in both files. How can I define chunks of xml representing the subform components for the two configuration files and include them twice so that I don't have to cut and paste.

Re: Suggestion needed on good Struts book
I've got: Struts in Action Programming Jakarta Struts Professional Strut Applications I like Struts in Action the best, but the pain is that I am a new Struts developer and want to develop to Struts 1.1 (or maybe even 1.2) but the books are written to Struts 1.0. Struts in Action spends 90% of the book talking about how to do this and that in Struts 1.0 and then port it to Struts 1.1, which is more involved than you might think. My educational process has gone something like this: read all the books and try the examples. Join this mailing list. Troll the internet. Experiment like crazy. Hopefully, there are some new books coming out soon which are not historical. Dean Hoover Paul-J Woodward wrote: Struts in Action - Manning Excellent book.

tiles:insert attribute vs. name
I've read the documentation (although currently sleep deprived) and I cannot understand the difference between using name and attribute in the tiles:insert tag. Can someone shed some light on this?

i18n in tiles-defs.xml?
Suppose I have a string defined in a definition, such as: How would I go about replacing "Hello" with a reference to a string instead of the string itself? Can this be done just using tiles-defs.xml, or is it a two step process? For example: and then in the .jsp file: Please let me know.

struts-form vs struts html

servlet.getDebug
I am a newbie reading "Struts in action" and am attempting to build the logon example in chapter 3. I am using Struts 1.1 and unfortunately the book is written primarily to Struts 1.0, which was the stable version at time of writing. Anyway, I get this when I build a couple of the java files: warning: getDebug() in org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet has been deprecated [javac] if (servlet.getDebug() >= Constants.DEBUG) Is there some recommended replacement for that construct?
