RE: submitting back to opener page

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

Try:
opener.document.forms[0].submit();
If that doesn't work, debug by doing
alert(opener.document.forms[0]);
We have this working in IE 5+, NS 4.7+

If you want to submit the form in the original page, you can try javascript
like:
window.opener.document.forms[0].submit();
If you need to first set some values from the child window:
window.opener.document.forms[0].elements["field name"].value =

I have a  tag which is supposed to create a dynamic form, filled with a 
checkbox for every object in a collection. (The checkbox is an option to delete one of 
those records from the database.) The form itself is a Map-Backed Action form with two 
methods (public void setValue(String key, Object value) and public Object 
getValue(String key)). 




<%
(dataobjects.Record) l = (dataobjects.Record)pageContext.findAttribute("record");
String name= new String("value(" + r.getID()+")");
%>



  ..other stuff describing the record..



Is there a way in Struts to do this without calling the "record" object from the 
pageContext? Can't I get the  tag to recognize the 'record' bean 
directly without using that scriptlet and then creating a String to set the 
appropriate mapped value? 

Best,
Piers

Also, you will want to set some headers too:

This will prompt the person to download the file (basically automates the

and then write the contents of the excel spreedsheet the the reponse output

Hi,
I have a code segment which generates the file download dialog in the
browser. The file types supported are .qif, .xls

response.setContentType(download.getContextType());
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" +
download.getFileName() );

BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new
OutputStreamWriter(response.getOutputStream()));
out.write(download.getReport());
out.flush();
out.close();

This works great over HTTP in both IE 6.0 and Netscape 4.78.

But when I try this over HTTPS, the download dialog shows up with the file
name as the URL (download.do) and nothin in content type. So IE displays an
error message saying that download cannot be completed.  It works great in
Netscape 4.78

Has anybody come across this situations? Any solutions?

I am using Struts RC-1 on weblogic 5.1, JDK 1.3.1

Thanks

RE: Object-oriented encapsulation in Struts - merging Actions and ActionForms

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

Dan,

You could treat the ActionForm similar to Transfer Objects, which is a
completely valid pattern.  Furthermore, they are self-contained in the sense
that they know how to validate and reset themselves.

Actions have a one to many relationship with ActionForms, since there is one
Action servicing multiple requests.  This in itself does not break any
encapsulation rules.  What you are suggesting would imply creating a new
Action(Form) for every request, and I'm not sure that Struts would remain as
performant.

Your point about partial view states and partial controller states is
relevant, but it is probably more related to HTTP limitations as a stateless
protocol.  I haven't look at jplates yet, so please bear with me.

thanks

The MVC design pattern is an object-oriented design pattern.  It is not
inconsistent with object-oriented encapsulation!

A Struts ActionForm is not part the model in an MVC application.  It's
really just an odd combination of the dismembered state of the
controller and a dismembered partial state of the view.  The model, for
most Struts applications, is back in the EJB tier.

Take a look at the link at http://www.jplates.com about scriptlets.  It
talks a lot about this common misunderstanding.  Separation of
*independent* concerns is a driving force behind a lot of
object-oriented design patterns.  But separation of object-state from
the methods that should manage that state is a violation of
object-oriented encapsulation.

RE: Struts-menu

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

The menu repository is stored in the application context.
Look at the plugin (i'm on struts 1.0 so load it through a startup servlet).
What you do on every page is use a tag library to invoke the appropriate
displayer which renders the menu.
What you do store in the session, or wherever is appropriate, is the
PermissionsAdapter.
I don't use the role based permissioning, but load a PermissionsAdapter for
each user, which contains the  ids they have access to from the DB.

Look at the Permissions example at: 
http://www.raibledesigns.com/struts-menu/index.jsp

The example code is available through:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/struts-menu/

Hi,
I've been trying to get generated PDF and CSV files to be downloaed by my actions but 
can't get it to work in IE using HTTP 1.0 when my app is behind the corporate portal.  
It works when accessed directly through the app (but not when I try to reach the 
action by putting the full url).

I'm using all the tricks I could find:
  Setting ContentType:  response.setContentType("application/pdf");
  Setting the ContentDisposition: response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", 
"attachment; filename=file.pdf";
  Adding  8192 bytes to be sure that IE shows the document: ostream.write(new 
byte[8192]);
  /Setting contentlength: response.setContentLength(data.length+8192);
  // Flush the buffer:  response.flushBuffer();

It works in Netscape 4.7, Netscape 6.
Since IE is the problem and our corporate standard i have to try setting the Path 
Info, instead on relying on the content disposition.

So how would you set the path info if you have your actions mapped as follows:
  
action
/action/*
  
and configured as follows:
   


These are dispatch actions anf the url is something like:
http://.../action/dailyReports
If I change it to GET from POST it would be:
http://.../action/dailyReports?dispatchMethod=retrieve&reportRequest.reportIds=RDQQPB77&reportRequest.format=pdf&reportRequest.mgmtGroupNumber=51555&reportRequest.actMnemonic=XPBALC

Where would the path info go?
If I add it in between action/file.pdf/dailyReports the mapping fails and my action is 
not invoked.
If I add it at the very end &test/file.pdf I get the same stupid IE error after it 
prompts you to open/save.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciate it.

Sorry if it is a little incoherent but we really understimated our effort and have had 
to work looong hours.

RE: Struts Menu question

Filip,
You can definitely do that.
Your menu definitions are in the xml configuration file, but the logic for
determining which ones to display and how to display them is handled by the
MenuDisplayers.  The MenuDisplayers can have a PermissionsAdapter which
encapsulates entitlement logic.

Look at the Permissions example at: 
http://www.raibledesigns.com/struts-menu/index.jsp

RE: struts menu 1.2 question

Ashish,
Most of the displayers bundled in with struts-menu go as many levels
down as defined.
The source code is available through:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/struts-menu/
They are demoed at :
http://www.raibledesigns.com/struts-menu/index.jsp

The idea of having the menu go on the other side once the bottom of the
page is interesting but might take some serious effort to implement.
The javascript bundled with struts-menu is from:

This should be enough to get you started.

RE: struts menu 1.2 question

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

We have up to three levels down, but use our own displayers/javascript.
How many levels down are you going?

RE: [OT] Application Security

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

So what problem are you trying to address:
1) Users accessing data they are not entitled to access?
2) Users accessing data they are entitled to access, but in an automated 
manner which allows them to datamine, etc?
3) General hacks?

#1 is what we usually deal with, storing permissions and validating them against each 
resource they try to access.  There are a number of mechanisms, just search the 
archive for authentication and authorization.

#2 Is more of a workflow issue and sounds like a business requirement, like enforcing 
a maximum number of resources which can be accessed within a given period of time.

#3 If your app is well designed (proper authentication/entitlements, validations, 
separation of layers) you should be ok.  ActionForms act as buffers and provide a 
layer of security.  Make sure that users cannot access jsps directly... (I'm hoping 
someone else will give a more complete answer).

I'll ignore the thinly veiled insult there.

What our site is basically about is that people can access some 
information retrieved from a database.   This person registered and 
basically went and accessed all of the profiles stored on our server, 
sequentialy, using an automated process (2 per second).  This was in 
violation of our acceptable use policy.  My question is what do people 
use if something like this happens, or how do they handle any other 
intrusions on all other levels.

RE: readonly of text

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

Check: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/userGuide/struts-html.html#text
It supports both readonly and disabled.
So try something like:

Hi all,

In struts html tag , such as text ,there is not a readonly property, so How
can I set the readonly property of the text input control to "readonly" ,
for example, the output html will like this :


Could you give me some advice? Thank you very much.

RE: StrutsMenu 1.2?

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

+1 for Struts Menu.
We were able to plug in our custom authentication seamlessly and just had to
write a couple of displayers to get the look and feel we needed.
Highly recommended and it is still being enhanced.

RE: [FRIDAY] List of sites using Struts

[El Harouchi, Jaafar [IT]]

You can add Citigroup.
It is a Recommended Technology here, but we only have 1.0.2.  I'm waiting
for 1.1 to become an official release to try to have it added as a supported
version.

After the interesting exchange the other day, I went back through the emails
and composed a list of sites that use Struts. This list can be found on my
website and I offer it here for your consideration and abuse (mostly from
Mark and former Lisp programmers I expect! :-)

http://simonpeter.com/techie/java/struts/sites.html

Feel free to suggest other sites that you know of.
