Re: Tile Problem
Are you using the struts-el tags. You might have them installed as
bean-el in which case you would need to use
key="${titleKey}"/>
I only use the EL tags, so I just use bean as the tag prefix eg <%@
taglib uri="/WEB-INF/jsp/tags/struts-bean-el.tld" prefix="bean" %>

Re: i18n with Japanese characters and tags....
He was saying it 'can' display Japanese characters. The example doesn't have any Japanese characters in in (if i remember correctly), but if they are put into the properties files for the locale they will be displayed. You should look into that http://www.anassina.com/struts/i18n/i18n.html page as it explains a lot. I think the main problem is you have the Japanese characters already converted into HTML in your application as yuo have them in the format ハ. When you use a bean to write it out, the bean tried to escape any characters that are significant to HTML, and the '&' character is one of them. That is why it replaces your '&' with '&'. The bean is trying to help by displaying the text you provided in HTML so that it will appear as ハ on the page. The 'filter=false' stops it doing this, but also means if you have some other characters like '<' in your text then they won't be escaped and could cause the page to be rendered incorrectly. When I display Japanese characters on my pages I store them in Japanese in a .properties file, then use native2ascii to convert those japanese characters into the Java Unicode properties file format of \u. When java reads them in, the actual unicode character is passed around in java and output directly into the html page. The page encoding is set to UTF-8, and the browser can display it correctly. The bean:write will also still escape the characters that need it such as '&' and '<'. This also means I am not dealing with HTML formatting inside my Java code, and can happily store the same characters in files, databases etc or output to another device instead of HTML. -- Jason Lea carlo latasa wrote: >I just checked the example application and did not see anything on Japanese >characters.

Re: UTF-8 characters in the name of the uploaded document
Hi Zsolt,
I wrote this reply in response to the same problem but in a different
thread. I couldn't find it in the struts mailing list archives, so I
include it again with the message it responds to. Someone has since
written to me confirming that this does work.
-
Yes, I think you are right, i didn't realise which class we were talking
about there. I have just read a bit more about the Struts FileUpload
and how it wraps commons upload. Assuming Commons Upload works
correctly with the setHeaderEncoding, then I guess there might be work
around.
Struts will use org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler
by default to handle extracting the parameters out of the request and
populating the form. It uses the DiskFileUpload class from Commons
FileUpload. It is that handler that we need to modify, to do that we
could create our own using the
org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler source as the basis.
We need to tell Struts to use ours instead of the defualt by adding this
to your struts-config.xml
Then to modify org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler
by creating our my.own.MultiPartClassHandler class.
We need to modify the handleRequest() method like so:
// Create and configure a DIskFileUpload instance.
DiskFileUpload upload = new DiskFileUpload();
upload.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8");
// Set the maximum size before a FileUploadException will be thrown.
upload.setSizeMax((int) getSizeMax(ac));
...
This is all untested and off the top of my head, so there is likely to
be a mistake there somewhere, but I think it is possible.

I have not used the file upload yet, but I believe you need to set the
encoding for the headers
formFile.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8")
setHeaderEncoding does this:
"Specifies the character encoding to be used when reading the headers of
individual parts. When not specified, or |null|, the platform default
encoding is used."
If this was running on a English operating system it is probably
defaulting to the Latin-1 encoding.
From this Java Doc:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/apidocs/org/apache/commons/file
upload/FileUploadBase.html#setHeaderEncoding(java.lang.String)
Please post back to the forum if this works. I would be interested in
the result.

Everything works fine except that I have problems with decoding of the

I use the code below to get the name of the uploaded filename:

String filename = new String(nm.getBytes(), "UTF-8");
The code above converts only the first couple of characters correctly

Any ideas how to fix the problem?

For example, I would like to parse a search string into tokens where tokens are
delimited by either a blank space or a quoted phrase.
So the string:
'Struts "web presentation tier"'
would return 2 tokens:
- Struts
- web presentation tier
but the string:
'Struts web presentation tier'

Re: Breadcrumbs
Hmm, I should probably point out a few things with those links The value is normally the text to link on, but I have internationalised my app so I use it as the key to look up the real name in my application.properties file. Same goes for the tooltip, it is just the name of the key to look up. The link I use is just the name of a forward. And I am using JSTL to substitute the values into the struts html-el tags (i only use html-el so I just labelled mine html instead of html-el) eg So my breadcrumbs can appear in japanese or english depending on the locale that is selected. These breadcrumbs work if you have 1 path to the page. If you want to track history you will have to do something else.

Re: LookupDispatchAction
Well, LookUpDispatchAction doesn't call the unspecified action when it
is no parameter is supplied.
One way would be to override the method that does the lookup and when no
action parameter is supplied, call the unspecified() parameter.
Another way is to make your initial call to the action provide the
parameter. I have done this in some cases by defining some
eg
The other thing that needs to be looked at here is that 'list' will not
be localised. So in my default ApplicationResources.properties file I
have a global.list=list, and have map.put("global.list","list"); entry
in the keyMethodMap. Then make sure you don't localise the global.list
in the other properties files. I might have a localised list button eg
map.put("button.list","list"); too, so that the list button appears in
the correct language. There is no problem with more than 1 name linking
to the list method.

renderForm renders the form (I don't access the jsp directly, just the

Re: What is wrong with this upload filename (UTF-8) decoding?
Yes, I think you are right, i didn't realise which class we were talking
about there. I have just read a bit more about the Struts FileUpload
and how it wraps commons upload. Assuming Commons Upload works
correctly with the setHeaderEncoding, then I guess there might be work
around.
Struts will use org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler
by default to handle extracting the parameters out of the request and
populating the form. It uses the DiskFileUpload class from Commons
FileUpload. It is that handler that we need to modify, to do that we
could create our own using the
org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler source as the basis.
We need to tell Struts to use ours instead of the defualt by adding this
to your struts-config.xml
Then to modify org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler
by creating our my.own.MultiPartClassHandler class.
We need to modify the handleRequest() method like so:
// Create and configure a DIskFileUpload instance.
DiskFileUpload upload = new DiskFileUpload();
upload.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8");
// Set the maximum size before a FileUploadException will be thrown.
upload.setSizeMax((int) getSizeMax(ac));
...
This is all untested and off the top of my head, so there is likely to
be a mistake there somewhere, but I think it is possible.

I have not used the file upload yet, but I believe you need to set the
encoding for the headers
formFile.setHeaderEncoding("UTF-8")
setHeaderEncoding does this:
"Specifies the character encoding to be used when reading the headers of
individual parts. When not specified, or |null|, the platform default

If this was running on a English operating system it is probably
defaulting to the Latin-1 encoding.

Re: not writing?
I have read about people having problems getting or setting a bean which
does not fit the bean specification. In that case the Cart object would
also need a setSubTotal(double dbl) method, even if it is not used eg
public class Cart extends HashMap {
private double subTotal = 400.00;
public double getSubTotal(){return subTotal;}
public void setSubTotal(double dbl){subTotal=dbl;}
}
This could be the problem because the bean:write would expect a bean,
but the <%...%> is just accessing an object's method.
Also the way to access maps in struts is object(value) eg
Which is roughly the same as
These should perform the following: cart.get("abc")

Here's the bean:

Re: Best way to parse a String and replace line feeds with f or html?
That does mean you are adding some html formatting to the action which isn't so nice.

Re: Strategy for out of date items through forms using hibernate?
With versioning hibernate increments the version number each time. I believe this is prefrered to the timestamp method, but I think hibernate supports both. (off the top of my head) I have a struts form which holds the fields etc plus the object I loaded from Hibernate. I use DispatchLookUp actions so that all of my actions are selected from the button pressed eg it adds a dispatch=save, or dispatch=overwrite to decide which action to perform. The save action would normally reconnect the hibernate session, start a hibernate transaction, get the object from the form, populate the object properties from the form fields, and end the transaction. To overwrite (dispatch=overwrite), I think I throw the current hibernate session away, create a new one, load a new object using the objects id (this should get the latest version from the db), start transaction and do the same as the save above. David Erickson wrote: I have done this. Hibernate supports versioning (using a version number column), if you use this Hibernate can make sure the changes are not overwritten. The basic process is: 1. Hibernate session A loads object A1 (with identifier 1234) 2. Hibernate session B loads object B1 (also with identifier 1234) 3. Session A modifies object A1 and saves it 4.

Re: Problems with character conversion [partial solution]
This is probably what you are looking for: http://www.anassina.com/struts/i18n/i18n.html The main point here is it tells the browser that the content is UTF-8 instead of the default Latin-1 encoding. It also includes the filter you used earlier to tell java/servlet that it should expect UTF-8 encoded content from forms. Gus Heck wrote: Well after a little poking around, I discovered that it was the browser's fault. Setting the character encoding that the browser is using allows it to send the character without & escaping it, but then one has to also set the encoding when viewing it later. I am wondering if there is a way to support the full range of characters in unicode without having to set the encoding... The app I am building will not be internationalized, but we may want to store some international names and places in the DB and it would be nice if they could display correctly rather than resorting to anglecized spellings, which might be annoying to some people who's names or addresses will be mis-spelled. Anyone know how to do this? Gus Heck wrote: programs fits because they contain a capital dotted I which looks like this: I.

Re: Unicode text in Property files
You can create and edit the property files saving them in UTF-8. Then you convert the UTF-8 into the format java expects eg \u using the native2ascii program that comes with Java. It will create a new file so the created files are what go into your application, leaving your source files in UTF-8. I use an ANT task to do this for me automatically: Here are the Java Docs for native2ascii: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/tooldocs/solaris/native2ascii.html So this should work native2ascii -encoding UTF-8 file1.source file1.properties Debashish Chakrabarty wrote: Hi, I have a query and request you to kindly spare some time to enlighten me. I am making a web application that would translate words from English to various Indian languages using Struts. The application would not use any database so I must use some flat file to store the translation in form of English_word = Hindi_meaning (name value pair or some other form). There would be 11 Indian languages apart from Hindi. Since Java Property files are used in application localization I was of the opinion that they could easily be used to store this data (for eg. a property file State.propeties might store the names of Indian states in Hindi ex: Delhi= ??). The value is written in Hindi unicode here, a Hindi Unicode font is available here for free download. Important point is: My language data (the value for english keys) would be in Unicode, as above. I understand that the default encoding of the property file is not Unicode. So while saving the property file I will have to save it with UTF-8 encoding. Since struts heavily uses the Property files for internationalization, will it be possible for me to use the files with Unicode text in them. I request your advice on how to use the Property file in such a case (or should I use the normal tab-separated text option as above, with the file,being read using Java I/O API).

Paul Barry wrote:
By using a element, do you mean this:
That doesn't seem to work when the form is multipart/form-data, because the Content-Type header still just has
multipart/form-data. The problem seems to be that when I do a request.getCharacterEncoding(), I get null. Is that
normal? I would think I should at least get the default character encoding for the webapp. I am using Resin 2.1.10.
This might be an issue for me to report to them.
This definately is what is causing my problem, because if I look at the code in
org.apache.struts.upload.CommonsMultipartRequestHandler.addTextParameter(), this is the first thing is does:
try {
value = item.getString(request.getCharacterEncoding());
} catch (Exception e) {
value = item.getString();
}
Since request.getCharacterEncoding() is null, I assume an Exception is being throw an caught (a log.warn() might be nice
there) and then I am get getting the string without decoding it from UTF-8.
If I manually set the characterEncoding to UTF-8 before this code executes (in processMultipart() in the
requestProcessor for example), then everything works fine.
So I guess my question is should I be expecting request.getCharacterEncoding() to return null or is there a bug in my
app server?
Nope, it is not a bug. The browser hasn't set the encoding, so the
method returns null to indicate this.
Here is the relevant section from Java™ Servlet Specification Version
2.3 (servlet-2_3-fcs-spec.pdf)
"SRV.4.9 Request data encoding
Currently, many browsers do not send a char encoding qualifier with the
Content-Type header, leaving open the determination of the character
encoding for reading HTTP requests. The default encoding of a request
the container uses to create the request reader and parse POST data must
be “ISO-8859-1”, if none has been specified by the client request.
However, in order to indicate to the developer in this case the failure
of the client to send a character encoding, the container returns null
from the getCharacterEncoding method.
If the client hasn’t set character encoding and the request data is
encoded with a different encoding than the default as described above,
breakage can occur. To remedy this situation, a new method
setCharacterEncoding(String enc) has been added to the ServletRequest
interface. Developers can override the character encoding supplied by
the container by calling this method. It must be called prior to parsing
any post data or reading any input from the request. Calling this method
once data has been read will not affect the encoding."

In Struts 1.1, the default file upload mechanism *is* Commons FileUpload.

It seems that you may have omitted to tell the browser explicitly that your
pages are in UTF-8. For some reason that I've never fully understood, that
causes the browser to use UTF-8 when it submits subsequent requests from
that page. Make sure that you use a element in your to specify
UTF-8.

"Paul Barry" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I think you are correct. When I was looking at the packets and seeing two
characters, it is actually the characters
that are equal to the 2 bytes that make up the single UTF-8 character. I
thought the browser was somehow not correctly
encoding my data, because it was turning 1 character into 2 characters,
but actually it is UTF-8 encoding my character
correctly. So I think if I use something to read the data and convert it
from UTF-8 to Unicode, I will get the correct
data on the server.
So from reading the documentation about FileUpload, that seems to be the
way to go, but now my question is how to
integrate FileUpload with struts? My thought would be to call a method to
populate an ActionForm in the beginning of my
action, and then use that ActionForm instead of the one I get from the
requestProcessor. So like this:
public ActionForward execute(
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm pform,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws Exception {
TestActionForm form = getFormUsingFileUpload(request);
log.info("The value is: "+form.getTest());
return null;

Re: & internationalization
Normally I have an action that prepares data that initialises the form with default information. This action will get the information from the message resources (using the chosen locale), puts them into a LabelValueBean and put those beans into a List.

Re: sorting and searching in Struts/tiles
I have included a quick example of doing this by using a list of
hashmaps. The hashmap holds the text that may appear in the pulldown.
list = new ArrayList();
for (Iterator i = myObjects.iterator(); i.hasNext();) {
Map map=new HashMap();
map.put("firstName","Joe");
map.put("lastName","Smith");
map.put("fullName","Joe Smith");
map.put("someOtherField","blue");
list.add(map);
}
to sort the list we use can do this:
Collections.sort(list, new BeanComparator("lastName"));
(this uses the BeanComparator from here
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils.html)
This will sort ascending by default, so to get decending I can do this
afterwards...
Collections.reverse(list);

For searching, I am thinking to use hashtable, but have no idea

I use the EJB as back-end and has not implemented it yet.

Re: Charset Encoding problems with JSP Fragments (Tiles)
I have had a similar experience with Tomcat 4.1.*. Though I seem to
remember that putting this
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%>
In the tiles layout page worked if Tomcat compiled the pages. But if I
pre-compiled the jsp tiles it wouldn't work.
My guess was that when pre-compiling each page is given to the compiler
and the content type is read from the page, but if it is included when
Tomcat compiles a page it takes the content type from the parent page.
That means to pre-compile I have had to add <%@ page
contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%> to every jsp page. So normally
I have this at to top of each page:
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%>
<%@ include file="/WEB-INF/jsp/include/global.jsp" %>
and I stick everything else that is needed on everypage into global.jsp
- such as taglibs. Putting the content type into global didn't work
when pre-compiling either.

Re: Problem when uploading text with paragraphs
This probably isn't a struts problem if I am guessing correctly... I assume that the problem is you enter text into the textarea and have several new lines eg paragraph number 1 with some text that might wrap at the edge of the textarea paragraph number 2 with some different text paragraph number 3 to end the textarea This gets stored in MySql, but when the text is redisplayed on the HTML page it appears like this: paragraph number 1 with some text that might wrap at the edge of the textarea paragraph number 2 with some different text paragraph number 3 to end the textarea eg missing the line breaks. To fix this the developer needs to do a search and replace on the text looking for /n (the newline character) and replacing it with the html line break. You only want to do this when displaying the text, not when you put it into the database. If you wanted to edit this text again it would have tags instead of newlines which would look bad. Also if you use something like to write out the text it will try to escape the characters, meaning the will change into <br/> and not work as line breaks. I use this taglib http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/string-doc/intro.html for doing the replace in the JSP page after the html has been escaped. I use it with JSTL eg but you might be able to use it like this (if using struts tags): Catalin :: Braescu wrote: I am not the developer but rather the internal client who asks a colleague developer deliver some feature and the developer can't find the solution. Anyway, we have a blog application written in Struts. The user inputs some text, consisting of more than one paragraph. The submit is done using textarea from Struts, not from HTML (I can't explain better, I am not the developer, but I am sure you understand what I mean). Unfortunately at this stage all formating of text (most important paragraph markings) is cleared away; within Mysql the text is one single chunk. There must be a solution to upload text corectly into a database using Struts, so if there are any paragraphs they are preserved during submit. Any hints?

This seems like a good idea, but I think it would prevent the country

browser?! Can chain.doFilter() send the request to an action other than
what was initially invoked by the browser?
Yes, the filter catches the request before it is passed to the servlet
so you can do pretty much anything you like including sending the
request to a different action. But the redirect is usually server side,
so the browser would see the original URL.
So the problem comes back to getting the links to include the country code.
Here are 2 ways...
1. (probably involves the most work) Create some new JSP tags using the
Struts tags a base. You need to do almost the same thing but insert
that country code at the start of the link. Then you can use
some text,
which would create a link with url '/US/crafts/crafts.do'
2. (this might work staight off, and doesn't look too bad) Using JSTL
and the Struts-EL tags...
some
text
Though i think struts puts the locale into the session under the name
|'org.apache.struts.action.LOCALE', so you might| need to put a copy (in
your filter)
into session under a shorter name - or even just the country code that
you are using. Eg put into session as 'urlprefix' and
The only thing you are losing here is you are not linking to the action
name ('crafts/crafts'), you have to link to the url name
'crafts/crafts.do'. So if you changed the servlet mapping from '*.do'
to '/do' you would have to change the links.

Jason Lea wrote:

Set up your action mappings in struts-config.xml without the domain
prefix eg
/index.do
/crafts/crafts.do
Then in your filter you can check for the locale prefix and set the

locale prefix and forward to the remainder of the path
eg request is /de/index.do --> redirect to /index.do
Struts will then match this and forward to the correct action.
If the request doesn't contain a matching locale then just let the
request pass through. eg /crafts/crafts.do would be let through
unchanged as the 'crafts. does not match a locale. As the first
request should set the locale, you may not need to include it in any
subsequent requests so .jsps can link to /index.do instead of
/de/index.do
eg
request #1: /de/index.do (filter sets locale to de)
request #2: /crafts/crafts.do (uses locale already set to de)
Hmm, you could even change the filter mapping so it is only invoked
for the locales that you are covering eg
/de/*
/fr/*
Then you won't have to do let through any unmatched locales eg
/crafts/crafts.do would not be checked by the filter, but
/fr/crafts/crafts.do is caught, locale set and redirected to
/crafts/crafts.do

Re: LookupDispatchAction, theory behind it
The HTML/4.01 spec does have something that addresses this, the tag. The problem is browser support. You can supply the 'type' (eg submit, reset, button), a 'value' that is returned as the name/value pair, and the button label is the body of the tag (meaning you can mix images, text, and other formatting tags into the label). You can use it like this: delete item Which is great, but as IE doesn't support it correctly it becomes useless. Other browsers do support it, Mozilla for example. IE's problems include defaulting all tag 'types' to 'button' instead of 'submit', returning the label in the name/value pair and putting all button fields into the request instead of the submit button being activated. So we are stuck with using buttons and LookupDispatchAction. Craig R.

LookupDispatchAction is great for sorting out the appropriate action according to which submit button was clicked, even if those submit buttons have got localized text.

Re: [OT] off topic, but I have a quick JavaScript question please...
If you are not worried about older browsers there is another way to get
tooltips without using JavaScript. Browsers with good HTML4.01 support
will display 'title' attributes as tooltips. Form tags (and lots of
other tags in HTML 4.01) allow you to specify a title.
If you use Struts tags you can use 'titleKey' to look up the key from
the message bundle... eg

Well, the tag would need to be where the function is
called, not where it is defined. The struts tags will execute on the
server side and the JavaScript executes on the client side. When the
JavaScript runs, all the struts tags will have been executed and
converted into text. So, you'd need something like:
function tooltip(message) {
return overlib(message, STICKY, CAPTION, message, CENTER);
}
And somewhere else:

In your function definition, just declare the input parameters and use
those names to refer to them, i.e.:

Re: japanese in form
Try this link http://www.anassina.com/struts/i18n/i18n.html and look item number 7. The form data being submitted might not be being read as Shift_JIS or UTF-8 but instead the default ISO-8859-1 format. You need to set the character encoding of the request before Struts puts the request parameters into your ActionForm. As suggested in the link above, a filter can be used to set the encoding.

Back to the original question... I found a solution and want to validate it:
1. I created a RequestFilter that maps to /*
2. This filter checks to see if request.getServletPath() matches any of the
action paths in struts-config.xml. If so, it forwards to the action.
3. As an added feature, I added a set of allowed extensions to this
filter's init parameters. So far I have .jsp,.html,.asp,.cfm (using .jsp
ensures no one links to them directly, MVC enforced!) - so marketing can
choose what technology they want to convey ;-)
This seems to work great. For example, I have an "advancedSearch" action
defined as follows:
type="org.apache.struts.actions.ForwardAction"
parameter=".advancedSearch"/>
(ForwardAction will eventually be replaces, if necessary, with a real
action). This allows all of the following URLs to work:
http://site.com/do/advancedSearch (works with Struts by default)
http://site.com/advancedSearch
http://site.com/advancedSearch.html + all other extensions listed.
Pretty slick IMO. Please let me know if I'm missing anything.

If there are only a small number of 'marketing' style URLs that are
going to be used, you could do those mappings specifically in the
web.xml and leave everything else to your /do/* mapping
Eg Marketing URLs 'activities', 'contact', 'foo'
/activities/*
/contact/*
/foo/*
everything else
/do/*
Or you could wrap a filter around the /activities/*, /contact/*, /foo/*
mappings and forward to the correct action.

Looking at this I haven't used the value='' attribute before. The
Struts taglib API says
' Value to which this field should be initialized. [Use the
corresponding bean property value] [RT Expr]'
This sounds like it will try to access the method in the form bean to
find the initial value.
If your ${element.value} evaluates to "abc" then it will try to do a
Form.getAbc() for the initial value. I don't think that is what you want.
I think you should be using this:
and in the action that you call to get to this JSP page, you should be
putting in the initial values.

Jason - thanks for your help. I do appreciate it.
This code worked in 1.1 beta and I haven't had a chance to look at it
since then. I have found that the exception I am getting is caused by
Struts via BeanUtils attempting to access a setter on a bean when the
setter method doesn't exist.
I added to the line:
private Properties elementMap = new Properties();
I rechecked the name of the methods and the name in the jsp.
I remember once I had a space between the ( and the parameter and
the parser couldn't find the parameter.
This page lives in a set of pages that all use the same formBean
it is the only page that uses the map. Also the html text control
code lives in a tile. The tile declares itself a form and uses the
correct form.
I'll have to dig in the source I guess.

You can use a map-backed ActionForm eg

public Object getValue(String key) {
return map.get(key);
}
public void setValue(String key, Object value) {
map.put(key, value);

As for the JSP page you need to specify the property values like so:
So if you wanted 3 fields called name, description and quantity you
would use
or create some fields in a loop using JSTL and Struts-EL tags

Re: TreeMap vs html:optionsCollection
I haven't used maps with so I don't know if I
can give you a definite answer on this.
The optionsCollection tag is expecting a collection of objects that it
can call .getLabel() and .getValue() on (by default but it can be
changed with parameters). To get a list of objects from a map you
normally call object.entrySet which you can then iterate over. The
entry set is a set of Map.Entry objects (they have getKey and getValue
methods).
So it looks like the tag is trying to do a .getLabel() on the Map.Entry
object. If the tag does accept maps I would have expected that it knows
about Map.Entry objects.
I normally use List objects with pull-downs instead, like this:
List eventGroups = new ArrayList();
eventGroups.add(new LabelValueBean("Label 1","Value 1"));
eventGroups.add(new LabelValueBean("Label 2","Value 2"));
eventGroups.add(new LabelValueBean("Label 3","Value 3"));
((EventGroupBean)form).setEventGroups( eventGroups );

This would work fine if the JSP compiler wasn't also setting the content type automatically. So do someone know a container setting to do this ? Is there something like a "pre-compiler" for JSP, that would change/add code to each JSP before giving it to the JSP compiler ? Thanks, Yann I had this problem when I pre-compiled my JSPs (Tomcat 4.1.24). If I don't pre-compile then (from memory) they were encoded correctly. I am using tiles, so the layout page set the encoding to UTF-8, then everything else is included into the layout. This might be why it worked, as the encoding was set on the parent JSP it was probably used when compiling the included pages. When pre-compiling the JSPs each page is compiled separately. In this case I think it used the default Latin encoding. I couldn't find a way to forcethe compiler to use a different encoding other than adding <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%> to the top of every JSP page (including it didn't seem to work). -- Jason Lea - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Is nesting Tile layouts possible?
You could try something like this:
Here you have a 'AccountSubSection' definition that overrides the
BaseDef's content with your AccountSubSection layout page
AccountSubSection.jsp. Now for every account page you want to go to,
you just add 1 more definition that extends AccountSubSection.
And to add customer service you would need 1 CustomServiceSubSection
definition (for layout) eg
plus a definition per page
Your AccountSubSection.jsp will need to use the
tag so you can access the attributes.

I could easily set up a layout definition for the above (BaseDef).
However the problem is each of my sub-sections(II. above) in the

For example, imagine the user goes to the "Accounting" section and
the layout of the accounting section has...
ACCOUNTING HEADER
LEFT MENU {accounting page content} RIGHT STATIC INFO COLUMN
but maybe the Customer Service section is slightly different...
CUSTOMER SERVICE HEADER
{customer service page content} RIGHT MENU
Ok one idea that I got help with would work a bit like this:
The above works ok but it requires two definitions for evey page you
want to go even though the "AccountSubSection" definition is basically
the same with just different accountContent.
I've even tried adding "accountContent" as...

having to provide two defintions for every page I'd want to go to?

Re: JSP not displaying data when in Edit Mode
I think that form beans default to session scope. But you specified
scope="request" in /testPage, so that is where the form bean would be
stored. Your /saveTestPage was looking in session scope for the form

You could leave the scope out of both actions and it should still work.

The page is probably rendered as UTF-8, but when the servlet reads the
request parameters it will assume they are the Latin encoding. You need
to set the encoding on the request before the parameters are read by struts.
I have a filter that does this:
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");

I use a filter to catch requests that map to "/" and request my Homepage.do action instead. So I don't have any index.html or index.jsp page at all.

The web container was happy because there was a file there called 'index.do'. Since Struts is mapped to process *.do, the person defined an action called 'index' and struts could do its normal processing, forwarding off to the .jsp in /WEB-INF/.

Re: Hindi i18n Iscii Font
Hi Kiran,
You need to set the character encoding for the JSP page/response. Java
still thinks the response should be in the default encoding which is
ISO-8859-4 (I think that is the Latin character set).
I use UTF-8 encoding so that I can mix languages eg
English/Japanese/French without having to worry about setting the
correct page encoding for each page.
So I do the same thing for the properties files eg
native2ascii -encoding UTF-8 etc etc
But at the top of each of my JSP pages I have this:
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%>
In your case you probably have to change that to charset=ISCII91 if use
that encoding.
You can put this in your base action so you don't have to include in
every page eg response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8").
[Note: JSP Precompilation:
The only problem I had with setting the content type in the action was
when precompiling JSP pages. If there this line
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%>
isn't in the JSP page or page fragment then Jasper would use the default
encoding instead of UTF-8.]
You will also need to set the character encoding on any request that
submits data otherwise it will also be interpretted as ISO-8859-4. I
use a filter an all request that just does this:
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
(again change this to your character encoding ISCII91)
This can't be done in an action because form beans are populated before
they are given to the action. So you have a choice of using a filter,
or overriding the RequestProcessor to do this.
Hope this helps.

is one reason
I am asking).
So I guess I have a few questions then:
1. Shouldn't I worry about (and defend against) which request methods
types (GET, POST, etc.) can make it to which actions?
2. If so, does Struts have a built in mechanism like
path="/whatever" requestMethod="POST"> or if not
3. Should I be doing something like this at the top of my execute()
method:
if( ! "POST" == request.getMethod() ){ return
mapping.findForward("failure"); } for Actions which should require a POST
only
With #1 I mean should it matter if someone can go to the URL field in the
browser and type in all the field / value pairs for a form
and hit enter (I am thinking it does matter) compared to HAVING to do a POST
for it to succeed?
I am just thinking back to the Servlet programming days when you put the
form submittal handling code in the doPost() and the
other code in the doGet() methods.
Any thoughts on this?

This is really a simple aside, but is there a way to have the text

Yes and no.
The HTML 4.0.1 standard allows you to specify a tag which does
this but IE doesn't support it properly. Mozilla supports it correctly
though. I have only checked with IE6 and Mozilla 1.3/1.4.
The button tag can even include different styles and images on the button eg
this is a
button, click me
Problems I found with IE's support of the button tag:
1. The default type should be 'submit' from the standard, but IE treats
it as 'button' so it doesn't cause the form to submit. Fixed by adding
the type="submit" to the tag
2. (the problem that stops me using it) If you have more than 1 button
tag in your form all the button values will be included when the form
submits - which makes it useless.
Eg if i have the following buttons:
update me
delete me
I click the 'update me' button, IE will submit the following values
method=update&method=delete, when it should only send method=update.
check out the spec here:

Re: Refreshing Issue.
Hi Anurag,
Sounds like that when you reset the parameters are being resent, so the
action 'add' action is being called again.
Struts has a way of dealing with this situation with a token stored in
the submit form, here is a link to an earlier thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg68432.html
Apparently there is an example of its use in struts-example.war

Thanks Jason. I'll have to try some of this. The problem with the above
though is what do i substitute in for "aCode" that represents "key". The
keys can be different obviously as the iterations take place.
So then looking at the html:text tag documentation we see for 'property':
"Name of this input field, and the name of the corresponding bean
property if value is not specified. The corresponding bean property (if
any) must be of type String."
This means the value of 'property' will be the name of the text input
field - this is the bit we want to become name="fooMap['aCode'].someCode".
The other importent part is the 'indexed' property:
"Valid only inside of logic:iterate tag.
Actually this seemed to also work within the JSTL foreach loop.
If true then name of the html
tag will be rendered as "id[34].propertyName". Number in brackets will
be generated for every iteration and taken from ancestor logic:iterate tag."
You are using JSTL and have not created a logic:iterate tag so the index
isn't going to be generated for you. You could switch to using
logic:iterate and I think the tags figure out what to call themselves eg
someCode:
I tried the above but it complained that it couldn't find my map (fooMap
in the above example).
Are you using the html:form tag? All of these tags should be inside one
so they know what formBean to use.
or use the tags, which would be something like:
someCode:
If you want to use JSTL, you probably have to generate the property name
yourself:
someCode:
someDescrip:
With the above I end up with the error:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: An error occurred while evaluating
custom action attribute "property" with value
"departments['${beanInMap.deptCode}'].deptCode": Unable to find a value
for "deptCode" in object of class "java.util.HashMap$Entry" using

Ahh, yes. That now triggers something I read a while ago. When JSTL
gets something out of a map it will be of the type java.util.Map.Entry
so perhaps try
Code:
Name:
You will have to use the to evaluate the ${beanInMap.key}
(at least I hope it tries to evaluate it that way). If you use
then it will just treat it as text, essentially looking up
the departments map with '${beanInMap.key}' instead of the actual key.
the syntax looks like:
Code:
Name:
I've tried all kinds of other combos also and still stumped.

What do you mean "So why another realm?"? Are you asking: 1. Do you have to define more than 1 realm?

You can define these in , , or with each scope overriding the one above so that a web app will only see 1 realm.

Re: [OT] SecurityFilter Question was RE: Looking for ideas for action servlet checking for logged in user.
Hi Shane,
Looks fine to me :)
I also had a similar thought in the beginning to create my own Principal
object so I could store all sorts of app specific info when the user
authenticates. It seemed to make sense until I started trying to write
my own. There are also some disadvantages as you can't easily switch
realms eg switch to use Tomcat's JNDI Realm instead of JDBC Realm. In
each case I would have to write my own implementation so MyPrincipal
object was returned.
In the end it was a lot of work and I came up with a better solution:
I use the standard Tomcat JDBC/JNDI Realms for authentication, so this
is very portable. Then your application just has to figure out when a
user has logged in for the first time.
When user authenticates use a filter or have all of your actions extend
a BaseAction that checks for the login and puts the extra info into a
User object and store that in a session scope.
The standard realm only accesses the database when you authenticate and
it collects the list of roles and populates the GenericPrincipal. So it
is quite efficient in that manner.
I hope this will be portable across web containers - I just have to plug
in a new Realm from the other container.

The other problem you normally encounter is creating a few objects that
you want in your session after a user logs in eg get user's name, email,
phone number etc throw it into a User object and store it in the session
so you can refer to it later.
There are a couple of choices...
1. Create a BaseAction class that all of your other Actions extend
2. Use a Filter
The process is the same for each:
a. Check to see if request.getUserPrincipal() is not null. If null, the
user has not been authenticated
b. If the user has been authenticated check to see if you have defined a
session variable eg session.getAttribute("USER_LOGGED_IN")
c. If it hasn't been defined, then this is a newly logged in user and
you can do your initialisation stuff, record the login etc and store
something in our session variable session.setAttribute("USER_LOGGED_IN",
Obj)
If you want to log the user out you can use session.invalidate()

Did you mention having to change Tomcat to get it to use your JDBC
realm? I'm not sure quite what you mean, but yes I suppose if you have a
complex realm module and you're not going to use container-managed
security, I guess filters or constraints would be just as good.

You should be able to add the dispatch name to the action in the link tag:
I don't think you need the '.do' on the action either (the tag can match
the correct action without it) so this should work:
Of course you might have trouble with this sort of link because the

a localised key. I define two keys for each method eg
protected Map getKeyMethodMap() {
Map map = new HashMap();

map.put("global.action.internal.edit", "edit");
map.put("button.list", "list");
map.put("button.edit", "edit");
return map;
}
The global.action.internal.* keys are only defined in my
application.properties file so I can create standard links like the one
above. The button.* keys are defined application.properties and also
the other locales (eg application_ja.properties) so my buttons can show
the localised name and still call the correct method.

I have a webapp which have several pages which require the user to be logged in(have a httpSession with a "usercontainer" object stored) , and a few pages that doesn't require a log in(the log-in page, references, indexes...). All pages are fronted by actions. My current solution is to check for valid login in every action class that needs to protect its invocation. That seems tedious. I though about extending the action servlet to do it, but then it would check for all requests. And I do want to distinguish between if the user is authorized(isUSerInRole) and if he/she is even logged in, so I can't use the role parameter in the action element. My next idea is extending the action servlet pluss adding parameters that can go into the action element in the struts-config.xml file. (some thing like usersession="true"> ) This would require my action servlet to know about my userContainer stored in the httpsession. Pluss modifying the struts-config file. I haven't looked into how hard this is, figure I'd ask someone who's run into this before. Any other good approaches, or should I just stick with what I got?(check individually in every action) Yes. So far so good. One possible improvement is that you put all of the checking codes into a base class of your action classes. Then you extend the action mapping to provide additional attributes that allow the checking codes to configure themselves dynamically for the corresponding actions, e.g. the usersession attribute. thanks, Henrik Bentel Jing - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** This electronic mail transmission contains confidential and/or privileged information intended only for the person(s) named.

Re: A question on Tiles and Frames
If you want to use frames then each frame is going to issue it's own request. If you want to hide the JSPs under WEB-INF, then you have to front each request with an action because you can't link to the JSP directly. It probably means replacing your definition with: and adding an action mapping to struts-config.xml for each of the items: and then another definition in tiles-def.xml: Have to repeat that for code, menu, button, text. So then if a real action wanted to change both code and menu frames, you can create a definition that extends the first definition: I'm not sure if this will work - as it is 2am here and I am about to go to bed :) But it looks ok to my half-closed eyes Jeff Kyser wrote: Hello, I was trying to use a Tile Definition like: with a framesetLayout.jsp that looks like: " name="heading" scrolling="NO" noresize> " name="code"> " name="menu"> " name="button" noresize/> " name="text" noresize/> but I get Forbidden errors, presumably because my JSPs are beneath the WEB-INF directory and therefore not accessible.

I have request.setAttribute("userList", userListBean); string in execute()

My Action class works well without tiles - it returns a bean to users.jsp
and I see the users list.
I'm wandering if I'm using DoFirst action forward class in a right way?
Maybe because of this "additional" forwarding all the objects in request
disappear?
The definitions and forwarding look correct, but the DoFirst.java code
you posted only had a perform() method, and no execute() method. And
the code you posted for DoFirst.java doesn't add the bean to the request.
When you access /usersAdm.do, Struts will match that request to the path
"/userAdm" in struts-config.xml. Struts will then call the perform() or
execute() method of com.name.wos.struts.common.DoFirst.
From the code you posted, DoFirst.java will just return a forward
called "success". Struts will then match that to the path "usersPage",
which matches the tiles definition "usersPage" in tiles-def.xml.
Nowhere in that process was a bean added to the request. You must have
a different class file which does that somewhere.

Re: Tiles question
Hi,
The action DoFirst.java isn't putting the userList bean into the request.
It should be doing something like
request.setAttribute("userList", userListBean);
It is also using the 'perform()' method, if you are using the latest
struts then you should be using the 'execute()' method instead.
