hidden property null
hi! i have a value in request scope that i would like to pass on to an action, called when you submit a form on the page, i accessed the value on the page as % String tableName = request.getParameter(tableName); % and correctly retrieved the value. in my form then i initialized a hidden property to this value, as html:form action=/editTable html:hidden property=tableName value=%=tableName%/ now when the form is submitted, in my action class when i retrieve the tableName property from the associated bean, i get the null value. i put a print statement in the setTableName method for form bean, and it seems that just before the form is submitted, tableName is set to null. can someone tell me why this is happening, and how do i workaround it. thanks Ajay _ Get less junk mail with ninemsn Premium.

map backed forms: performing validation
hi!
i need to allow a user to enter data into a database through a form. However
i dont know beforehand what the table structure will be. Looking around, the
solution seems to be to use map backed forms.
What i would like to know is how do you perform error checking, bounds
checking etc in such a case.
if you are going something like,
%
Map m = (Map)request.getAttribute(FORM_MAP);
Set s = m.keySet();
Iterator iterator = s.iterator();
%
% while (iterator.hasNext()){
String key= (String)iterator.next();
String fieldValue=field(+key+);
%
TR
TD%=key%/TD
TDhtml:text property=%=fieldValue%
/html:text/TD
you dont know what the field is, and what are valid values for the field. if
the field happens to be for a phone number, how would you test whether the
field contained only numbers. Also how would you set a 'maxlength' on the
html:text tag?
As a more general question, in an application where you dont know what the
database structure will be (dynamic fields) how and where would you check
and validate form submissions?
So far the only way i have come up with is, to execute a Describe table
query, get the field attributes and then have a whole bunch of if statements
that check if the field is of type varchar, int, float etc and once i have
that, check the submitted form values and see if they have the same type. A
rather clumsy way.
if someone has any clues or has solved this before, please do reply.
thanks
Ajay

Re: error:null property value please HELP
hi!
'functions' is the name of the tree structure in the form class, as
class SomeForm extends ActionForm
{ private TreeStructure functions;}
this form class also includes some String attributes. The whole display
works fine, i have some text boxes for the String fields in the form, the
tree structure gets displayed with the corresponding checkboxes. the problem
arises when i select a particular checkbox and submit. thats when i get the
error i mentioned earlier.
however if i just fill the text boxes and do not select and checkbox the
form submits fine.
any clues?
thanks

Hi Ajay
I am doing something similar... I have a Tree class and a Node class to
represent either branches or leaves of the tree.
The Tree class has a field called treeRoot that represents the root Node.
I ha ve an action that creates the tree and puts it on the request
then in the JSP I have something like:
%-- Loop through the array list of trees to display each root
node.
Note that 'myTree' was placed on the request by an Action --%
logic:present name=myTree
nested:root name=currentTree
nested:nest property=treeRoot
div class=root
jsp:include page=treenode.jsp
/
/div
/nested:nest
/nested:root
/logic:present
Actually my jsp is slightly different because I can have multiple root
nodes and I also iterate through each root node to display each tree. I
have chopped those bits out to make the code more readable.
So it seems that you are trying to reference a field functions that
isn't declared in your tree class.
Hope that helps.

Seems Apache is not as well thought of as MS. Or so was my experience. so i'm surprised to learn that Accenture uses Struts all the time. but with CIO's from my experience, most of them belong to another era and just have difficulty coming to terms with how stuff is done today, and having no clue of that, they just content themselves with raising as many hurdles as possible.

Re: Login Security
hi!
you could have an exponential backoff period, where rather than blocking a
person (there's a genuine chance you forgot the password and are trying five
combinations or so) you disable the account for a period of time which is
proportional to the number of tries the user has made.
An exponential relationship between the number of tries and the time
disabled would be best.
so if someone is trying a dictionary attack then with the number of tries
increasing the account will be suspended for longer periods.
In terms of implementing it, yes i suppose you will need an extra field to
record the time when the account will next be active.
security is ofcourse relative. you may go for salts when storing passwords,
but that depends on you application and its threat model.
but i agree, to prevent someone from maliciously blocking another person's
account, you should have a mechanism of maybe storing ip addresses, (though
a malicious user could spoof these).

Re: ui generation
hi! thanks for the reply James. i should probably clarify myself. This thing i am building is like a webpage builder, you choose everything and the person should then get a resulting html file, which he should be able to download. so how do you convert the jsp (resulting from the choices he made) to html? Say when i make a request for a jsp page, the server processes the request and what gets outputted to my browser is html. How can i force that to happen and pipe the output to a file? with regards to tiles, it sounds like a good way of doing things and i am still looking for something like this that has been done before.

We're doing something pretty similar here, but not using the Tiles stuff (for now anyway). Basically, we have user selectable themes, which write the appropriate css file to the page. There are *some* user definable colours, fonts etc, the values of which are pulled from the DB on login, stored in the session, and written to the page as styles that override the default, or user selected css theme file. my questions are: 1 is it possible for me to generate a jsp page using struts tags, feed that to a parser and get the resulting html, like what would happen if i made a regular jsp/struts page and then a user clicks on it, and the page is processed and html spewed to the user's browser. How do i make that happen from within a page. ie, in one page a user selects all these layouts etc and clicks some generate button and a file with the resulting html gets stored somewhere on the server which the user can then download. I'd assume that you would want a variety of layouts such as top/left/right navigation, one/two/three column body etc. We do something similar where a user has selectable templates for layout as well as the themes. We simply have jsps for each template, and dependant on the user requesting the page the Action redirects to the appropriate template. At the moment, most of the relevant content is split into smaller jsp fragments, and incuded on the template pages, so that we don't need to rewrite the view in multiple places. We also intend to have customisable content (a-la Yahoo portal), where the template simply checks which content is required for the user, and includes the relevant page fragments where necessary. 2 can i dynamically write a tile definitions.xml, depending on the layout and the components chosen and have that fed to the parser from q1. ... i'm also keen to know whether we can do something like this with Tiles, but I have no experience of using them just yet. Has anyone else has success doing custom UI generation with Tiles, possibly pulling the layout definition from a DB? There surely must be something that does this out of the box already, no?

design question
hi! i have the following scenario. server0 - has a jsp page, that allows user to enter the goods they want etc, say foo.jsp server1-jsp payment page, say bar.jsp and action class CommAction on clicking done on foo.jsp, this should establish a connection with CommAction class on server1, perform some identity exchange, based on the exchange, route to bar.jsp i came up with [server0] foo.jsp -FooForm -FooAction [server1] bar.jsp -BarForm -BarAction i have java classes to establish a secure communication between two parties. what i want to do now is, have some way of FooAction (on successful return from the underlying comm establishing class) to direct the person to BarAction along with the information they submitted orginally. in other words how can i conditionally submit a form to another action class on some other server. I ofcourse want the form to be submitted to the local action class, that first checks it, then resubmits to a remote action class, the remote action class then forwards the user to a page on its own remote server. sorry if the above sounds too cryptic. any help would be greatly welcome thanks cheers ajay _ Hot chart ringtones and polyphonics.

Re: design question
hi all! would anyone in the spirit of diwali like to help me on this one. how do i direct a form submission to a remote action class, after having fthe form submitted to a local action class first. ie, communicate between two action classes, one of which is on a remote machine. I am looking at sending a URL object with the form data from the local to the remote class, but then depending upon the remote class's response i want to forward the user to a page on the remote machine. Its like a payment system, you select your good at an e-comm website, then click pay. This then transfers you to a payment page located on a payment gateway site. Before the transfer i will have a security session establishment. This is being handled by two Java classes, one on each end. so when the user clicks pay, the following two things happen: - establish secure session - send form data across. I have the first figured out, how do i implement the second? please help.

struts security
hi! i need to implement the following security features in my security application. authentication which is better - have a login page and keep some sort of bean in session on successful login and check for the ban in every action(and have no direct links) OR use realms, define user roles etc (i have only 2 classes of users at the moment, the max number will be 4) confidentiality - should i implement my own encryption protocol, like a function that takes a string, gets a symmetric key(or private key if using public key encryption) and encrypt and send the data integrity - again what should be my approach? non-repudiation - digital signatures prevent replay attacks - ??? how do i support ssl in struts? any pointers and references would be most welcome thanks ajay _ Hot chart ringtones and polyphonics.

Re: URGENT: html:options
hi!
thanks for the reply.
doesn't the jsp import statement followed by the usebean ie,
%@ page import=MyUtils %
jsp:useBean id=agencyIds type=java.util.Vector /
introduce the agencyIds into page scope.
also with the example you gave me should
html:select property=agencyId
html:options collection=agencyIds
label=label
value=value /
/html:select
shouldn't the value of collections be items, since that is the key you used.
thanks

collection attribute of html:options tag is used to set the name of a
bean (in some scope) that is a collection of the
items off the select-box.
You need to put your Vector into page or request scope to use this tag:
%
request.setAttribute(items, agencyIds);
%
html:select property=agencyId
html:options collection=agencyIds
label=label
value=value /
/html:select

And i do not particularly want to put all the Agency reading bit into ClientAction. I could use a separate Java class, but i have an action DisplayAgency that reads all the agencies from the database, adds them to a User bean, puts this in session context and later the page this action forwards to uses logic:iterate to move through the collection in the User bean and display it. Having another Java class to read only the id's and put them in a collection and place this in sesision seems like duplicatng an existing task(with sme minor differences) are there any other ways of doing this? thanks cheers ajay _ Chat via SMS.

hi! thanks for that. no the values are not application wide, they may change depending on the sequence of user actions. LabelValueBean sounds like an excellent idea thanks cheers ajay From: Jeff Kyser [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: html:options Date: Sun, 12 Oct 2003 09:51:17 -0500 name/value pairs from a database are handled nicely in a list of LabelValueBeans. I'd pull the code to load that list from the database out into a model class, or perhaps into a Singleton loaded by an InitServlet (at startup - if the contents weren't changing, or were at least application-wide) Then let your actions access the application-scoped AgencyList instead of doing the work themselves. And you can iterate the AgencyList in your JSPs, dealing with both names and values, or just values - whatever you want. -jeff On Sunday, October 12, 2003, at 09:33 AM, ajay brar wrote: hi! i have the following scenario in my database i have an Agency table(which includes the attribute AGENCY_ID) and a Client tables(which includes a AGENCY_ID that maps to the id in the Agency table) agencies are created first through a web interface. after that you create Clients. what i want is that when you are filling in the details for the client, i want a drop down list that includes the AGENCY_ID of all agencies that are in the database. so the person fiiling in the info can select a particular AGENCY_ID for that client) right now in my ClientForm, i have an int agencyId. i want this populated on the basis of the selection made form the drop down list. how do i do this? any suggestions? i'm thinking of reading all agencies, chucking them into a collection, placing the collection in the session context and then reading off it in the jsp page using html:options The downside to that is that my ClientAction forwrads to client.jsp(where you add client details).

Re: action class for more than one mapping
hi!
thanks for that michael.
i am running Tomcat 4.1.24 and using struts 1,1
the url is reasonable and what i expect it to be. It incudes the jsessionid
string, but then it includes the same for the first link, which works fine.
I have had this problem for a while on my hosting service'e webserver. At
home on my Tomcat5.0, the apps works fine. However when i upload them to the
account, some of the apps work and others dont.
this happens with the .do links.
I have installed the app under the context root /test-struts
and within this context, i have only the application described before. ii'm
getting the Multiple Choices error only because i also have a file called
tour.htm which both links are supposed to forward to and so i get an error
saying
The document name you requested (/test-struts/tour.do) could not be found on
this server. However, we found documents with names similar to the one you
requested.
Available documents:
* /test-struts/tour.htm (common basename)
if i change the path to /testing, and change the link to testing.do, i get a
file not found error.
MenuAction consists only of
public final class MenuAction extends Action
{
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws
IOException
{
return mapping.findForward(success);
}
}
and thus forwards regardless. I wrote this as a test application to find out
what was causing the problem. as it is, i'm nowhere near finding out.
any more ideas would be excellent
my app is at
www.ajaybrar.net/test-struts
thanks
cheers

Ajay,
Yes, you can definitely have multiple action mappings defined for a
particular action class. The snippet of struts-config.xml you give below
appears correct, as do the html:link tags on the page.
I would try a few things:
A) Make sure the URL that is getting written to the browser is reasonable.
It should be, but double-check. That will remove any doubts about the
html:link tags.
B) Find out what happens if you change the action path for /tour. If it
fixes your problem there is something else mapped to xxx/tour.do, either in
your web.xml or in your server configuration (are you in the default
context
and there is another web application defined at /tour?).
C) Finally, if the logic is different inside MenuAction for /menu vs.
/tour, make sure the logic isn't causing the problem, (e.g. is it
forwarding to somewhere else that has a potential duplicate context issue
as
described above?) Also, check out your app server or web server logs and
find out what resource is actually giving the 300 server error.
It would help to know what application server you're running, as well as
the
version of Struts.

Available documents: /cinv3/agency.jsp (common basename) Please consider informing the owner of the referring page about the broken link. is this something to do with my server setting. similarly, if i have links that with *.do, these give the same error. i thought that maybe the server isn't calling the ActionServlet, but my forms work fine(on submit, the appropriate action is called), my view components(i have an instance of ActionServlet mapped to *.view) also work fine. could someone please help. thanks ajay From: Max Cooper [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Struts Users Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: data disappearing in jsp Date: Mon, 6 Oct 2003 16:53:14 -0700 If the missing fields are display-only, you might need to add hidden fields to carry their values along in the request when the page is submitted so that they will be available on a validation error. reset() is called before the ActionForm is populated with the values from the request, so I don't think it matters what you do to them there. As long as they are in the request (and the names in the HTML form match your ActionForm), they should be populated in the ActionForm when a validation error occurs. -Max - Original Message - From: krishnamohan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 06, 2003 6:10 AM Subject: data disappearing in jsp Hi, In my jsp page I have 5 fields out of which 2 fields are required. When the jsp is submitted I am displaying the error messages for the required fields using Action Error in the form bean's validate method. When the jsp page is displayed with the error messages, the data for the remaining 3 fields is disappearing. Can anyone let me know why this is happening. In the reset method all the fields are made to null.

Please HELP 300 Multiple choices
hi! i'm getting a HTTP 300 Multiple choices response when i try to run my application. I have had this problem for a while now, and it comes when i have a link like html:link page=/agency.doagency/html:link i then get an error, that agency.do does not exist or if there is an agency.jsp i get the multiple choices error. i thought the error might be something to do with the server setting, since this works at home and only gives an error on my hosting service's server. But struts-example.war(which cmes with struts) works fine. this seems to happen only if in struts-config.xml, for my link i haven't declared a corresponding ActionForm,(which i dont need anyways) eg i have action path=/agency type=AgencyAction scope=request forward name=success path=/agency.jsp / /action this gives me an error. AgencyAction, basically reads from a database, places a bean in session and then forwards to agency.jsp However other applications, which have a request path that requires a form as well, dont generate this error. so eg: actionpath=/agency type=AgencyAction name=agencyForm scope=request validate=true forward name=success path=/menu.jsp/ /action does not generate the error. the above is from a previous version of the same application that used a form. please help, i have a project due in the next few days and really need help. the code works fine at home the 300 Multiple Choices error, also happens with struts-example.war, however it goes away when i refresh the page. any help would be very much appreciated thanks ajay my web.xml is ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? !DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC -//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.2//EN http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd; web-app !-- Action Servlet Configuration -- servlet servlet-nameaction/servlet-name servlet-classorg.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet/servlet-class init-param param-nameconfig/param-name param-value/WEB-INF/struts-config.xml/param-value /init-param init-param param-namedebug/param-name param-value3/param-value /init-param init-param param-namedetail/param-name param-value3/param-value /init-param load-on-startup2/load-on-startup /servlet !-- Action Servlet Mapping -- servlet-mapping servlet-nameaction/servlet-name url-pattern*.do/url-pattern /servlet-mapping !-- The Welcome File List -- welcome-file-list welcome-filemenu.jsp/welcome-file /welcome-file-list !-- Struts Tag Library Descriptors -- taglib taglib-uri/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld/taglib-uri taglib-location/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld/taglib-location /taglib taglib taglib-uri/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld/taglib-uri taglib-location/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld/taglib-location /taglib taglib taglib-uri/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld/taglib-uri taglib-location/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld/taglib-location /taglib /web-app and my struts-config.xml is ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1 ? !DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC -//Apache Software Foundation//DTD Struts Configuration 1.1//EN http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_1.dtd; struts-config !-- == Form Bean Definitions === -- form-beans !-- Agency form bean -- form-bean name=agencyForm type=AgencyForm/ /form-beans !-- == Global Forward Definitions == -- global-forwards forward name=success path=/menu.jsp/ forward name=error path=/menu.jsp/ /global-forwards !-- == Action Mapping Definitions == -- action-mappings !-- Edit agency -- actionpath=/editAgency type=EditAgencyAction name=agencyForm scope=request validate=false forward name=editSuccess path=/editAgency.jsp/ forward name=deleteSuccesspath=/deleteAgency.do/ /action action path=/agency type=AgencyAction scope=request forward name=success path=/agency.jsp / /action action path=/saveAgency type=SaveAgencyAction name=agencyForm scope=request forward name=successpath=/menu.jsp / /action action path=/deleteAgency type=DeleteAgencyAction scope=request forward name=successpath=/menu.jsp / /action /action-mappings !-- == Controller Configuration -- controller !-- The input parameter on action elements is the name of a local or global forward rather than a module-relative path -- set-property property=inputForward value=true/ /controller !-- == Message Resources Definitions === -- message-resources
