Checkbox problem still not fixed :(
Hi everyone. I've tried just about everything in the mail archive but can't get check/multi boxes to perform how I want to. I use an iterate tag over a collection, basically on my jsp page I have as follows form blah hidden name="pk" blah checkbox property="member" /form In my form bean I have an array pk[] and another member[]. In the reset method I do: for(int i = 0;imember.length;i++) member[i] = "false"; When I check the values off the form in my action class, i still only get the values set to true. I need a long list, true, false, true, true etc for all the values. Sorry to be a pain but can someone give me some sort of 'exact' steps to solve the problem? I haven't been able to piece together all the help on the mail archive. Thanks, Joel [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi! I had a similar problem and solved it by changing the attribute scope in my action in the struts-config.xml file to request instead of session. /Linnéa - Original Message - From: Joel Vogt To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 28, 2001 10:04 AM Subject: Checkbox problem still not fixed :( Hi everyone.

Re: Checkbox problem still not fixed :(
Hi all,
I've worked on it a bit more and come up with these
steps to make it work.
I use a multibox instead of a checkbox like this on
my form:
html:multibox name="model" property="member"
value="yes"/
I then also include with this a hidden
field
html:hidden name="model" property="member"
value="no"/
The form bean remains the same.
In my action class, I can then get the required
values by looping like this
int j =
0; for (int i = 0;
imember.length;i++)
{ if
(member[j].equals("yes"))
{ // This person is a
member so do required
events;
j+=1;
}
else// this
person is marked to not be a member
j+=1; }
This works because if the multibox was checked to
true, there will be two values for each user, a true for the multibox and then
the no from the hidden field.
If the multibox is not checked then we only get one
entry, a no from the hidden field.
To me this is a bit ineligant. Sure it works,
but...
Any other solutions?
Btw Thanks to all the people offering help on this,
it seems struts has a good community going.
Joel.
