Re: Dynamically set the 'value' attribute of html:text element...??
Not tested but shuld be close to: bean:define id=pp name=customer property=firstName scope=session/ html:text property=firstName value=%=pp%/ Adolfo.

Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2002 17:43:21 +0100 Hi, I'm new to struts development so this should be a no-brainer for someone... I have an object in the session and i need to access the object to set the 'value' attribute of a html:text element. I can set the value of an ordinary html input tag using the bean:write tag as follows... input type=text name=firstName value=bean:write name=customer property=firstName scope=session/ ...but i can't use the same approach to set the 'value' attribute of a html:text tag as it requires putting one tag-lib tag inside the other... html:text property=firstName value=bean:write name=customer property=firstName scope=session// is there a simple way of doing this?

Re: Dynamically set the 'value' attribute of html:text element...??
John - what are you actually trying to do here? My guess is that you're trying to pre-load the form with values you already have (probably obtained from JDBC or some such). That being the case, you should really take a look at how forms can use formbeans. A really good read for someone learning Struts is Chuck Cavaness' book review on theserverside.com: http://www.theserverside.com/resources/strutsreview.jsp That should de-newbiefy you pretty quick. Give it a quick once-over and then you can reference back to a given section as needed. John Sherlock wrote: Hi, I'm new to struts development so this should be a no-brainer for someone...
