Editing tabular data

2001-05-14 Thread James Howe 

I'm currently in the process of coding a Struts-based JSP page which will 
let my user edit a table of values.  I started out by creating a read-only 
display of values  using the logic:iterate tag and bean:write tags.  The 
object associated with the iterate tag answers a collection of beans and I 
have several bean:write tags which are used to display the properties of 
the bean.  It looks something like this:

logic:iterate id=bean name=beanCollector property=beanCollection
tr
td width=70bean:write name=bean property=prop1 filter=false//td
td width=70bean:write name=bean property=prop2 filter=false//td
[ more attributes ...]
/tr
/logic:iterate

I'm now somewhat at a loss as to how to construct a screen which will let 
the user update any and all fields in the table and save them.  Can anybody 
provide and example of how I might go about building a page which can edit 
a table of information?

Thanks.
