Re: Form Submission
with right now gives some add on features over struts. Basically taken from StrutsEJB framework. We are using Map Based DTOs to transfer data from view layer to model layer and other way round. We are also using the feature of Command Files. I will explain it what it is for people unaware of StrutsEJB framework. In Struts we are supposed to mention the Action Class in the struts-config.xml. And from the Action class we generally call some java programs (say command files) to access the model layer basically to avoid keeping business logic in Action Classes. But in my framework we just need to mention the Command file name in struts-config.xml instead of Action classes. There is only one action class that is DefaultAction class which handles all the requests and diverts the program control to the command file. I will give here one typical entry in my struts-config.xml for your reference. action path=/CreateUser type=framework.common.web.DefaultAction name=UserForm scope=request input = /CreateUser.jsp parameter=app.cmd.CreateUserCmd forward name=Success path = /UserSucc.jsp / /action in the above action tag the attribute parameter is the name of the command file where i would like my control to go after the form gets submitted. Now the problem is in the Command File CreateUserCmd where i would keep my business logic -- i dont have the request object. so i cant do a request.getParameter(.); here. the way i get values from forms is like this. if I have this code in JSP html:text property=dto(txtUsname) styleClass=listItem size=14 / I will have to write the following code in my command file to get the value of User Name String UserName = (String)paramDTO.get(txtUsName); As Mark/Wendy were asking me why i cant use JavaScript is because whenever i use something like this in JavaScript I get javascript error at runtime document.UserForm.dto(txtUsName).value = val; document.UserForm.submit(); This is obvious because whenever javascript parses something like dto(txtUsName) it takes it as a function call.

Re: Form Submission
Hi Avinash: I have not followed your description very carefully - my eyes started glazing over about mid-way..;) - but here's a thought (and I'm only going by what i remember of your original question, so forgive me if I misspeak..): If you do not have access to the request object, do you at least have access to the session? In which case how about putting the user in a session variable (maybe right after logon) and then you should be able to get his/her userId etc etc wherever you want it from..? I know there has been **extensive** discussion in this list re. the pros and cons of using session variables and if you are of the all-session-vars-are-bad school of thought, this won't do you any good. But personally, this seems to be a situation where a session variable would come in handy.. If however this idea wn't work in your situation, you may want to discuss with your clients their absolute requirement about wanting a link vs. a button (I believe you indicated earlier that the latter case will pose no prblems for you..?)

Re: Form Submission
I said no such thing about javascript. I'm in the httpsession != evil school and I'd say this isn't an occasion where you'd use it as you don't need anything to persist beyond the request (accept this default action thing whatever thats about). The single action class as a type of command dispatcher sounds ingenious. But it has to be using a form property or request parameter otherwise the id in the link wouldn't do what you want. I can see how this has helped make life less complex :o) I assume it extracts a map iterates through is and then selects the relevant 'command' based on the map's contents. You cant submit a form with a link without using javascript. You can use an image as a button, but thats another subject. I have no more suggestions than those I've already made, else I'll start getting urges to go out and score come crack in an attempt to save my teeth from all the brick-chewing.

Re: Form Submission
sounds like you want to display an image instead of a submit button. html has provision for such things.. input type=image src=mybutton.gif in struts tags this is html:image .. if you have many employees in one form then you want to use indexed properties or mapped backed form using the id as your key. [Other keywords nested beans, nested forms] otherwise if there's just one employee use a hidden form value.

I use the EL and JSTL to accomplich the same thing:
td nowrap align=left
html:link page=/searchByPersonId.do?personId=${result.personId}
c:out value=${result.ssn}/
/html:link
/td
This creates a link for each person in a list that I iterate over using c:forEach.

Re: Form Submission
Hi Geeta/Paul/Mark/Wendy What Geeta has suggested is basically the same thing but Paul is using JSTL for that. But such is the restriction of my application that I can not use request object to get the values from form directly by calling request.getParameter(...); I will explain this why. The framework that we are working with right now gives some add on features over struts. Basically taken from StrutsEJB framework. We are using Map Based DTOs to transfer data from view layer to model layer and other way round. We are also using the feature of Command Files. I will explain it what it is for people unaware of StrutsEJB framework. In Struts we are supposed to mention the Action Class in the struts-config.xml. And from the Action class we generally call some java programs (say command files) to access the model layer basically to avoid keeping business logic in Action Classes. But in my framework we just need to mention the Command file name in struts-config.xml instead of Action classes. There is only one action class that is DefaultAction class which handles all the requests and diverts the program control to the command file. I will give here one typical entry in my struts-config.xml for your reference. action path=/CreateUser type=framework.common.web.DefaultAction name=UserForm scope=request input = /CreateUser.jsp parameter=app.cmd.CreateUserCmd forward name=Success path = /UserSucc.jsp / /action in the above action tag the attribute parameter is the name of the command file where i would like my control to go after the form gets submitted. Now the problem is in the Command File CreateUserCmd where i would keep my business logic -- i dont have the request object. so i cant do a request.getParameter(.); here. the way i get values from forms is like this. if I have this code in JSP html:text property=dto(txtUsname) styleClass=listItem size=14 / I will have to write the following code in my command file to get the value of User Name String UserName = (String)paramDTO.get(txtUsName); As Mark/Wendy were asking me why i cant use _javascript_ is because whenever i use something like this in _javascript_ I get _javascript_ error at runtime document.UserForm.dto(txtUsName).value = val; document.UserForm.submit(); This is obvious because whenever _javascript_ parses something like dto(txtUsName) it takes it as a function call. I hope I could explain the problem properly.

I have a form with one drop down menu list and two buttons (continue and
previous ). The two buttons are hooked up to the LookupDispatchAction

I process the code as required by the action of the button. Everything
works fine if I use the buttons.
My requirement is that when I click on any one value of the list box,
the form should get submitted. I am trying to use Javascript to do the
same.
In the onclick of the select html:select, I have a function called
submit()
The submit function looks like this
script language=text/javascript
function submit() {
document.form.action =
http://localhost:8081/createContentAction.do
document.form.submit()
}
/script
And my form action is
html:form action=/createContentAction

RE: Form submission through java script
If you do a System.out on action, you will find it's null right now.
You need to pass a valid action to the your dispatch Action so that it knows
which handler to call.
document.form.action='continue';

RE: Form submission through java script
I am getting the same error.
The name of the button that I want to emulate is action and the value
is Continue. Where/how do I set this parameter in the Java Script so
that the LookupDispatchAction is able to get the value.

If you do a System.out on action, you will find it's null right now.
You need to pass a valid action to the your dispatch Action so that it
knows which handler to call.

Subject: Form submission through java script
Hi,
I have a form with one drop down menu list and two buttons (continue and
previous ). The two buttons are hooked up to the LookupDispatchAction
where
I process the code as required by the action of the button. Everything
works fine if I use the buttons.
My requirement is that when I click on any one value of the list box,
the form should get submitted. I am trying to use Javascript to do the
same.
In the onclick of the select html:select, I have a function called
submit()
The submit function looks like this
script language=text/javascript
function submit() {
document.form.action =
http://localhost:8081/createContentAction.do
document.form.submit()
}
/script
And my form action is
html:form action=/createContentAction
When I click any value in the drop down, I get this error :
javax.servlet.ServletException: Request[/createContentAction] does not
contain handler parameter named action

RE: Form submission through java script
I got this message when I DID want to change the
action. I had to change the parameter name to xaction
and it worked. So I'd be suspicious of the name
submit as well. Also, I had to change the action to
append the parameter and its value to get it to work
this way.

Struts form submission using POST
How to submit a form to an external web link (not part of the current
web application)?
In struts action, all links are interpreted relative to web context and
therefore forward object specified in
struts-config does not work.
e.g.
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
{
ActionForward forward =
mapping.findForward(constructionPage);
}
// Strtus-config:
forward name=constructionPage
path=http://www.externalformprocessor.com/
Web context: myapplication
URL in forward tag of the struts-config is evaluated as
/myapplication/http://www.externalformprocessor.com; which
obviously is not a valid URL.
One approach is to append all form parameters as query string in URL and
use response.sendRedirectTo(...) method of HTTPServeletRequest class
but this is not desirable for security reasons.
Does any one know any alternative approach to submit forms to external
sites using POST?
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged,
proprietary, or otherwise private information. If you have received it in error,
please notify the sender immediately and delete the original. Any other use of the
email by you is prohibited.
RE: Struts form submission using POST
What are you actually trying to do here?
a.) Have the browser directly submit the form somewhere else
- or -
b.) have the browser submit to *your app* first and then and forward outside
from the action?
if(a)
then your execute code is irrelevant as you wont be going through the action
on submit - What you need is to have the 'action' attribute of the pages
form tag point at the external site. (Not quite sure how you would do this
using the struts tags as Im not familiar enough with their syntax)
if(b)
You cant do this using a server side forward. It would require a client side
forward (redirect). Ive never tried this with a POST rather than a GET, but
Im assuming that since your asking about it it doesnt work?

RE: Struts form submission using POST
I am submitting a form to external site (no form processing is involved
at the client side). All parameters that need to be passed to external
site are hidden variables on the page.
I am not sure how to use 'action' attribute of the page. In the past I
have attempted to use html:link with action but the problem remains
the same as URL is context/application relative (as specified in the
struts doc)and therefore external links are not valid URLs.
What I have tried is that collate all parameters and submit the page
using normal html form (and not using the struts framework) but I want
to stick to struts framework throughout my application.
Server side processing (option b in your reply) works only with GET as
you can append query string parameters and then using
request.sendRedirectTo(http://abc.com ?selectedName=); but this
exposes security risk.
Any further suggestions.

form tag point at the external site. (Not quite sure how you would do
this
using the struts tags as Im not familiar enough with their syntax)
if(b)
You cant do this using a server side forward. It would require a client
side
forward (redirect). Ive never tried this with a POST rather than a GET,
but
Im assuming that since your asking about it it doesnt work?

Subject: Struts form submission using POST
How to submit a form to an external web link (not part of the current
web application)?
In struts action, all links are interpreted relative to web context and
therefore forward object specified in
struts-config does not work.
e.g.
public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
{
ActionForward forward =
mapping.findForward(constructionPage);
}
// Strtus-config:
forward name=constructionPage
path=http://www.externalformprocessor.com/
Web context: myapplication
URL in forward tag of the struts-config is evaluated as
/myapplication/http://www.externalformprocessor.com; which
obviously is not a valid URL.
One approach is to append all form parameters as query string in URL and
use response.sendRedirectTo(...) method of HTTPServeletRequest class
but this is not desirable for security reasons.
Does any one know any alternative approach to submit forms to external
sites using POST?
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

RE: Struts form submission using POST
Use struts tags for everything except for the form tag...The in the action attribute
you can give the url to external site..

Subject: RE: Struts form submission using POST
I am submitting a form to external site (no form processing is involved
at the client side). All parameters that need to be passed to external
site are hidden variables on the page.
I am not sure how to use 'action' attribute of the page. In the past I
have attempted to use html:link with action but the problem remains
the same as URL is context/application relative (as specified in the
struts doc)and therefore external links are not valid URLs.
What I have tried is that collate all parameters and submit the page
using normal html form (and not using the struts framework) but I want
to stick to struts framework throughout my application.
Server side processing (option b in your reply) works only with GET as
you can append query string parameters and then using
request.sendRedirectTo(http://abc.com ?selectedName=); but this
exposes security risk.
Any further suggestions.

What are you actually trying to do here?
a.) Have the browser directly submit the form somewhere else
- or -
b.) have the browser submit to *your app* first and then and forward
outside
from the action?
if(a)
then your execute code is irrelevant as you wont be going through the
action
on submit - What you need is to have the 'action' attribute of the pages
form tag point at the external site. (Not quite sure how you would do

Third party form submission
Hi I want to submit a form to third party web site using POST method. However, struts action class always evaluates URL specified in the config file as relative URL. i.e http://thirdparty.com http://thirdparty.com/ is read as /http://thirdpary.com and therefore I could not use forward in action. I tried using [HTTPServletResponse] response.sendRedirect(http://thirdparty.com http://thirdparty.com/ ) but I am not sure if parameters set in the form will get passed by this method. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Regards Chinmay This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged, proprietary, or otherwise private information.

RE: Refreshing Form Submission and Duplicates
I like to use the combination of two. For data that is sensitive and should not be submitted twice, I use sync token and also a http redirect. For data that can be submitted twice, I just use the redirect. For a casual user who accidentally tries to resubmit by pressing refresh, redirect should suffice. He will not get any error. However when the user is adamant and tries to back by using the browser history, sync token is needed. I havent found any problems with the fact that redirect makes an extra trip to the client.

Hi,
I have a question about a bug in my application using a Struts Form.
This happens in multiple areas of my site, but the one example I will
use is a Message Board feature. The problem is that when a user goes
to a list of messages, fills out the form to post a message and ends
up back on the list page, the message will be submitted twice if they
refresh the page following the form submission. this has caused
duplicate messages throughout the message board, as it is the nature
of message boards to refresh the list of messages often to check for
new ones. Keep in mind, my app strictly follows the approach of the
O'Reilly book.
I'll try to make this easy to follow:
1. the user goes to a message board with a list of messages from other
users. this page is /messagelist.do the action looks like this:
action
path=/messagelist
name=messageListForm
type=myapp.framework.actions.MessageListAction
scope=request
forward name=Success path=/templates/messagelist.jsp/
/action
(the messageListForm is a struts form bean with a List of message
objects)
2. at the bottom of the page is a form to post your own message 3. the
user enters their Name, Subject and Message Body and submit the form
4. the form is processed by a Struts Action. the action tag in
struts-config.xml looks like this:
action
path=/messageinsert
name=messageDetailForm
type=myapp.framework.actions.MessageInsertAction
scope=request
validate=false
forward name=Success path=/messagelist.do/
/action
- From the naming convention, you can see that the Action inserts the
message into storage (database) and upon success the user is forwarded
to the same /messagelist.do action
Now, when the form is submitted and this is displayed, the URL in the
browser says:
http://myapp.com/myapp/messageinsert.do
I expect that this is correct because the HTML form itself was form
action=/messageinsert.do method=POST.
The user's submitted message will be found on the list of messages.
HOWEVER, IF THEY REFRESH THE SCREEN, THE MESSAGE WILL BE SUBMITTED
AGAIN. This should not happen. If i'm the customer, i've already
submitted the form, and now i'm seeing a list of messages. refreshing
should have no effect on the form that i just submitted.
Does anyone have a suggested fix?

The problem is that when a user goes to a list of messages, fills out the form to post a message and ends up back on the list page, the message will be submitted twice if they refresh the page following the form submission. this has caused duplicate messages throughout the message board, as it is the nature of message boards to refresh the list of messages often to check for new ones. Keep in mind, my app strictly follows the approach of the O'Reilly book. I'll try to make this easy to follow: 1. the user goes to a message board with a list of messages from other users. this page is /messagelist.do the action looks like this: action path=/messagelist name=messageListForm type=myapp.framework.actions.MessageListAction scope=request forward name=Success path=/templates/messagelist.jsp/ /action (the messageListForm is a struts form bean with a List of message objects) 2. at the bottom of the page is a form to post your own message 3. the user enters their Name, Subject and Message Body and submit the form 4. the form is processed by a Struts Action. the action tag in struts-config.xml looks like this: action path=/messageinsert name=messageDetailForm type=myapp.framework.actions.MessageInsertAction scope=request validate=false forward name=Success path=/messagelist.do/ /action - From the naming convention, you can see that the Action inserts the message into storage (database) and upon success the user is forwarded to the same /messagelist.do action Now, when the form is submitted and this is displayed, the URL in the browser says: http://myapp.com/myapp/messageinsert.do I expect that this is correct because the HTML form itself was form action=/messageinsert.do method=POST. The user's submitted message will be found on the list of messages. HOWEVER, IF THEY REFRESH THE SCREEN, THE MESSAGE WILL BE SUBMITTED AGAIN. This should not happen. If i'm the customer, i've already submitted the form, and now i'm seeing a list of messages. refreshing should have no effect on the form that i just submitted. Does anyone have a suggested fix?

Problem with form submission
Title: Message
Hi,
I am
facing a problem when submitting a form which contains a combo box
("select").
While
populating the combo box, I use a form-bean (DynaActionForm) containing a Vector
to populate the combo box. When I submit the form (to the same action so that
the same page is displayed with a different list), the selected value goes as a
String. Struts is trying to assign this String to the
Vector and it's throwing the following
error:
org.apache.commons.beanutils.ConversionException: Cannot assign value
of type 'java.lang.String' to property 'serviceSets' of type
'java.util.Vector'
Any
help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Suresh

RE: Problem with form submission
Hi, Attached is services.jsp. It mainly access the form-bean containing two Vector and displays two combo boxes. The flow is as follows. services.do populates the 2 vectors in servicesForm (DynaActionForm) and forwards to services.jsp. Services.jsp accesses the servicesForm and displays the contents of 2 vectors as two combo boxes. When the user selects one entry from the first combo box, I need to submit this so that the second combo box is updated as per the selection made in the first combo box. For this, I am submitting to searchServices.do, which is associated with searchServicesForm (again a DynaActionForm with two String varaiables for holding the selections from two combo boxes).

Re: Problem with form submission
I think the problem is that the property of your select (serviceSets) is a Vector, it must be a String if the select is not multiple. The property of the select is where the result is submitted, so it must be a String (if not multiple) or an array (if multiple). Only the collection of the option must be a collection.

Hmm. Any chance you are in a position to be able to append the parameters to the url: a href=scooby.do?name=bobphone=12345x=ySubmit/a Of course this href is constant so if you actually need to have those values editable by the user then this idea wont be much use to you...

I should be a bit clearer.

Take a look at the struts-example.
I know its been part of it since at least Struts 1.0
...specifically, look at SaveRegistrationAction.java
Good Luck!!!

Thank you James.
I am still not sure where to put saveToken(request) and
isTokenValid(request, true) is not taking. It is not accepting as valid

I am hoping that you will give me some clue for that.

To deal with resubmits, the most important issue is to avoid
updating the
database twice when the user accidentally resubmits the same
form. Struts
has a feature called transaction control tokens that help you avoid
this, which is very simply used as follows:
* In the Action that sets up your input form (i.e. before you forward
to it), execute the following
saveToken(request)
to save a special value in the user's session that will be used in
the next step.
* In the Action that receives the form and updates the database, add
the following logic before you do the update:
if (isTokenValid(request, true)) {
... this is a resubmit, so go display an error ...
}
The true parameter causes the token to be removed from the session
so that it doesn't interfere with subsequent form submits.
This way, the submit will work the first time, but fail on any
accidental
or on-purpose resubmit, and you avoid adding the information to the
database twice. It also prevents the user from navigating
directly to the
myDB.do URL without going through your normal setup actions -- because
the transaction token would not have been placed in the session, so the
isTokenValid() test would fail.

Form submission using html:link
Has anyone had any success submitting forms using html:link with the client-side form validation (packaged with 1.1b1)? My main problem is this: The field validation function is run from an onSubmit event declared in an attribute of the html:form tag. OnSubmit really means a press of a submit button, and not any form submission (e.g. document.form.submit() does not fire off an onSubmit event). here's an example: This works: html:form action=registerJob.do onsubmit=return validateRegisterJob(this) ... html:submit value=Submit onClick=bCancel=false / /html:form This doesn't: html:form action=registerJob.do onsubmit=return validateRegisterJob(this) ... html:link href=javascript: bCancel=false; document.forms[0].submit() / /html:form Any suggestions??? There's a secondary problem too. How can I gain access to the form name so I can use it in javascript?
