I have a form with several <html:text/> input fields and a couple of <html:file/> input fields. In web.xml, I also specify a value for maxFileSize (currently set to a really small value of 5K for testing). Here is the portion of my JSP with the input form:
----- <html:form action="/client/editJob.do" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" focus="jobName"> <html:hidden property="actionClass"/> <table> <tr><td>Job Name:</td><td><html:text property="jobName"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Job Type:</td><td><html:text property="jobType"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Due Date:</td><td><html:text property="dueDt"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Thumbnail 1:</td><td><html:file property="thumbnail1"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Thumbnail 2:</td><td><html:file property="thumbnail2"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Thumbnail 3:</td><td><html:file property="thumbnail3"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Thumbnail 4:</td><td><html:file property="thumbnail4"/></td></tr> <tr><td>Thumbnail 5:</td><td><html:file property="thumbnail5"/></td></tr> </table> <p><html:submit property="submitProperty" value="Submit"/></p> </html:form> ----- My action class uses the actionClass hidden variable to determine when to display the input form vs. when to process the inputs. [1] If I enter valid inputs and upload a file smaller than maxFileSize, everything works fine. [2] If I enter an invalid input and upload a file smaller than maxFileSize, the input page gets redisplayed with the form errors at the top, which is also fine. [3] If I upload a file larger than maxFileSize, the problem occurs. I don't get the actionClass form variable set. None of the other form variables are set either. Thus, the input page redisplays as if the user just pulled it up. None of what the user typed before is preserved, and even more importantly, the user gets no indication that it was the size of the file that caused the input page to redisplay. In fact, the user gets no mention whatsoever that an error occurred. It just appears to the user that the application has a bug and is being stubborn. How do I get the values that the user entered (and also the hidden HTML fields) when Struts detects a larger than allowed file in a file upload field? I don't seem to get any indication that Struts decided not to parse things because the size of a file upload field exceeded the maxFileSize setting. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
