Re: Checkbox's question.

2001-12-20 Thread BONNET Francois-Xavier

Here is modified code for CheckBoxTag. Maybe it could be usefull to other developpers 
as 
it enables unchecking checkboxes without having to write some reset() method for 
ActionForms.

I worked on Struts 1.0 version of CheckBoxTag, what i modified :
- added indexed tags support
- added generation of hidden field

Here is my new version for doStartTag() method :


public int doStartTag() throws JspException {
// Create an appropriate hidden element to put it before the input element
// with value false. This will force to uncheck in the ActionForm if the checkbox 
// is not checked 
StringBuffer resultsHidden = new StringBuffer(input type=\hidden\);

// Create an appropriate input element based on our parameters
StringBuffer results = new StringBuffer(input type=\checkbox\);

resultsHidden.append( name=\);
results.append( name=\);

// Indexed properties handling
if (indexed != null) {
IterateTag iterateTag =
(IterateTag) findAncestorWithClass(this, IterateTag.class);
if (iterateTag == null) {
// this tag should only be nested in iteratetag, if it's not, throw 
exception
JspException e =
new JspException(messages.getMessage(indexed.noEnclosingIterate));
RequestUtils.saveException(pageContext, e);
throw e;
}
if (name != null) {
results.append(name);
resultsHidden.append(name);
}
results.append([);
results.append(iterateTag.getIndex());
results.append(]);
resultsHidden.append([);
resultsHidden.append(iterateTag.getIndex());
resultsHidden.append(]);
if (name != null) {
results.append(.);
resultsHidden.append(.);
}
}
// End of Indexed properties handling

results.append(this.property);
results.append(\);
resultsHidden.append(this.property);
resultsHidden.append(\ value=\false\ /);
if (accesskey != null) {
results.append( accesskey=\);
results.append(accesskey);
results.append(\);
}
if (tabindex != null) {
results.append( tabindex=\);
results.append(tabindex);
results.append(\);
}
results.append( value=\);
if (value == null)
results.append(on);
else
results.append(value);
results.append(\);
Object result = RequestUtils.lookup(pageContext, name, property, null);
if (result == null)
result = ;
if (!(result instanceof String))
result = result.toString();
String checked = (String) result;
if (checked.equalsIgnoreCase(true)
|| checked.equalsIgnoreCase(yes)
|| checked.equalsIgnoreCase(on))
results.append( checked=\checked\);
results.append(prepareEventHandlers());
results.append(prepareStyles());
results.append();

// Print this field to our output writer
ResponseUtils.write(pageContext, results.toString() + resultsHidden.toString());

// Continue processing this page
this.text = null;
return (EVAL_BODY_TAG);

}

 I was just thinking about this problem, too.  I think this
 checkbox-in-request-only-when-checked anomaly should be handled with
 javascript like this:
 
 The checkbox jsp tag should create a hidden field named after the property,
 and a checkbox with some other name.  When the checkbox is checked or
 unchecked, it should change the value of the hidden field with a generated
 line of javascript.
 
 This way, the controller doesn't have to know that the field is rendered as
 a checkbox (and do this special checkbox jig), and the field's value is only
 changed when the field exists in the request.  So if another jsp doesn't
 have the checkbox at all, the value isn't touched.

uncheck the box and submit. the value won't change, it still remained

Francois,

Could you post the changes you made to the checkBoxTag to the Struts dev group so it 
can reviewed and possibly added to the next version of the taglibs?  Hey, that's what 
open source is all about. :)

It's a consequence of the HTML standard. It does not represent unchecked
checkboxes. You can hardly call it a bug of struts.

And I don't think you should force your users to use java-enabled
browsers if you can do it otherwise.

Hi!

Use the reset method in the form bean:

public void reset(ActionMapping mapping, HttpServletRequest request) {
  openWindow= false;
 }

This is a well known problem, see link:

Hi all,
I am a newbie.
I used html:checkbox in my work. But it worked strange. When I
first view the page and submit the form, the checkbox is OK. Then if I
view the page again and change the checkbox's state, the checkbox is not
ok. It's always checked. How to fix it?
html:checkbox property=openWindow value=on/

public void setOpenWindow(String openWindow)
{
this.openWindow=openWindow;
}
public String getOpenWindow()
{
return openWindow;
}
private String openWindow=on;

Please help me!!!

RE: Checkbox's question.

2001-12-17 Thread Dan Cancro

I was just thinking about this problem, too.  I think this
checkbox-in-request-only-when-checked anomaly should be handled with
javascript like this:

The checkbox jsp tag should create a hidden field named after the property,
and a checkbox with some other name.  When the checkbox is checked or
unchecked, it should change the value of the hidden field with a generated
line of javascript.

This way, the controller doesn't have to know that the field is rendered as
a checkbox (and do this special checkbox jig), and the field's value is only
changed when the field exists in the request.  So if another jsp doesn't
have the checkbox at all, the value isn't touched.
