RE: Order Detail page with editable line items
ListUtils.lazyList of the commons-collections comes in handy here. Mix in a good dose of jstl and/or nested tags and it should suffice.

The problem is this: I have an order detail page that has a list of line items with editable data inside each line item. The user is allowed to select which product they're ordering and what quantity of that product per line item. I can figure out how to create an ActionForm bean that is able to convey the values to the JSP using a collection of line item beans inside the ActionForm. And, I can figure out how to code the JSP to output the values into the form elements using the logic:iterate tag. However, what I'm having trouble with is submitting the values back to the Action. How can Struts repopulate the collection inside the ActionForm? Or, if I should not be using a collection to represent the line items, how else should I do it? In the case of not using a collection to represent the line items, how do I get Struts taglib to populate the form elements in the JSP? I've attached a gif file that depicts the prototype of the screen I'm talking about, for those of you who are visual thinkers. Any help is appreciated!

RE: Order Detail page with editable line items
I wrote a very similar module last summer and still have the source. It may help, if you want it.

This was exactly my solution to a similar problem and it works great.

RE: Order Detail page with editable line items
Numerous people have requested this, so I'll just send it to the list and hope it passes the censors. :-) For reference, see the view cart page at http://shop.t-mobile.com. Attached is the JSP. I'm looking for the Action class now Mark - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Can you elaborate? Or, point me to a decent example?

Re: Order Detail page with editable line items
Multi Row updates, nested or not are used often. Here is an working example: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/basicportal/bP/WEB-INF/portlets/cms/ContentAprvMR.jsp You can check the nested multi row bean in source as well. .V Greg Blomqusit wrote: I have a problem that I'm sure is quite common.
