Select options tag
I have 20-25 combo-boxes in a single page.Each combo-box contains number of values and corresponding description. If I use a collection to populate all the options in all the combo-box,I have to define 20 javabeans and then keep them in scope. Is there any other easier way to do it using Struts Regards VasudevRao Gupta -Original Message- From: Tiago Henrique Costa Rodrigues Alves [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 08 December 2003 23:36 To: Struts Users Mailing List (E-mail) Subject: Struts User Roles Where can I find Struts Roles documentation?

How can I construct STRUTS select options tag according to a parameter ?
Hi there. How can I construct STRUTS select options tag according to a parameter ? I got a jsp named example_1.jsp. One accesses the page with a parameter like example_1.jsp?id=2 . Now what I wanna do is that the example_1.jsp get the value of id parameter and construct select options tag dynamically. Like below... String id = request.getParameter(id); USBean us = (USBean)request.getServletContext().getAttribute(USBean); StateBean state = us.getState(id); ArrayList cities = state.getCities(); All Beans above are set in the application scope when tomcat starts. I dont' know how to make us.getState(id) with STRUTS select options tag, since USBean's getState( ) method requires a id parameter. What I'm doing now is Using 1 more page ( actionExample.do ) right before the example_1.jsp. One accesses the actionExample.do with the id parameter like actionExample.do?id=2 and forward to example_1.jsp In the actionExample.do, get a value of the id parameter and StateBean accroding to the value. Set the StateBean in session scope like below. String id = request.getParameter(id); USBean us = (USBean)request.getServletContext().getAttribute(USBean); StateBean state = us.getState(id); request.getSession(true).setAttribute(state,state); then in example_1.jsp html:select property=state html:options collection=cities property=id labelProperty=name / /html:select I don't wanna do this anymore...since eveytime users accesses the actionExample.do , state bean is set in the session scope... Isn't this too much work ??? Thanks in advance. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: How can I construct STRUTS select options tag according to aparameter ?
The simplest thing would be to have the Action create a LabelValue bean collection from state and cities, and pass that collection instead. http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/util/LabelValueBean.html A good practice is to use Actions to front any page that uses dynamic data. So, instead of linking to examnple_1.jsp, you would always link to a example_1.do (or equivalent) that ensured whatever data you need exists. The idea is that the Action does whatever is necessary to make the dynamic data easy to display. For a select control, the easiest format for the data is a collection of LabelValue beans, so that's the one the Action should prepare. For something like States, you could also store the collection in application scope at start up, using a plug-in, so that the Action would not need to create it. See the MailReader sample application, bundled with Struts, for a working example of using a plugin to create a LabelValue collection. -Ted. Fumitada Hattori wrote: Hi there.

generating select options from a previous select
Hello, I have a form with two select tags. I want the options for the second to be dependent on the option chosen for the first. What is the best way to accomplish this? If java script is the answer, how do I obtain the value of the option chosen in the first select (I'm new to web apps)? What I've tried to do is create the options for the second select in the form bean given the value of the first, but of course, the set method for the property associated with the first select is not called until the form is submitted. html:form action=/Go name=GoForm type=my.GoForm bean:message key=app.select.category/ html:select property=category html:options name=GoForm property=categoryCollection/ /html:select bean:message key=app.select.subcategory/ html:select property=subcategory html:options name=GoForm property=subcategoryCollection/ /html:select ... /html:form Thanks for helping, Kelly - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: RowSetDynaClass, select options
No, it doesn't. At least it didn't for me. value from html:option value=%= firstName % doesn't work. It would be so great if there were a way to create a concatenated label for a select menu.

I present it like this: html:select multiple=true size=10 property=addchosencourseids html:options collection=availablecourses labelProperty=displayLabel property=courseinstanceid / /html:select It would be so nice to create the option label dynamically.

you can create a collection for the rights and store it in application context when your application starts(may be in an initialization servlet). then use the html:select tag and html:options tag to render the admin picklist(s). you can use ten html:text tags for login fields or look into the possibility of using an array for login fields. -rana. -Original Message- From: Jitendra Singh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 24, 2002 7:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: select, options, define???

A good example is in the struts-exersize-tablib.war in the struts/webapps dir look at html-select.jsp You can create a collection of OptionBeans and select it or explicitly set each option.

Re: Select Options
Hi Johnathan, I think you are getting confused with how it actually selects the value that the user intended. Think of it this way: html:select property=type html:options collection=someCollectionYouHaveSetInTheScope property=value labelProperty=label/ /html:select This means that when the form is submitted, the type parameter is sent to your action class with the value that they selected from the options. Because this is struts, if your FormBean happens to have a getType()/setType() method on it, that property will be set at form submission, and subsequently the html:select tag will get the value of that property and make sure that the corresponding option is selected in in the list. The options tag is simple, you set the collection attribute to a collection of objects which possess a getValue() and a getLabel() method, the values of these methods are used in the resulting option tag for the value attribute and the text that goes between the option/option tags respectively..

Struts select/options tags usage...
Subject: Struts select/options tags usage... From: Scott Curtis [EMAIL PROTECTED] === Hi, I have a JSP with the following scriplet: % // Set up the server names list ServerNamesForm form = (ServerNamesForm)request.getAttribute(serverNamesForm); ArrayList list = form.getServerNames(); pageContext.setAttribute(serverNames, list); % The List list contains a collection of beans with value/labelProperty values in them. This code sets the list collection as an attribute of the pageContext, ready for use in the following code: html:select name=serverNamesForm property=theServerName html:options collection=serverNames property=value labelProperty=label / /html:select This works fine when simply loading the page. I then want the user to select an option from the displayed combo box and click a button whose action maps to anAction.do and subsequently an Action class that uses the selected values (hopefully now stored in the ServerNamesForm). The button looks like the following: input type=button name=submit value=Submit onclick=javascript:location='./anAction.do';/ Unfortunately when I click the button I get the following error message: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Cannot find bean under name serverNames at org.apache.struts.taglib.html.OptionsTag.getIterator(OptionsTag.java:343) at org.apache.struts.taglib.html.OptionsTag.doEndTag(OptionsTag.java:194) at /serverNames.jsp._jspService(/serverNames.jsp.java:327) I don't understand this as the page loads therefore the bean serverNames is clearly found. I am not sure what could be the problem with it? If that makes any sense and anyone can help I would be extremely grateful.

how can I set the values in the form of a iteration (logic:iterate) on the select options (html:select)
Vehiclepark is a Bean with the property cars (cars is a collection of a
Car).
Car is a bean with the properties id and vehicleparkId
hier ist my jsp-code
logic:iterate name=Vehiclepark property=cars id=Car html:hidden
name=Car property=id indexed=true/ html:select name=Car
property=vehicleparkId indexed=true html:options
name=allvehicleparkid / /html:select /logic:iterate
and hier ist my VehicleparkForm:
ArrayList cars = new ArrayList(); public ArrayList getCars() { return cars;
} public void setCars(ArrayList cars) { this.cars = cars; } public Car
getCars(int index) { return (Car) cars.get(index); } public void setCars(int
index, Car car) { cars.set(index,car); }
and hier ist my VehicleparkAction:
I call this method vehicleparkForm.getCars() but I receive size()=0 nothing
is saving in the form.
I want to change the vehicleparkid and save the data in the form. How can I
do it?

RE: Forcing a form-reload OR a select Options reload
I had to do something similar this last week and it was not as easy as I thought it would be :-) In your Javascript, you can call an action to reload this and then the action can return an ActionMapping back to your current page after a reload.Although note that your page will completely redraw itself :-)For that reason, I added a Javascript confirm() to ask the user if they really want to reload now or wait until the next time they visit the application. In many aspects, the User Interface for struts-related applications suffers greatly compared to the JFC/Swing way of doing it :-) Jesse Alexander (KADA 12) To: Struts Users Mailing List alexander.jesse[EMAIL PROTECTED] @csfs.com cc: Subject: RE: Forcing a form-reload OR a select Options 03/13/02 11:30 reload PM Please respond to Struts Users Mailing List Hi, Struts is a server-based application-environment...

Re: select/options/option
The value which is returned from the property property in the select tag will make the choice for you if one of the choices matches this value. eg. Use the options tag running off a list, and if the property which is specified in the select tag matches one, Struts will select it for you. Arron. Jason Wells wrote: Thanks for the summarized info.

Indexed properties with multiple select options
Hi -
In my JSP I'm generating (a small unknown number) of multiselect
SELECT drop-down lists with values taken from a Hashtable containing
ArrayLists, such that each drop-down corresponds to the strings in
an ArrayList in the Hashtable:
% int n = 0; %
logic:iterate id=attTab name=docDefAttList property=attTable
%
prop = attributeKeys[ + n + ];
n++;
%
bean:define id=atts name=attTab property=value /
html:select property=%=prop % size=10 multiple=true
html:options collection=atts property=docDefAttValKey
labelProperty=docDefAttValDes/
/html:select
/logic:iterate
In the associated form bean, I assume I need to use an ArrayList (named attList
below) which will contain the String[] arrays of selected values passed back
from my SELECTs. So I have my indexed property String[] attributeKeys with
getter and setter thus:
public String[] getAttList(int idx) {
return (String[])attList.get(idx);
}
public void setAttList(int idx, String[] keys) {
attList.set(idx, keys);
}
But the problem is that this collapses in BeanUtils.populate with a
type mismatch error:
javax.servlet.ServletException: BeanUtils.populate
at org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.populate(RequestUtils.java:486)
Root cause:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type mismatch
at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method)
at
org.apache.struts.util.PropertyUtils.setIndexedProperty(PropertyUtils.java:688)
I'm quite new to Struts, and can't understand what I'm doing wrong!
Is it actually possible to use multiple select options with indexed
properties? Any ideas? Thanks!
Michael

RE: select options doesn't work
In your Form bean change your set method to take a string.
public void setMarketList(String marketList)
{
}
You will only get the item the user selected back in your bean, not the
whole list.

Hope this helps. -- Martin Cooper - Original Message - From: "Nick Pellow" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 07, 2001 5:01 PM Subject: select options Hi, Looking at: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/struts-html.html#select I notice that for the name attribute, the following description is given: name The fully-qualified java class name of the bean containing the underlying property. [RT Expr] Is this correct? I thought 'type' was usually used for class names and 'name' was used for variable names. Could someone please tell me what the name attribute means and when it should/shouldn't be used with select boxes? Cheers, Nick
Struggling with select/options
The examples I've seen using html:options name="someBean" property="someProperty" / all seem to reference a collection defined in the same jsp as the options tag. Could someone provide a rookie with an example where the collection bean is not defined in the same jsp, but rather by, say an action servlet or an application bean? For example, say I've got a User bean with a Vector of ints called Accounts. I'd like to display those accounts in a list-box - ultimately I'd like to display an associated name and use the int as the option value. I know that I can use labelName and labelProperty for this, but I haven't gotten the first part working yet. I'm able to get html:options collection= working, but I'm stumped on the other options mode. Most of the ways I've tried it result in class cast exceptions during the jsp compile. thank you, Marty La Jeunesse
RE: Struggling with select/options
Jean-Noel, merci beaucoup. Although using the collection mode of options, rather than name made, I'm accomplishing what I wanted to do. thanks again -Original Message- From: Jean-Nol Ribette [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2001 7:43 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Struggling with select/options Did you put an int in your collection ? Did you try with a Integer ? Not in the collection of course but check you don't have an int which should be an Integer or a String somewhere.
RE: Select/Options Tag
Thanks for that. Got it passing a string array now. Managed to pass all options by calling a script function to select them all before posting.

How can I maintain ALL the OPTIONS within a SELECT box within a form bean?? This bug was just fixed, so you will need the most current nightly release. You can now have a property that returns a String array, and use it to back a SELECT statement that allows multiple options: html:select property="foo" multiple="true" ... Use html:option and/or html:options here ... /html:select and Struts will correctly remember all of the selected values, based on the contents of your array. There is a test page (html-select.jsp) in the Struts test application (struts-test.war) that illustrates how this works.
