Re: CSS background images, struts2
I made my CSS files out of JSPs, like so:
<%@ page contentType="text/css"%>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core"; prefix="c" %>
body {
background-color: #ECEDF1;
font-family: 'Lucida Grande',Geneva,Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;
background-image: url();
margin-top: 0px;
padding: 0;
}
And then called them like this:
"
type="text/css">
Who cares if it's ugly or whatever; I don't have broken images in my apps
anymore. :)

Oh. That feels s dirty!!!
There has to be a cleaner way to do it.

Jetty / Apache / mod_proxy config with sslext
Hi all, I am using sslext in my Struts application to support http/https, and attempting to get all this to run on a Jetty server behind an Apache 2 web server. The application runs fine, but I am really running into trouble with my configuration, particularly since sslext forwards to the specified http (or https) port. This seems to almost always lead to a redirect loop error. Here is how I have my configuration setup: In my app (I'll call it 'sa' here), I have the http port is set to 80, with https set to 443 (all this is setup in struts-config.xml). In my httpd.conf, I have setup the following, which is the same in httpd-ssl.conf: ProxyPass /sa http://localhost:8080/sa ProxyPassReverse /sa http://localhost:8080/sa Jetty is running on port 8080. With the configuration above, requests going to /sa are routed to Jetty, both for http and https requests. This is where the trouble begins; sslext forwards to port 80, but then that forwards back to 8080 for Jetty, and so on and so on. However, if I set my http/https ports to 8080/8443 in my struts app, then my links are shown as http://server:8443/link.do in my web pages, which then does not utilize port 443 as desired (similarly for 8080). Anybody have any good ideas on how to get around this issue? Thanks, Andy PS: I apologize if this is more a Tomcat/config question, but it seems this issue is caused mainly by sslext. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
Displaytag, number formatting, and sorting
Hi all, I am using displaytag, and I would like to have a sortable column of large numbers. I want to format these numbers (they're going to be dollar amounts, like 1,400.00, 6.99, and the like), but it seems that I cannot have the fancy number formatting and have that column sortable all at the same time. I either get a sortable column of numbers that look like this: 1400.00 33938.39 3450984530.83 .99 ...or a non-sortable column of nicely formatted numbers, like this: 1,400.00 33,938.39 3,450,984,530.83 .99 Has anyone been able to get the number formatting and the sorting to work together? If so, please tell me what I'm doing wrong. I've tried bean:write with a formatKey, html-el:rewrite, and whatever else to no avail. Thank you very much!

Gracefully handling invalid paths
Hi all, I am wondering how I should handle invalid path situations within my Struts application. I want to be able to have a "catch-all" page whenever someone enters an invalid path so that they don't see that ugly Tomcat 404 page. How might I go about doing something like that? Thanks very much. Andy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Displaying bean values within tiles
Ok, let me get this straight. I'll go down the list and you see if I
have each step correct:
1. Put a string in some scope, like the request scope:
request.setAttribute("thispagetitle", results.getWhatever());
2. In my "results" page, I want the title of that page to be the value
that I sent back as "thispagetitle", so I will do this:
Which will put the value of "thispagetitle" into "pagetitle".
3. Then, in my template file, whatever is put into "pagetitle" will be
displayed:
Results:
...which should display getWhatever() in step #1.
Is that the way this thing works?
Thank you for your help!

Displaying bean values within tiles
Hi all, I hate to ask a real, boring, non-OT question on a Friday, but I am working with a Struts application in which I am using tiles to organize my views. What I want to be able to do is pass in a bean with a String (or, "string beans" for all you farmer types out there) into my tiles setup and have that value displayed in my view. I have my tiles definitions in tiles-defs.xml, and of course I have a file template.jsp which handles my layout. I have horsed around with using the tag with the String value, but I can't seem to get that to work -- for the page I want to display it on, it either displays the default value for the page as I have it set in tiles-defs.xml, or it doesn't print anything at all. I suppose my question could/should be how and where would I use this useAttribute tag, as it seems to be the solution to my problem. Thanks for your help, and I look forward to receiving your responses. Best Regards, Andy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I always thought a lot of the JPetStore demo found on the iBatis web site (http://www.ibatis.com/jpetstore/jpetstore.html), and then of course Rick Reumann's "Struttin' With Struts" site is pretty stellar as well (http://www.reumann.net/do/struts/main). I have learned a lot from those two sites, and still refer to code I got there from time to time. Also, Ted Husted has good stuff on his site at http://husted.com/struts/index.html, and also the example code and documentation on the Struts web site is also quite useful. Of course, there are many other good sites that have good code on them for your benefit, but these are the ones that seem to have been the most helpful to me. Hopefully they'll be helpful to you as well. Andy - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MySQL, iBatis, and mysql_insert_id
Hi all, I am working on a Struts app where I will be slapping some stuff into a database table, and from there I will need to get an insert ID back. I am using a MySQL database, my database stuff is handled by iBatis, and I am assuming that I need to use the MySLQ command mysql_insert_id() to get that ID back so I can use it on secondary inserts which will need that ID as a key. Has anyone ever done anything like this before? If not, what sorts of methods did you use in this scenario to accomplish this? Thanks very much for your help, as always.

From bean into "for" loop
Hi all,
I am trying to do something as simple as writing a FOR loop with some
information that I have in a bean, but this is proving to be quite a
bit more cumbersome and difficult than I thought it would be. For some
reason, everything I try seems to fail. Here is a short example of
what I'm trying to do:
<% for(int i = 0; i < ${productData.someCount}; i++) { %>
// Write my text here
<% } %>
What am I missing here? If you could help me I'd appreciate it --
enough time wasted on this thing already.
Thanks,
Andy

With this discussion in mind, I am wondering if there is any way I can use an ActionForm in the following scenario: I would like to have a list of fields, dynamically created, with names that have been dynamically created along with those fields. So, for example, I would have a series of input fields like this: The "field_" part of the name value will stay, but the number will change. With these field name values being so dynamic, is there any trick I can use to feed all this into an ActionForm? I don't think there is, unless I am missing something...

iBatis caching not working
Hi all, I can't get iBatis caching to work for anything. Worse yet, it seems that I am doing what the error messages tell me to fix, but still nothing. The message I have been getting is: org.jdom.JDOMException: Error on line 9: Attribute "implementation" must be declared for element type "cache-model". But I have "implementation" specified, as follows: Also, I have tried replacing "LRU" with "com.ibatis.db.sqlmap.cache.lru.LruCacheController", but I still get the same problem. Is there some other way I have to "declare" my implementation?! I have ibatis-db.jar and ibatis-sqlmap.jar in my /WEB-INF/lib directory, but that hasn't seemed to matter. What could I be doing wrong?

Handling parameters not in a form bean
Hi all, I am wondering if there is a way that I can access submitted form information in an action that may not be a member of any form bean? Do name/value pairs submitted to an action *have* to be in a form bean? If they don't, how could they be accessed? I have a situation where my application will have a bunch of input fields, with names that begin with "prod_", and end with a number, like "prod_12", "prod_20", and so on. Putting all these "prod_"s in a huge formbean would be a pain, and it would be easier to just grab them directly. But everything I try seems to fail. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
