Re: [OT] JSP Clutter
Sorry, the point was not to compare .net/JSF/Tapestry against Struts, but to highlight that a bit fore thought into developing a good CSS at the start of the project would have reduced the amount of markup we have had to write in the last six months. It certainly makes our life easier to maintain the code.

I have still to convince this new manager that Struts is the way, but I've removed one of the major arguments to going down the Tapestry/JSF route for now (not that they don't use CSSes)! At least this is the area where asp.net is suckier than Struts: many asp.net controls have built-in font sizes or colors or table styles, so they cannot be controlled by CSS. On the other hand, Struts does not have the notion of web controls at all. You have to build all pages yourself and manually wire them to action form properties or to other beans' properties. Struts offers more freedom; maybe too much than an average web developer would wish for.

Re: [OT] JSP Clutter
No, I'm not saying that JSF or Tapestry will be able to mind read, but I am under the impression (probably very wrong by the way this is going) that they are able to generate content based on XML or Java markup. As I say I haven't had the time to look further into JSF/ Tapestry bar a few articles and a demonstration. Yours in ignorance!

That's right, but as long as you deliver html to the customer, you have to deal with it, regardless of your technology. At the end of the day, someone has to produce the html. It can be a view component as in JSF, a tile as in Struts, or whatever, but it has to be done, and the HTML code is ABSOLUTELY IDENTICAL in all cases :-) So sorry, but this is no argument pro or contra struts.

[OT] Sub Project - Table Renderer
I would be interested in getting a feel for those developers who would be interested in a dynamic table renderer that allows for automatic sorting across a single or multiple columns and the ability to redisplay only the table using Frank Zametti's AjaxTags (it can do it as a whole page to, but that is just wasteful!). I've been evolving one over several years and it would be but a days work to get it generic enough to make available to others. I'm sure there are other solutions out there; there definitely is one by Bill Siggelkow in his 'Jakarta Struts Cookbook'. This solution is a more encompassing, removing the need to have to hard code the ordering in your action, it can be specified via XML or just left to the renderer to work it out based on the underlying Class of the bean (assuming there is only one) within the collection. Anyways, can I just ask any of those who are interested to give me a yay (or nay) so I get a gist as to whether I am wasting my time or not?

Re: how to use tiles
d d This depends on which machine you only want the "bit" to be refreshed. With Tiles, it will only refresh the bit that needs refreshing on the server, but the whole page will be refreshed on the client regardless. I think if you wanted to achieve what you are asking, frames really is the only (and not very nice, IMHO) solution. However, there is AJAX (have a look at Frank Zammetti's implementation, AJAX Struts, or Struts AJAX - it is on the Struts WIKI). AJAX can refresh/build sections on the screen without the entire page being refreshed, and Frank's implementation works very nicely.

Re: How to get the ActionForward for the _previous_ page
Stefan I am not aware of a way of recording the last JSP/(Action or Servlet) a user was at within Struts, so for my applications I do it myself and save the String to a Session object (or store it within another object that is stored in the session scope). I do it seperately for the JSP and (Action or Servlet) urls, as depending on what I am doing, depends on which one I go back to. Each action (or servlet) that is called updates the value of the two session properties, thus a successive servlet can reference them. There may of course be a more refined way to do this, but at least this is relatively simple.

The changing of the language is done using a normal Action class. My problem is that after changing the language (resetting the session attribute) I do not know where to forward to. I want to forward to the last page independently on which page the language was selected. The problem with Struts is that i do not get any information about the last page that the user was on, so I am not able to forward to the last page. Is this correct or is there any workaround to do this? If this is not possible, then it would be nice to have that in a further release of Struts because I think that would be very helpful to create dialogues based on Struts.

Re: HSQLDV / STRUTS
Andre
What type of commit are you using under JDBC, automatic or manual? Perhaps
you should reply with the offending code so we can see what is happeneing.
Also, what exception handling are you using around the INSERT code, as
you may be handling an exception/error but not doing anything with it.

Subject:HSQLDV / STRUTS
I'm using HSQLDB I have a Java Action Class that performs an INSERT
(queryStr = "INSERT INTO USERS (PASSWORD, EMAIL) VALUES ('?', '?')";)
query my code indicates that the INSERT is successful however when I
query the Database SELECT * it doesn't show the current
INSERT that was made. Any suggestions on why the code is not being
reflected in the database?

Re: big validation.xml
I'm in the same boat, up until now we've developed small Struts applications (about 20 different sets of input/view forms). Now we are going to migrate an application which we wrote in our own framework to Struts. This contains about 300 separate input/view forms (a lot will be reduced down due to re-usability of Struts over our own framework). As Dion asks, what is the best practice for projects of this size?

Because there are lots of entities in application that I'm developing, more than 80, the validation.xml file will be so big, roughly more than two thousands line. For such a big validation.xml, will there be effect in performance in the JSP that utilize the validation.xml? Are there any tips/best practices for such situation?

Re: how do i get the reference of ServletContext in Action Class
servlet.getServletContext(). The 'servlet' is part of the super class 'Action' that contains an object 'servlet' of the type 'ActionServlet'. It's from this object the method 'getServletContext()' comes from.

Re: tiles sidebar,header,footer
There is an example of this in the struts example code. What you are asking to do is kind of the whole reason for using Tiles (or at least a fairly important one), so I can assume you really haven't looked at any of the user documentation/examples as of yet. I'd suggest a visit to http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/ and reading through the documentation.

Evening All I have a sticky problem, and it goes something like this: I have a JSP which will be returned by an Action. On this JSP page there are a fair few Anchors like: I¹m an Anchor. Normally (well under Servlets) you can pass a parameter in the url like this: http://www.pyplia.com/wibble.jsp#ImAnAnchor, and the browser will take you to the point of the Anchor.
