property name repetition in one form
Hello, I am using a form displaying properties from a bean. One property of this bean is named aProperty. The bean as another property which is a list of other beans (call it items), which one of the item has the property named aProperty too. In my form, I want to know which user is shown, so I use the property aProperty of my bean. And I want to know which item of the items list is selected, with the help of the property aProperty of each item. So in the form, I have the repetition of the property name aProperty. How can I deal with that? Is there a way to handle that, for example giving a different name to the form controls than the property name they are representing?

property name mismatch / trouble
Hello, I am using a form displaying properties from a bean. One property of this bean is the unique id from db: id. The bean as a property which is a list of other beans (call it items), which ones has the property of the unique id from db too: id. In my form, I want to know which user is shown, so I use the property id of my bean. And I want to know which item of the items list is selected, with the help of the id property of each item. To avoid the mismath between the two id properties, I would like to tell the tags (html:hidden, html:text, etc) to use a different name for the field in the request, than the object property. How can I do that? Thanx in advance Samuel - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: only with bean?
Hello Henrique, Thanks for your answer. Your solution suppose I maintain two lists of objects, one for the labels and one for the values. Is it not possible to give a list of object, and to use the object properties for the value and for the label?

only with bean?
Hello there, I am able to create a html select with struts when the collection to display in the options tag is a collection stored in the session or request and to use the selected value for my form. Fine. But now I have a Form representing a bean. This form has an attribute of type ArrayList. I'd like the select/options tag to show me the content of the ArrayList for the actual Form property value. I want to use the form attribute and not create a collection to store in a scope. My JSP looks like: My form DataForm has the attributes identification, selectedItems and allItems. But it is not working. Anybody a hint?

Re: Server side validation
Hello Nicholas, Ok, thank you very much for the explanation, it makes the things a bit clearer and less magical to me. I have two questions: -Why making that difference once for all? I mean, why not just accept everything here (page, action, forward)? -Where is a good and complete documentation with examples about config-struts.xml to find (except struts-config_1_1.dtd)?

Re: Server side validation
Hello Geeta, I've solved the problem, still don't really understand the reason. I've defined a global forward for the input of my reluctant form, and now, in case of validation error, I am forwarded to the desired page, not to the blank one. Thanks for you help.

Re: Server side validation
Hello Geeta, "login" must have been defined as a global-forward ..? You are right, I am quite new here, I did no notice. No reason. So just take it out..:) Ok, it's gone. But I still get an empty page when I make a validation error :-( The validation code is going thru, maybe another hint?

Server side validation
Hello, I am trying to use server side validation. I validate my form data in the validate method of the form. When there is a validation error the application shows me a blank page, and not the form again. I guess I have an error in the action mapping configuration in struts-config, I am not sure about the use of the "input" field. My form validation works fine with the login (from the struts example) but I can't see what is the difference between both form configuration. Can anybody help?

reuse of request parameter in application flow

I am submiting a form in target.jsp which should do some action an show again the target.jsp page. How can I tell my page / app to use the data of the prior request to resend the page?

Handle dynamic form (form/iterate)
Hello, My app has a form which content is generated dynamicly with the help of an iterate tag. The form displayed is fine, the fields in the repeated lines have all the same name, which is correct and easy to handle with servlet. How can I handle this fields in my xForm / xAction classes?

button as link
Hello, I would like to use a button as a link. I used to solve that, before struts, with a form containing only a button. With struts, it seems I have to declare a form object in the struts-config.xml, create a class for that empty form, etc. Is there a simple way to solve that?

Re: Drop down population question
Hello Abhi, I am sorry, which one is the storeToBean and storeToProperty with reference to my example? I can't say, cause your example show me only the code in the JSP. Think about where do you want to store the object selected in your option. I assume it is in a bean in which you'll store the content of your form. In my example, the bean where you store the result is the storeToBean. For each field in your form, you will store the result in a property (attribute) of your bean class. The storeToProperty indicates in which field of your bean you'll store the result. If you don't have this bean class yet, you should create it.

Re: Drop down population question
Hello Abhi,
request.setAttribute("lstCountry", v)
So the bean with you list is "lstCountry".
JSP:
Explanation:
-storeTo is the bean where to store the result
-storeToProperty is the property of the bean storeTo where to store the
result
-lstCountry: your bean with the collection of beans
-id: the property of the bean contained in you collection that you use
for the "value" part of the option (the value returned to
storeToProperty when you select an option)
-name: the property of the bean contained in you collection that you use
for the content shown to the users of you site
Sincerly

Action mapping mismatch
Hello there, The link: http://project:8080/start.do shows me the page configured in struts-config.xml: This form contains a tag which looks like that in the generated html page: If I press the submit button, the page shown is: http://project:8080/start.do?category=4 ... and not, like I would expect: http://project:8080/myAction.do?category=4 ... Why am I not directed to the new defined action "myAction.do" like the form says? Why the URL stays with the original "start.do" action from the page where I am, and which is not defined anywhere in my form? Any hint?
