Re: Multibox

However although they load fine on the first load they do not move after that. i.e. I can change which ones are selected and it'll go off and update the db but when I load the page again the origonal ticks are still shown. One reason could be that you defined the accompanying form with scope="session". If so, are you sure you need this? Then again, it could be that a method is pre-populating the checkboxes by retrieving the relevant values from the database that you just inserted. Can you post more code?

[Slightly OT] Intuitive way of multi-select?
Hello, I have been mulling over how to provide a simple way of multi-select. Some how, I'm not very comfortable with providing the normal way of enlarged drop down list, which the users have use Ctrl+click to select. The reason is that this becomes messy when they come back to edit their selections. The only other option I see is to provide bunch of checkboxes. Is there any other way of providing a simple way of doing multi-select in an edit-friendly way?

Relation between validator & ?
Hello Guys, I have a normal action class called PrepareFacultyEntryAction which basically retrieves some data from the database, and forwards it to a jsp page. I have a couple of which are filled by an arraylist of label value beans. So far so good. The user selects something, and hits submit. Which will be submitted to another Action class called FacultyEntryAction which has a Validator form (the previous action class also uses the same formclass, but with validate="false", so that it won't validate the first time around) and does some validations (this time, I set validate="true" in the action mapping). But, when I submit to this Action class, all I'm seeing is a jumble of javascript written across the browser (and execute is not being called). Surprisingly, if I remove the two tags, then it shows up correctly. The validations work, and the class is submitting properly. But if I put those two tags, everything blows up. I'm completely lost. Please help. TIA, Vamsee. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Struts or SpringFramework
Richard Reyes wrote: Whats the advantage of using spring for your persitence layer when you can do it with struts? I had the good fortune to read Rod Johnson & Juergen Hoeller's "J2EE developement without EJB". From what I can glean from the book, Spring is much more than a MVC or a Persistenece layer. As Dakota Jack already said, it's a light-weight j2ee application framework. It uses 'Dependency Injection' or 'Inversion of Control' to make configuration and testing of web-apps much more simpler. Good starting point: http://www.martinfowler.com/articles/injection.html Also, it uses AOP to handle security concerns and other "aspects". A lot of the book is also devoted to giving arguments to support "EJB is way too complex for most web applications" and "open-source alternatives are easier to use and maintain" and "don't distribute your objects". Ofcourse I can't do full justice to the book, but it convinced me enough to try out Spring sometime in my next project.
