xml as a datasource?

2004-10-01 Thread joe a.
I am in need of a document covering how to use xml as a data source
with struts.  If someone could post a link I would appreciate it. 
Also, what are the benefits to using xml as a datasource instead of a
db like mysql?

Thanks,
Joe

Re: Seeking advice for buying a Struts book

2004-09-29 Thread joe a.
I got my first app up by following the tutorial in Jakarta Struts Live

It taught me how to use the validation framework to get enterprise
level form validation up and running.  It took me a while to get it
right, but I think I would have been hopeless without it !

2004-09-28 Thread joe a.
Yes I tried google, and yes this question isnt about struts
specifically but it is a struts RELATED question that should be
allowed on the list (you can't use struts without an application
server).  I know I'm on your "kill list" dgraham (btw, what is more
lame, me asking a question, or you bragging about your KILL FILE, OMG
ITS A KILL FILE, WHAT OTHER KINDS OF E-PENIS ENHANCING FILES DO YOU
MAINTAIN?), but I have to reply to your comment.  I'm not wasting your
time unless you actually take the time to reply, which you have
already done.  so you actually wasted your own time.  what you should
have done is just ignored my message completely since you obviously
don't want to help anyone that isn't asking questions that you
personally feel are not "lame".

I think you're confused about who is wasting who's time.  And in case
you're still confused, your simple (and extremely LAME) question is
wasting the time of EVERY person on this list.  What you failed to

Have any of you guys read Jakarta Struts Live by Hightower?  Its
available for free here in pdf form:
http://www.theserverside.com/books/sourcebeat/JakartaStrutsLive/index.tss

Has a good tutorial (holy crap i just sneezed and shook my entire desk
causing the cd case to fall off my monitor) chapter that gets you up
and running fast.  Although I noticed a typo in his code that wouldnt
let me compile until i fixed.

Trying to highlate error causing fields

2004-08-08 Thread joe a.
I'm trying to use #3 on this page:
http://www.niallp.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/. It is a tag library that I'm
trying to use with my struts web app. But I have no clue how to use
the class file he provided. I don't know where to put it at compile
time, and it has a different package name than my current project
(package lib.framework.taglib;)
