Re: html:form windowstate
You can probably use the 'var' attribute of the portlet:actionURL tag to store the url as a variable which you can reference by an expression in the html:form tag. Take a look at the tag reference for the portlet tags (PLT.22.2) in the JSR168 spec [1] for details.

Hi Nils, I've tried your suggestion but it doesn't seem to be possible. The action attribute in html:form expects an Action URI, while actionURL creates an absolute URL.

Re: html:form windowstate
Are you using the struts 1 portlet bridge? (http://portals.apache.org/bridges/multiproject/portals-bridges-struts) Haven't used it myself, but I'd be surprised if the framework didn't support creating portlet urls. I have only used a WebSphere Portal-proprietary extension which (from what I remember) created portlet urls automatically.

I think you could get the Struts tags to be interpreted if you wrapped
them in a logic:iterate/ tag or a c:forEach/ tag, rather than in a
loop in a scriptlet. I can't imagine how it would work beyond that,
though. I guess since only one form is actually posted back, you'd be
OK as long as it went to an action with a form bean that matched the
form?
If the goal is just to have multiple submit buttons on the page that
do different things, you might try another approach:
Have one html:form/ with multiple html:submit/ tags, each one
having an onclick handler e.g.,
html:submit onclick=doSubmitOne() .../
Then, in Javascript, you could alter the action of the form like this:
function doSubmitOne() {
var form = document.forms[myForm];
form.action += ?method=submitOne;
form.submit();
}
Thus, the action would become sth.do?method=submitOne, and then in
your Action class you would have a form bean that could handle all the
fields from all your separate forms, and one method for each submit
button that would look at just the fields appropriate to that action.
Does that make sense?
It might not be the cleanest method, but it's not unlike something
I've used in the past.

Re: html:form / styleId in xhtml mode
I suspect this restriction is there to support the validator. XHTML
mandates the use of 'id' in place of 'name' in various situations.
That said, you can still predict what the 'id' value will be; in this
case, it will take the name of the FormBean associated with the form. So
your AJAX calls could just use that name to reference the form.

FormTag dictates that the styleId attribute cannot be set in the

The question is, why?
Couldn't it just as easily be done as the following?
if (this.isXhtml()) {
if (getStyleId() == null) {
renderAttribute(results, id, beanName);
} else {
renderAttribute(results, id, getStyleId());
}
}
We're using quite a bit of AJAX in our application and referring to
document elements by id quite regularly, not to mention that stylesheets
reference specific ids as well (i.e. all of our forms have a styleId
attribute). Going through and renaming all of the ids of the forms
doesn't seem very attractive. Can someone verify that it's necessary?

Re: html:form question
Scott Purcell wrote: Hello, I have a login that I call and displays its initial presentation. I am using the html:form action=login.do line for when I submit its values. But I want to put in some default values into the initial presentation. So upon reading about html:form it looks like I could use the following: html:form action=login.do name=loginBean type=com.ddi.dealer.bean.LoginForm I think the name and type attributes to html:form were deprecated at 1.1 and now no longer exist. Because in my struts-config.xml I have the following two sections form-beans form-bean name=loginBean type=com.ddi.dealer.bean.LoginForm / /form-beans action path=/login input=/jsp/login.jsp type=com.ddi.dealer.action.LoginAction name=loginBean scope=request validate=true forward name=Success path=/jsp/welcome.jsp / forward name=Failure path=/jsp/login.jsp / /action So I was hoping that that form line would call, create new loginBean and show the data in my initial feed. I'm not sure I know exactly what you are trying to do. But it sounds like you are trying to do what I would do in a standard setup Action/form processing Action pairing. I would have an Action that switches on the action mapping's parameter attribute. Two action mappings, same Action. One mapping would have parameter=viewLogin, the other parameter=doLogin. Both would name the form bean to instantiate/use, but the view mapping has validation turned off while the do mapping has validation turned on. Struts has various dispatch-type Actions that do this stuff more automatically but switching on a parameter works for me. In the Action, if I'm processing viewLogin, and I want default values, I invoke a populateForm method, passing 1) the form 2) a value object (presumably obtained from the model) used to set initial values. Hope that helps. Erik The submitting is good, It was just something I am not understanding. Anyone know why that does not work?

RE: html:form complains of bean missing
Hello Gunther,
I read last night about the tiles tempating functionality, so I have a little
better handle on it today. It actually is a nice way to create some parts of my
app, so I will revisit it today and try and prototype a couple of pages
together. But as far as handling the session expires, etc, I do not completely
understand how this is accomplished.
What I have today, is a extended Action class which I can call a method eg: if
(obj.isLoggedIn()) { type of method. So each of my pages has to go to the
action servlet.
Anyway, if you could show me how you are handling this, or be a litle more
precise that would really help me out.
I sincerely appreciate your time,
Scott

hi
if you want a single point where you can check if a user is logged in or
not, you can do something like the following:
create a class MyRequestProcessor extends TilesRequestProcessor (in this
case it is because i use tiles) and implement the process() method.
within this method check for the login var that you e.g. put into the
session.
in the struts-config.xml add
controller
processorClass=com.creative_it.webcreator.strutsext.MyRequestProcessor /
and everythings fine.
what you need to do in the MyReqestProcessor class is to exclude all URLs
from checking that are used for e.g. the login form, or an error message in
case something went wrong.
if you want to be very nice to your users, store the URL that the user
requested in the session, than redirect to the login form, and if everything
went fine with the login, send him to the page that he/she originally
requested.
if you want the code for this, let me know, i can provide it.

Subject: html:form complains of bean missing
First off, as I am learning Struts I just wanted to thank those, for bearing
with my learning curve and helping out so far.
Here is the issue:
I want to pass all my forms, even forms without params to the
com.skp.action.LoginAction action class, because this class handles the
isLoggedIn issue through a subclass of Action.
Anyway, I have a jsp page that has no params, so I have no bean to collect
user data, so I configured my action like so:
action path=/mainAdmin
type=com.skp.action.LoginAction
forward name=Success path=/jsp/admin/main.jsp redirect=true/
/action
Anyway, I just want to always use the LoginAction as a Front Controller to
my web app, and catch the status of logged-in etc.
This works well, but I have to use conventional html code and not the
html:form tag:
works:
!-- form name=foo action=/uniquepear/action/mainAdmin method=POST
-- does not work:
html:form action=mainAdmin
When I use the above I get this error in the browser:
javax.servlet.ServletException: Cannot retrieve definition for form bean
null at
org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImp
l.java:495)
at org.apache.jsp.main_jsp._jspService(main_jsp.java:175)
But I have no reason to have a bean for this action.
How does one handle this problem?
Thanks
Scott

RE: html:form complains of bean missing
hi scott,
well, i'll try my best.
here's the code from the execute method of MyRequestProcessor (that's the
one included in the struts-config.xml):
public class MyRequestProcessor extends TilesRequestProcessor {
public void process(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
throws IOException, ServletException {
HttpSession session = req.getSession();
String path = super.processPath(req, res);
String url = req.getRequestURL().toString();
String queryString = req.getQueryString();
// the next lines are there to allow deep linking
// we store the url that has been requested for future use
if ((queryString!=null) (!.equals(queryString))) {
url = url + ? + queryString;
}
if (session.getAttribute(Constants.SESSION_LOGIN_REFER_KEY)
== null) {
if (url != null) {
session.setAttribute(Constants.SESSION_LOGIN_REFER_KEY, url);
}
else {
//TODO: get main URL from property
session.setAttribute(Constants.SESSION_LOGIN_REFER_KEY,
http://localhost:8080/WebCreator/index.do;);
}
}
// no comes the important stuff
if (!checkForRealm(session)) {
if (!/login.equals(path)) {
super.doForward(/login.do, req, res);
}
}
super.process(req, res);
}
protected boolean checkForRealm(HttpSession session)
throws ServletException, IOException {
if (session.getAttribute(Constants.SESSION_USER_KEY) != null
) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}
}
so what it does is:
- get the current requested url for further reference and stores it in the
session if an atrribute with the same key does not exist (see deep linking
below)
- then it checks the session for the realm (that is the attribute that you
use to say the user is logged in)
- if it does not exist and if the request didn't go to /login.do, it
forwards the request to the action /login.do (which is a simple html with
username/password field)
- if it exists it redirects to the super class to process the request as
usual
- you need to implement the checkRealm() method with whatever you need to
check, my example is really simple but very common
with extending TileRequestProcessor (don't care that i extend
TilesRequestProcessor, you can extend the standard request processor the
same way) and adding the lines in struts-config.xml, each request that hits
the struts action servlet will go through MyRequestProcessor BEFORE the
typical struts tasks (action, form beans filling, etc) start. so this is the
right place to check security, authorization and authentication.
regarding deep linking: i want my customers to be able to store a bookmark
that points deep into the system. when they request this bookmark, they of
course need to login first. so i store the requested url in the session, and
if the login is successfull, i send a redirect to the browser to disply the
page the user requested with his bookmark.
this is done by sending a meta refresh command in the head of the resulting
login ok page, with the url containing the session attribute that has been
store with session.setAttribute(Constants.SESSION_LOGIN_REFER_KEY, url)
hope that helps, feel free to ask more if something is unclear.

Re: html:form complains of bean missing
Gunther,
Is there a reason you didn't do this using a servlet filter instead of
a custom request processor? IMO, servlet filters are less intrusive,
support filtering for JSPs and static pages as well as Struts actions,
and its easier to selectively apply them using URL patterns.
Also, I noticed that overrode the process method calling
super.process() at the end. I think it would have been better to
override processPreprocess() -- that's what its designed for.

Re: html:form action=... - Newbie
The reason is that in classical HTML; forms are expected to accept input. Struts stores the input data in an ActionForm; the traditional approach for what you are doing would be to use a link and not a button. -Bill Siggelkow Jacques wrote: Hi, Here's what I want to achieve : I have a form (call it INPUT). Let's say the form's action is ActionA.do. ActionA.do is mapped to com.mycompany.myclass, which can either forward to success or failure. In struts-config.xml, success is mapped to ActionB.do, and I want failure to be mapped to a simple JSP error page, call it failure.jsp. In other words, I don't want to re-display INPUT with errors (html:errors) : I want a completely different page, because it doesn't make sense in my application to re-display the INPUT form when this error occurs. In failure.jsp, I want to display the error message, and have a button that, when clicked, will return the user to some other page, mapped to ActionStart.do.

Re: html:form : pre-populating fields from the Action java code

Re: html:form and modules
I would guess its because its not really standard practice to submit a form to a handler from another module. It's kind of a weird flow if you ask me. Usually you'd submit to a handler in your own module and THEN forward to wherever else using SwitchAction. Anyway if the SwitchAction does not work, you can go the usual javascript way of dynamically changing the action attribute's value... % String url = response.encodeURL(request.getContextPath() + /another-module/myAction.do); % document.myForm.action = '%= url%'; document.myFormsubmit(); Not very elegant but it works.

Re: html:form and modules
Hi, Perhaps I'm misunderstandig the use of modules: I have a default module that handles basic webapp functionality (homepage forwarding, layout, etc) and other modules handle additional functionality such as user management (log in/out, registration, details modifications, etc) henc the need to forward actions from the default layer to the user login layer. Is this the correct approach, or should I stick to putting it all into one web application?

Re: html:form and modules
What I usually do is place the login functionality (and all common/general functionalities for that matter) in the default struts-config at the root context. Now if I have a more specific module or section in my app, i create a sub-context so that all action mappings for that particular submodule are on the same subcontext and struts-config file. An example is a user management module where you CRUD users for your app. Regards, -Yves- On Thu, 16 Sep 2004 10:36:21 +0100, Ricardo Gladwell [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Perhaps I'm misunderstandig the use of modules: I have a default module that handles basic webapp functionality (homepage forwarding, layout, etc) and other modules handle additional functionality such as user management (log in/out, registration, details modifications, etc) henc the need to forward actions from the default layer to the user login layer.

Re: html:form and modules
I don't think submitting a form to a separate module is allowed by the Struts tags. Actions are specific to each module. IIRC, You can define the same path in different modules and they will be treated as different mappings. You can even define forms with the same form name in different modules and they will be treated as different form bean configurations as well. You can hack your way around it, though, by manipulating the form tag using javascript, but then you'd have the problem of how to access the correct form through Struts tags.
