multi-step user registration ?

2006-01-17 Thread Harish Pathak
Hi all,

How can I handle multiple forms or multi-step user registration (multi step 
form) with Struts ?
I want to create 4 forms and it should show the data of all the forms when user 
click on the Submit button on the last form .
  
Please give me the idea...how to do that?
  Please send me the code if anyone has one

Thanks in advance

Something like this (live demo):
http://www.superinterface.com/strutsdialog/wizardaction.do
See the Wizard Action page:
http://struts.sourceforge.net/strutsdialogs/wizardaction.html
The project page: http://struts.sourceforge.net/strutsdialogs/

It is a little convoluted, but bulletproof. Your action form must
retain state between requests, that is, must have session scope.

Harish,

How about Struts Flow? I haven't used it but I have seen a post or two about it 
so I thought you might want to know
about it.

Hi

I have a link in my application for user registration form .

It has combo box in the form that need to be populated from database.

Say : Form action path is register.do and form name is register_form

What should be the link and how we have to do mapping in struts-config.xml

 Hi, 
 
 I am going to write an app that allow user to register in a JSP page,
 press submit, then user redirected to a new page telling user
 to check email, click on a link on email, redirected to a page,
 then commit user  info to database. If user doesn't do this
 within 24 hrs, then delete user info.
 
 I have no problem sending email with a unique link made up
 of unique username plus some random generated digits and characters.
 
 I was wandering if anyone has done this and give me some tips.
 
 The way I see it is commit user's registration detail to database 1st
 when user click submit, then send email (using jarkata mailer tag).
 
 Then delete user record if user don't click/visit link on dynamically 
 generated link within 24 hr from email. The link would have parameter
 that can tell an Action who is visiting.
 
 Problem:
 Now, how do I write an Action that will check back latter after 24 Hrs
 for an user?? Using thread in Action??? Dunno if that's a good idea.
 
 The way I am going to do this is, have an Action implement
 thread, for evey user registration, set wake up (check back)
 interval after 24 hr. Every user visiting this Action will wake
 up Action and do validation. After that, Action goes back to sleep.
 
 Is this a good idea??

Let's see... how many users on your website signing up for mail?  Which is going to 
leave how many threads hanging around in a 24 hour period?  Yuck.  Yuck.

What you are really looking for is outside of struts, since struts is only an MVC 
framework, not an application framework.

Re: Help on Action implementing thread for checking user registration thru email?

2004-08-19 Thread Erik Weber
You probably only need a javax.management.timer.Timer -- a single Thread 
that runs forever, invoking an event listener every so often. The Timer 
can be initialized and started by a ServletContext listener at 
application startup. The event listener queries the database, looking 
for new registrants. It checks to see if 24 hours have elapsed since 
they registered . . . etc.

Nope, you dont need to start another process - i use a struts plugin to load
and initialise Quartz.  It will run in other threads, but this will all be
done for you behind the scenes.

The code for my struts plugin is below (if it's of any help).  Add the
following entry to the struts-config-default.xml in the plug-in section to
load it:

plug-in className=com.netcase.pdp.service.SchedulerService/plug-in

It runs a Job every 30 mins.

This job takes the form:

public class RemoveOldProvisionalTrainingJob implements StatefulJob {
public void execute(JobExecutionContext arg0) throws JobExecutionException {
// code to do actual work here
}
}


Note that i'm implementing StatfulJob - this stops it running two of the
same job at the same time.

All this sounds very complex, what's wrong with encoding the time in the
url (securely) and testing it when you perform the action? Alternatively
store the request time and id on the server.

I second the below - when you pull the user info from the database check
the timestamp and in it's greater then 24hrs, delete it and kick the
user out... then you can just cleanup the database daily, weekly, etc at
off peak times... this way nothing is dependent on a job running...

RE: Help on Action implementing thread for checking user registration thru email?

2004-08-19 Thread Dhaliwal, Pritpal (HQP)
I think the issue here is that user will never return. 

So struts dude needs some kind of mechanism to check every so often to
see if the user has not returned in 24 hours. If the user has not came
back, he wants to delete that record.

So some timer mechanism is needed. His options.. Use resin application
server and use the run-at attribute for a servlet. You can schedule it
to run every hour or 30 mins or whatever. Or use JDK's Timer or Quartz
from open symphony. Or JMS..

I think quartz makes sense over here. 

My dos cientos (again)

Wow, u guys r super. So many help.

I will go with Daniel's solution. To maximize portability, I think the best
solution is
not to depend on DB timestamp to delete it as different DB will have
different
ways of doing it, hence learning new things if change new DB.

Thanks guys.

Help on Action implementing thread for checking user registration thru email?

2004-08-18 Thread struts Dude

Hi, 

I am going to write an app that allow user to register in a JSP page,
press submit, then user redirected to a new page telling user
to check email, click on a link on email, redirected to a page,
then commit user  info to database. If user doesn't do this
within 24 hrs, then delete user info.

I have no problem sending email with a unique link made up
of unique username plus some random generated digits and characters.

I was wandering if anyone has done this and give me some tips.

The way I see it is commit user's registration detail to database 1st
when user click submit, then send email (using jarkata mailer tag).

Then delete user record if user don't click/visit link on dynamically 
generated link within 24 hr from email. The link would have parameter
that can tell an Action who is visiting.

Problem:
Now, how do I write an Action that will check back latter after 24 Hrs
for an user?? Using thread in Action??? Dunno if that's a good idea.

The way I am going to do this is, have an Action implement
thread, for evey user registration, set wake up (check back)
interval after 24 hr. Every user visiting this Action will wake
up Action and do validation. After that, Action goes back to sleep.

Is this a good idea??

sD Can you be a bit more specific? Do you mean to use DB to set expired time
sD for each record to be 24 hr, if user not check back with Action, DB
sD will drop that record automatically??

Yes. I store preRegistration date in DB. So, I can easy drop expired
records during new user registration.
