> Hi Guys,
>
> I have a question about dynamic form elements that I was hoping someone
> could answer.
>
> Basically, I have a page I populate with elements from a database
> where the
> number of entries is unknown.
>
> For each of the rows retrieved, I extract some information and create an
> entry in a table on the page. Each of the rows has a text box associated
> with it - also generated dynamically. An Iterator tag is used to
> create the
> rows in the table and hence an index for each of the text box elements.
>
> My question is this, when I enter information into the text boxes, I would
> like this reflected onto my actionform automatically by Struts. However,
> because I don't know how many text boxes will be present on the page, I
> can't provide set methods for each one.
>
> So how is it done?
>
> Thanks in advance,
>
> Simon.
