RE: Handling Multipart forms (sort of Wizard)

[Michael Mok]

Hi Victor

A high level sequence diagram

fillform.html ---> loadfirstpage.do ---> firstpage.jsp
firstpage.jsp --> savefirstpage.do --> loadsecondpage.do --> secondpage.jsp
secondpage.jsp --> savesecondpage.do --> loadthirdpage.do --> thirdpage.jsp
thirdpage.jsp --> savethirdpage.do.

See my responses  below.

Michael,

Regarding your proposed solution#2, design a mother
form bean that contains three child form beans. in
that case how the child form bean will be
instantiated?

STRUTS will initialise a form bean if the form bean is not initialised prior
to calling your action.perform() method.

and will these child form beans auto collect data
submited by users?

Yes, if you design one JSP page for each form bean.

Rgds,
Victor
