Rob, I did something similar today. I went through a lot of the same steps as you and here is what I finally came up with (using your code):
<logic:iterate id="el" name="reallySimpleForm" property="names" indexId="i"> <bean:define id="url1" value="javascript:subForm(document.forms[0],'del','" /> <bean:define id="url2" value="');" /> Name: <bean:write name="el"/> <html:link href="<%= url1+i+url2"><bean:message key="link.delete"/></html:link><BR> </logic:iterate> I'm not sure if this is the best solution, but it's working. -Karen -----Original Message----- From: Rob Breeds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2001 3:53 PM To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: links to javascript with index variables I then tried this, using a scriptlet to create the javascript first: <% String tryit = "javascript:subForm(document.forms[0],'del','"+i+"');"; %> Name: <bean:write name="el"/> <html:link href="<%= tryit %>"><bean:message key="link.delete"/></html:link> and that works too! Now can someone clever please share with me how to do this elegantly without reverting to scriptlets? Thanks!

Why doesn't it work when the same code is put into the Struts <html:link href> attribute ?

Thanks Rob Rob Breeds/UK/IBM@ To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> IBMGB cc: Subject: links to javascript with index variables 15/11/2001 22:58 Please respond to "Struts Users Mailing List" In my ActionForm I have a collection of names which is added to dynamically. If I want to give each name its own delete link I'm doing this with iterate: <logic:iterate id="el" name="reallySimpleForm" property="names"> Name: <bean:write name="el"/> <html:link href ="javascript:subForm(document.forms[0],'del');"><bean:message key ="link.delete"/></html:link><BR> </logic:iterate> (where subForm is a JavaScript function to submit the form, and set an action, of 'del' in this case) but how do I add an index value into the javascript call for the link? To generate something like: <html:link href="javascript:subForm(document.forms[0],'del', 0) (last param being the index) <html:link href="javascript:subForm(document.forms[0],'del', 1) <html:link href="javascript:subForm(document.forms[0],'del', 2) . . . Is the only way to do this using scriptlets?
