Hi David, I have tried endless variations of the hidden variable in each row trick you suggested. It seems like it should be very simple, but each time I run into the problem of the variable I pass in to "value" does not get evaluated, instead it comes through in the html as the literal I pass in to it. Below is an example of what I have tried doing. As you can see, I have put two variations of the variable I am trying to use in the table to make sure that part is working, and it is. Can I ask you how you got this to work?
Thank you in advance for any help. -- Larry Maturo [EMAIL PROTECTED] <logic:iterate id="org" name="<%= Constants.ORG_LIST %>" scope="session" type="com.athensgroup.projtrack.controller.org.OrganizationForm"> <bean:define name="org" property="id" id="orgId" /> <tr> <td> <html:submit property="id" value="Edit" /> </td> <td><bean:write name="org" property="mnemonic" filter="true"/></td> <td><bean:write name="org" property="fullName" filter="true"/></td> <td><bean:write name="org" property="type" filter="true"/></td> <td><bean:write name="org" property="id" filter="true"/></td> <td><bean:write property="orgId" filter="true"/></td> <td> <bean:write name="org" property="parentOrgName" filter="true"/> <html:hidden property="theOrgId" value="orgId" /> </td> </tr> </logic:iterate> -----Original Message----- From: David M.

One approach is not to try to determine which edit button was pressed, but to use a hidden field in a form in each table row to encode the OID of the object in that row. Each form row submits to the same action. -- =================================================================== David M.
