Actually, it doesn't. I've been through that example pretty thouroughly. To add a new subscription, it puts up a form with only the fields for the new subscription (a separate page). It doesn't dynamically new form fields to an existing page.

It's part of the struts download, under webapps.

Its night now and no progress has been made. This is another action flow question. Maybe there is a sample somewhere that does this? I apologize that this is long. I have an action form that contains an ArrayList of items (lets say phone numbers). The form allows me to edit existing numbers or add new ones. When I go to the editPhoneNumbers.jsp page, it displays all of my phone numbers based on the ArrayList with a button to add another and a button to save the form. I start with a single phone number - e.g. my home number. If you hit "add", the form should be re-displayed with 2 phone number fields - my home one, and a new blank one - both editable. This is the action flow I currently have: editPhoneNumbers.do --> EditPhoneNumberAction.java (input is PhoneNumberForm - containing an ArrayList of numbers) - this loads my current phone numbers from the data store into the form. EditPhoneNumberAction --> editPhoneNumber.jsp - this displays the form. editPhoneNumber.jsp --> SavePhoneNumberAction.java (action = add | save) SavePhoneNumberAction.java - if the action is add, I add an empty PhoneNumber object to the ActionForm ArrayList, then I want to redisplay the form with the original item, and the blank new one. SavePhoneNumberAction.java --> editPhoneNumbers.do Loop is complete. I thought this would be as simple as adding a new item to the ArrayList in the form and forwarding on the original form. It doesn't work. I keep getting back (in the display) only my home phone number (the original form without the new object) I suspect it is related to this log message: "Recycling existing ActionForm bean instance of class ". Another interesting point is even though I explicitly set the action property of the form in SavePhoneNumberAction, it always comes into EditPhoneNumberAction as null. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
