Normally the fields are first initialized with the values of the form bean. Because of this you have to have for each used field in your form a getter method in the form bean. Otherwise you get this error message.
The page calls the form bean to obtain the initial values from this form Oliver -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: Amir N. Nashat [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 6. Februar 2002 18:31 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: Form bean I am using a form bean for a page called X. Page X has about 6 html elements of which 2 are hidden. Now when this page first renders do the values get initialized from the bean or from the values I explicitly obtain from some business objects I use on the page? The reason I ask is because a weird situation had occurred where I was not passing in one of the values in the query string and I got a 'can not find getter method for element a for Page X'. I just want to know if a page that uses a form bean calls it to not only validate information but to also obtain the initial values for the form elements. Is this true?
