Subject: Re: Multiple submit buttons solution From: "Pim" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> === Ok,
What I want is using multiple actionforms. The reason for this is because I want to use different validations. I want no validation for create, I want a validation for Save and I want a validation for say, fetch.Validations for save and fetch are different. What I don't want is one actionform with an if -then -else statement saying if create, then do this, if save then do that. I want to have one superclass with the properties of the jsp and the subclasses for different actions(create, save, fetch). So what we figured out was different mappings for the different actions (create, save, fetch). The problem however is that the <html:form action = 'create'> can only contain one action of course. Our solution to that is with the help of javascript we change the action. For example if I press the fetch button, the action becomes one like this: <html:form action = 'fetch' > So, does this makes sense? Are we on the right track or are we missing something?
