What is the pattern for processing a form? Given: MyForm extends ActionForm MyFomAction extends Action MyForm.jsp displays the form using Struts 1.1 beta
1. Prior to calling MyFormAction.execute(), a MyForm() object is created by struts. In 1.0.x I would create the form object here. The struts example app was modified to accomodate this change. 2. In MyFormAction.execute() I call the form's set methods to setup the form's properties. 3. I save the form in the request attributes 4. The form is displayed by MyForm.jsp 5. The user hits submit button. 6. MyForm.reset() is called on a newly created MyForm(). 7. MyForm set methods are called on the form in step #6 8. I see the MyForm saved to the request attributes in step #3. 9. Struts calls MyForm.execute() with the form created in step #6 The problem is that struts is not giving me back the Form object saved in the request attributes in step #3 after the submit. Instead I get a new form obbject that was created in step #6. I want the one saved in the request attributes because it contains information needed to save the form back to the database or for a multipage form. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
