I'm doing the same exact thing right now. It took some doing to figure out
how to make it work. But anyway, I have an EntryHolder class in the session
that stores a few ArrayLists of entries. It also stores a String[] of the
entry numbers to delete. The following code gets the selected index numbers
and stores them in that deletion array. When the form is submitted, the
user is taken to a confirmation page. When the user clicks the confirmation
link, the action calls a method on the EntryHolder class that simply tells
it to delete the selected entries, which is simple to do.
The code in my JSP includes the following:
________________________________________________
<html:form action="/EditEntry.do?action=confirm&type=md">
<table border="0">
<tbody align="left">
<logic:iterate id="md" name="entries" property="mdEntries"
type="com.moog.us.eos.beans.MDentry" indexId="index">
<tr>
<td>
<html:checkbox name="entries" property="selections"
value="<%=index.toString()%>"/>
</td>
<td>
<bean:write name="md" property="label"/>
</td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>
</tbody>
</table>
<html:submit value="Delete Selected Entries"/>
</html:form>
________________________________________________
My solution may be somewhat unconventional, but I think it works great. I'm
not sure how applicable this design is to what you're doing, but it sounds
like you're trying to do the same thing. However, if you're using the
Display Tag Lib and displaying info column by column, you'll just have to
make some changes in the JSP. Should be pretty simple though.
I hope this helps.

You mentioned that you had a bunch of features.... You dont happen to
have one that works with the multicheckbox control? I want to add a
delete checkbox to each row...

Ed had a BOF at JavaOne this year to sort of show how he came up with
that
tag lib and how it works. It's very straightforward, easy to use, and
easy
to modify. I've already added a bunch of features that I'm going to
submit
back to him, and they all were extremely easy to implement. If anybody
has a
table tag they are in love with that seems like it's better than this,
I'd
love to hear about it!
