I would suggest you use nested beans Regards Rohit

I have a dynamic table with a list of entries. Every row can be changed in one view and when the user submits it, everything is updated at once. How can I do this with struts? Rendering form elements with struts requires a property, but since I use multiple rows, all with the same property name (as a prefix, the unique id (can be text also) of the row forms the suffix), this cannot be done in a struts form. How do I do it? I currently used pure HTML for this and generated the names of the fields by adding the unique key value of the row. The rows names would look like this: nameXXX salaryXXX addressXXX nameYYY salaryYYY addressYYY etc. My processing action now has to run through ALL the parameters sent and figure it out with something like: if (param.startsWith("name") { id = param.substring(4); salary = request.getParameter("salary" + id) // etc, until you have the complete record // then update the record Is there a better way do to this? And can it be done with struts forms? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
