Yes you can have indexed properties & dynaforms. I do not use them, I prefer nested properties. But I think the docs are quite good on this topic.

Re: your problem, I was just asking about categories because I have no concept of how your database stores your products. Looking at your database should give you ideas how to design the data model in your business & view layers.

Do you store / 'persist' your products somehow? Or do they only last as long as the user's session? Do you use a database?

All we have is a product ID. There is no category. How do you think category could help?

Also, have you used an indexed property and DynaForm?

Still it depends. How does the database handle the
new products? Can you at least categorise them?

Hi Cornellious,
it depends whether you know beforehand what the

set of possible fields could be, or whether the fields themselves
are not limited in name or type.


If the former, then it would be easy to make a

form


that defined them all, and to use logic tags to display the needed
fields or not in JSP.

I have a JSP page that will display quantity

How can I set up my ActionForm to handle the list

Thanks for any help.
