Adam,
I missed the point about adding the index to the input field name. I was simply naming the field the same thing. It actually worked, but it worried me. Thansk for all of the help! :)

They're indexed! 0 becomes 0, 1 becomes 1 etc., i.e.=== message truncated ===
the order they went out with remains the same when they come back in. I
think you must be missing the point here somewhere....

appear in the array in the same order the
parameters
in the URL line.

Yes, but because they're indexed, you will see the result as an array.

I'm not sure about one thing though. If I name
all of
my inputs on the HTML page the same name, when I submit the form, won't only one of the inputs be passed along?

I think I see what you mean. If all you want is
a
list of product Id's and the number of units per id, then your
priority
is to use indexed properties, rather than DynaForm or normal Form.
If you are using indexed properties, you just
name
the field one name, e.g. productId, and the indexing gives the field
unique names when in a list, e.g. productId[0], productId[1] etc.
Similarly
with units[0], units[1]

Currently, we are a stateless application. So
on
each
request we will read the database and get a
list
of
products.
Then our JSP will generate a from a list of
products.
Each product will have an input that can accept
the
number of units per product.
The problem I have is that each input field
needs
a
different name. How can I map these different
names
back to a list on a ActionForm?
Also, I don't really see how DynaForm helps
this
problem.

Yes you can have indexed properties &

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?

Unfortunately, products can be added at
runtime

therefore I don't know what the full set
is.
