My solution to this sort of thing is use multiple items with a surrogate
key (if you want)...
i.e.
<input type="hidden" name="taskid" value="1"/>
$taskName
<input type="text" name="effort" value="0"/>
<input type="hidden" name="taskid" value="1"/>
$taskName
<input type="text" name="effort" value="0"/>
<input type="hidden" name="taskid" value="2"/>
$taskName
<input type="text" name="effort" value="0"/>
<input type="hidden" name="taskid" value="3"/>
$taskName
<input type="text" name="effort" value="0"/>
<input type="hidden" name="taskid" value="4"/>
$taskName
<input type="text" name="effort" value="0"/>
and so on...
then on the server side you just do a
public void doInsert(RunData data, Context context) throws Exception {
int[] taskids = data.getParameters().getInts("taskid");
int[] efforts = data.getParameters().getInts("effort");
for (int i =0; i < taskids.length; i++) {
...
Do whatever you need to do with taskids[i] and efforts[i]
...
}
}
