Oh, you mean rows, not columns. In that case you want a list of objects, where each object is a row. You grab each field from the resultSet, stuff it into a bean, and then stuff the bean into a collection. Then you put the collection in the scope of your choice. > > andy > > On Wed, 14 Jul 2004 10:01:05 -0700, Jim Barrows > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: Andrew Close [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Sent: Wednesday, July 14, 2004 9:58 AM > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Subject: More fun with forms... > > > > > > > > > Hi all, > > > > > > i've looked through a couple articles detailing the use > of ActionForm > > > and DynaActionForm, but i haven't found anything that > explains how to > > > build a dynamic form. dynamic meaning i don't know how > many elements > > > will be on the form since it will vary based on the amount of data > > > returned in the query. > > > example: > > > i have a table that i'm populating and i would like a > comment field to > > > be editable. so for each row in the table i will have > one editable > > > field. i've done this before, but not with Struts. how > do i set up > > > my ActionForm to handle this? > > > > Map backed form I believe would do this...
