Re: Help needed - submitting dynamic text boxes to ActionForm

[Jeff Beal]

Use indexed properties.  There's a lot of information on indexed 
properties in the Struts documentation and in the archives of this 
mailing list, so I won't go into detail here.  The basic idea of an 
indexed property is that your getters and setters have an extra (int) 
parameter that is the index of an array.  So, instead of:

 public void setProperty(String newPropValue);
 public String getProperty();
you have
 public void setProperty(String newPropValue, int arrIndex);
 public String getProperty(int arrIndex);
The property names in your JSP pages would look like 'property[34]'.
I don't use these very much, so that's about the end of what I can come 
up with off the top of my head this morning, but it should get you started.

Hi,
I am struck in the middle of one web application. I am using struts 1.1 
framework.
I have a form where I have nearly 12 text boxes per row, which are generated 
dynamically.
means I have a form where I have 12 text boxes per row and I am assigning name 
dynamically.[I am using plain jsp and javascript].
The number of text boxes depends on the value fetched from database.
suppose if my database value is 10, 
my form will be having 12 [Textboxes per row] * 10[no. of rows] = 120 textboxes. if the database value is 5, I will be having 60 textboxes.

my question is
How to write the action form.
I think it is a bad programming to write 120 properties and 240 methods [getter 
and setter].Also beacuse the textboxes changes depending on the database value, 
I think I cannot define 60 / 120 /200 properties and getter and setter methods.
How to handle this situation and submit the data entered by user to the action 
form, get them into Action class.
Any help on this is appreciated.
Thanks
Krishna.
