I'm trying to create a custom d2w component that extends ERDCustomEditComponent.

What I want is a to many component that you can select a Person EO
 and if you click a link "new..." you can create a new Person eo and enter  the Person.name.

So far I can select the Person EO with no problem and I can create a new Person EO, BUT I cannot get what is typed into the WOTextField to update the Person.name value.

My WOTextField simply connects to the person object in the component.

<wo:textField value = "$person.name"></wo:textField>

If I look at the the form values coming from the worequest in takeValuesFromRequest I can see the string in the dictionary.

 public void takeValuesFromRequest(WORequest r, WOContext c) {
        super.takeValuesFromRequest(r,c);
     System.out.println(r.formValues());
    }

{0.3.4.5.0.1.0.0.2.0.0.5.0.0.2.0.3.3.2.2.0.7.0.0.0.5.1.1.0.2.5.0.1.3.0.0.4.1 = ("Name"); 0.3.4.5.0.1.0.0.2.0.0.5.0.0.2.0.3.3.2.0.3 = ("1"); 0.3.4.5.0.1.0.0.2.0.0.5.0.0.2.0.3.3.2.0.5 = ("Add"); 0.3.4.5.0.1.0.0.2.0.0.5.0.0.2.0.5.3.3 = (""); wosid = ("PAAAvE86f69I8vC3Kh012g"); }


So far the only way I can get this to work if I add an id to the WOTextField and change takeValueFromRequest.  But this doesn't seem right.

<wo:textField value = "$child.name" id = "name"></wo:textField>

public void takeValuesFromRequest(WORequest r, WOContext c) {
        super.takeValuesFromRequest(r,c);
     System.out.println(r.formValues());
     person().setName( (String)r.formValueForKey("name") );
    }

Is there a better way to do this?
