nested references and javascript

[Steve Widmar <sw...@irf.com>]

I've got a question about this subject that's probably obvious to experienced users.

I've searched the mail archives on the subject and haven't found any joy, so here's my puzzler:

I'm starting to use nested references in 1.0.2...
for example: <html:text property="foo.bar" />

The framework is working fine, as I've got a getFoo() on the named bean with a getBar() and it shows in the html form in the browser.

When i try to update existing javascript to match the new nest-compliant name, it dont work :-(
for example:  Number(document.forms[0].foo.bar.value);
generates the following error message:  document.forms[0].foo has no properties.

So the $.64 question:  ->  am i doing it wrong, or is it undoable?

I guess it's more of a 'javascript-users' issue, but i figgered someone here has hit this already

(Why 1.0.2? The app's been in production for a while on 1.0.2... (BTW, thanks struts-dev)).

Thanks, 
Steve

You can use an alternate sytax.

Example:
Number(document.forms["myForm"].elements["foo.bar"].value);
  or
Number(document.forms[0].elements["foo.bar"].value);
