howto cache the textfield
I have a textfield where a user input information.
<s:textfield name="employee.destination" label="Destination"
required="false" size="15" />
My question is this: how can I give the user previous input that he provided
once he clicks the textfield; in other word, when he clicks (or double
click) the textfield he can see (in a drop down box) what he entered before.
for some reason, this works for some textfields and for some it doesn't (I
guess it's not a struts issue).
but still I wonder how to do that.
thank you!

Hi,
you can create ajax action that will call your application and ask for
the last entered values for field myField.
But it would require to remember all entered values by users.
When you will have those values You can simply do something like google suggest.
I haven't done anything like that, so i cant be more specific,
it's just a matter of remebering entered values per field and using
ajax to grab them.
Best greetings,
Paweł Wielgus.

adding ajax to this field" how can I achieve that?

Hi xianwinwin,
Pawel is correct, when you have a text field with name="Something" next time you come to page that contains text field with same name then you can double click it and get it.
I still did not get what you want to do, add the feature for not getting text fields, or remove feature for already getting text fields?

Hi xianwinwin,
it's a firefox feature - remember entered form values or something like this,
so yes it has nothing to do with struts.
But You can achieve the same by adding ajax to this field
and remembering all posted data in Your app.
