formbean with List field

[Hamster <st...@site-systems.de>]

 
I'm wondering if I can have a formbean containing a List of Strings. Is
that recognized by Struts correctly?
 
I need that for a shopping cart implementation, where the user can
modify the amount of the articles in the shopping cart. For each article
should be a text field for entering a number. So I think I need here a
List of Strings in the form bean, right?
 
How does the implementaion look like in the form bean?

I have had more luck with String[] than ArrayList.

This sounds like a set of indexed properties-- you'd need to keep the
quantity 'lined up' with the item number, and you can't depend on the order
of the parameters in the request.  (In practice, they arrive in the order
shown on the HTML form, but that's not guaranteed.)  If not indexed
properties, then nested beans in the form.
