dynamically rename form-bean?
I have an ActionForm in session scope. I cannot open two separate
browser windows at the same time to do edits, because they will share
the session form bean declared in struts-config.xml .
The easiest solution I can think of is to be able to dynamically alter
the form-bean name property from a static treeForm, to treeForm41,
treeForm43, for example.
I don't think this is possible with struts - can anyone confirm this
before I spend a lot of time implementing a new solution? I cannot put
the ActionForm in request scope because I have to share bean properties
and this particular bean cannot *easily* be passed using a String
conversion to form parameters.
Another solution I've considered is wrapping the bean properties in an
XML format, passing that as a form variable, and reassigning to the bean
in the Action class.
Any thoughts or comments are much appreciated.

I have the same problem and I am thinking about setting session variables in a
Lists. and add the
index of the list to the form.

Michael,
Thanks for your response. I recognize the browser/session issue - which
is why I'm having trouble coming up with a good solution for this
particular issue. =)
Users *will* open up multiple browser windows - and they won't read
documentation saying this is a bad idea. (Just being realistic.) So,
all of my beans are request scope except this particular one and a user
tracking bean. The bean in question has too many parameters (the
numbers change) to make request scope really possible without a great
deal of work, I think. :(
I had posted a while ago asking how people handled session level objects
and multiple windows, but didn't receive feedback. Makes me wonder if
this is a really *simple* issue or a really *tough* one.

I hate to throw a wrench into things but...
In IE if you open up a window from your current browser you do share the
session scope.
In Netscape, if you open up a whole new browser from the OS, they still
share session scope. Not sure how this impacts your app but you need to
consier this too possibly.
