LookupDispatchAction problem

[Tim Clotworthy <tc...@bka-inc.com>]

I am getting the following exception:

SupportOrgDispatchAction] does not contain handler parameter named
method

For this actionmapping:

<action path="/SupportOrgDispatchAction"
 
type="com.hotapp.fes.presentation.support.action.FESSupportOrgDispatchAc
tion"
   name="SupportOrgForm" parameter="method">
    <forward name="NextPage" path="/fes/jsp/FESSupportOrgTable.jsp"/>
</action>

against these tags in my jsp:

<html:submit property="method" value="    Query     ">
<bean:message key="button.selectOrgs">
</html:submit>

This is my first crack at subclassing the LookupDispatchAction. Any
ideas as to what I am doing wrong are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Are you sure you are passing in the form variable called "method" ? 
Make sure on the form that submits you have at the least a hidden
variable called "method" ie..

<html:hidden property="method" value="updateOrWhatever"/>

and then of course make sure the associated form has get/sets for
"method"

(side note: I like to use the parameter name "dispatch" instead of
method, although on my little tutorials I used the parameter
"methodToCall" thinking that would help give the idea of what's going
on, but that was probably more confusing).
