I don't think this is just a javascript question - more like
how does one use javascript and struts together to create a
dynamic application.

RE: [OT] JavaScript: ActionForm Does Not Contain Dynamically Set Data
Posted by Art Vandalay <av...@yahoo.com>.
Mr. Police Man,
If you read the question you'll see that my script
*IS* setting field correctly ( I made that very clear
in my original post). My question is how do I get
those values set in an ActionForm when when the page
is being displayed (not at submit time).

RE: [OT] JavaScript: ActionForm Does Not Contain Dynamically Set Data
Posted by James Mitchell <jm...@apache.org>.
Actually, this has nothing to do with Struts.
If your script is not setting fields (on parent, top, child, whatever)
correctly, then you cannot assume that it is a problem with Struts.
Struts picks up when the request comes in, anything before that is
outside the scope.
On the other hand however, there are a lot of people on this list with
JavaScript knowledge, but there are many more who would prefer that we
use [OT] to designate that this discussion is not related.
If you find that you are constantly dealing with JavaScript, perhaps
(assuming you are on windoze) you can download and use the
ScriptDebugger for IE. It lets you step through JavaScript with or
without frames.
Good Luck!

I don't believe this is off topic. This question
regards how to get Struts to populate a form field
that was set using Javascript.
