Re: iteration to create dynamic form.

[Ajay Patil <ap...@vertex.co.in>]

Dear Piers, 

Please try the following code. 

<logic:iterate id="record" name="user" 
property="siteSection.newRecords">
 <html:checkbox name="record" value="off" property="selectedFlag" />
</logic:iterate>

In your Form Bean,
- Implement following methods.
  public Boolean [] getSelectedFlag();
  public getSelectedFlag(Boolean [] flags);

In your Record class,
- Implement the methods. 
  public boolean getSelectedFlag();
  public boolean setSelectedFlag(boolean flag).

When the JSP is executed, the values for the checkboxes will be
retrieved from the collection of Record objects.

When the form is submitted, the setSelectedFlag method on Form
bean will be called.

Please let me know if this works for you.
Ajay

I have a <logic:iterate> tag which is supposed to create a dynamic 
form, filled with a checkbox for every object in a collection. (The 
checkbox is an option to delete one of those records from the 
database.) The form itself is a Map-Backed Action form with two methods 
(public void setValue(String key, Object value) and public Object 
getValue(String key)). 


<logic:iterate id="record" name="user" 
property="siteSection.newRecords">

<%
(dataobjects.Record) l = (dataobjects.Record)pageContext.findAttribute
("record");
String name= new String("value(" + r.getID()+")");
%>
<tr" height="30">
<td align="center">
<html:checkbox value="off" property="<%=name%>" onclick="CheckMBRow
(this)"/>
</td> <td> ..other stuff describing the record..</td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>

Is there a way in Struts to do this without calling the "record" object 
from the pageContext? Can't I get the <html:checkbox> tag to recognize 
the 'record' bean directly without using that scriptlet and then 
creating a String to set the appropriate mapped value? 

Best,
Piers
