Hello Wicus,

<input type="text" size="30" maxlength="100" name="planet"
value="${(mechMap.postalAddress.planet)!"}">

In this line you have included extra double quote(") before } so remove it and give it a try...

Re: Apache OFBiz development

[Wicus <wi...@webmail.co.za>]

Thanks for the reply guys.

Though it does display now, the specific text box already has
"(mechMap.postalAddress.planet)!" within it... where it should actually wait
for user input before writing to / reading from the database...

http://www.nabble.com/file/p21542741/Planet%2BEntity.jpeg 



The entity definition was created within
\applications\party\entitydef\entitymodel.xml as

<field name="planet" type="name"></field>

within the <entity entity-name="PostalAddress" 
                  package-name="org.ofbiz.party.contact"
                  title="Postal Address Entity">

and above the </entity> line

thereby adding a new field named planet to the data entity PostalAddress

If I'm correct in the abovementioned, why is my text box reflecting the
(mechMap.postalAddress.planet)!  ???

Thanks for any advice once again.

Wicus

Re: Apache OFBiz development

[Wicus <wi...@webmail.co.za>]

Thanks once again to all whom replied to my query.

It is really appreciated.

The errata has been already submitted to
http://www.packtpub.com/support/book/apache-ofbiz-development-beginners-tutorial

and is as follows:-

page 41 	Code 	19 Nov 08

Under the heading 'Editing the User-Interface', in the code line:
value="${mechMap.postalAddress.planet)!"}"> 
the second double-quote and the exclamation mark should not be present. 
This code should read: 
value="${(mechMap.postalAddress.planet)}">
