[s2] Form/action data binding not working

[Luciano Costa <mo...@gmail.com>]

Hi!

I'm trying to use a submit button outside the form I want to submit, but
it's not working.

<@s.submit 
	type="submit" 
	theme="ajax" 
	label="Salvar" 
	targets="divNewsForm" 
	formId="formNews"
	href="${urlNewsForm_Save}" />


In this case I want to submit the "formNews" form.


Att,

Assunto: Re: [s2] is there an equivalent for the old html:multibox tag?

In case someone else is trying to do the same thing, here is the 
solution I came up with.  Using a multiple s:checkbox instances with a 
name that points to a String[] did not give the results I wanted so I 
had to bag that idea.  Instead I did this ...

Action:

private String[] deleteIds = new String[0];
public String[] getDeleteIds();
public void setDeleteIds(String[] ids);

Jsp:

<s:iterator id="entry" value="someCollectionOfObjects">
   <s:checkboxlist name="deleteIds" list="{#entry}" listKey="id" />

   // do any other work using #entry
</s:iterator>


with this I can call getDeleteIds() in my action after a submit and it 
will return a String[] of all ids that were checked for deletion.  also, 
when the form is being populated in the jsp it will automatically check 
the box for each entry that had its id in the deleteIds array, so if 
there is a submission error then the checkboxes are properly repopulated.

the only downside so far is that s:checkboxlist automatically creates a 
label for each checkbox, which may not be desired.  i am just using css 
to "display:none" those labels as a work around, which isn't the best 
case scenario, but it works.
