prefill form bean ahead of the jsp
Hi all
Can I prefill the values of my form bean ahead of displaying the jsp page
that is associated with this form?
If yes, how?
I am trying not to override the values entered by the user on this result
page.
Because when an error occurs the page is redisplayed and since I am getting
the values from an object that I store in the session,
the fields are reset back to their original values.
Thanks

Found it.
The struts frame work was not finding all the classes required to create the
form bean so it was giving me a null value instead of throwing an exception.

Sure just do it in Action before you go the form or if you know they
will always be the same values you can set them as default or intial
values in your ActionForm/DynaActionForm.

You definitely should be populating your form on the JSP from values in
Session (well, the exception would be select options lists). I like to
set up certain intial form values in a setUp dispatch or regular
SetUpAction since the setUp is often based on 'who' is logged in.
There's a real basic example in lesson 1 here http://www.reumann.net/

Thanks
I am actually doing as per example, but in my action class the form is null
!!!
I mean it does not seem to create an instance of the associated form and
pass it into the execute().
Any ideas to what I am doing wrong?

Subject: prefill form bean ahead of the jsp
Hi all
Can I prefill the values of my form bean ahead of displaying the jsp page
that is associated with this form?
If yes, how?
I am trying not to override the values entered by the user on this result
page.
Because when an error occurs the page is redisplayed and since I am getting
the values from an object that I store in the session,
the fields are reset back to their original values.
Thanks
