Submit not passing the form input to the action
Hi,
I have a use case in which we iterate through the items in the list and
display them on the page. We do that with s:iterator tag.
<s:iterator value="actionItems">
<tr>
<td><s:property value="creatorName" /></td>
<td><s:property value="assignedTo" /></td>
<td><s:property value="creationDate" /></td>
<td><s:property value="dueTo" /></td>
<td><s:property value="externalItemNumber" /></td>
<td><s:property value="description" /></td>
<td><s:property value="currentStatus" /></td>
<td width="100"><s:property value="status"/></td>
<td>*<s:select name="actionStatus" headerKey=""
headerValue="Change Status" list="statuses" />*
</td>
<td>
<s:hidden name="id"/>
* <s:submit value="Update" name="update" />*
</td>
</tr>
</s:iterator>
I have a s:submit tag that inovkes the appropriate action class and method.
For update to work, I have to to update the back end with a new pull down
menu value from db and is given below:
*<s:select name="actionStatus" headerKey=""
headerValue="Change Status" list="statuses" />*
I also have a hidden field "id" that I used to identify the identity of the
bean to be updated and is given below:
<s:hidden name="id"/>
and I have a submit button for every entry in the list being iterated
My issues is that my action class is not getting any value from "id" and
"actionStatus" field even though they are defined in my action class. I
don't know what is going wrong. The action is being invoked but these fields
have a null value.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kartik

Hi Martin,
Thanks for replying. I loked at I am iterating through the collection to
display some the items as follows:
<s:iterator value="actionItems">
<tr>
<td><s:property value = "status" /></td>
<td><s:select name="action" headerKey=""
headerValue="Change Status" list="statuses" />
</td>
<td>
<s:hidden name="id" />
<s:submit name="update" value = "Change"/>
</td>
</tr>
</s:iterator>
There is a submit button for every row. I want to update the value of a bean
attribute status with the value from the drop down. I have tried to change
the invocation from submit to get using <s:action><s:param name ="idValue"
value = "id" /></s:action>. But I am not able to get status attribute to be
populated in my action class.

RE: Submit not passing the form input to the action
Posted by Martin Gainty <mg...@hotmail.com>.
the list attribute defined is the variable bound from the action as seen here with a bound Collection variable called availableItems
<s:select list="#skillAction.availableItems" listKey="name" label="Main Skill"
name="currentEmployee.mainSkill.name"/>
public abstract class AbstractCRUDAction extends ActionSupport {
private Collection availableItems;
the hidden field needs a value attribute and a id attribute as seen here:
<s:hidden id="project-name" name="project-name" value="Struts 2" />

@Nikhil No action form used as I am using Struts2. Each row has a submit
button.

Can you please also provide ActionForm details ?
Is your page like this? (I am not aware abt struts 2 tags)
<form action="someAction">
.......
<s:iterator value="actionItems">
<tr>
<td><s:property value="creatorName" /></td>
<td><s:property value="assignedTo" /></td>
<td><s:property value="creationDate" /></td>
<td><s:property value="dueTo" /></td>
<td><s:property value="externalItemNumber" /></td>
<td><s:property value="description" /></td>
<td><s:property value="currentStatus" /></td>
<td width="100"><s:property value="status"/></td>
<td>*<s:select name="actionStatus" headerKey=""
headerValue="Change Status" list="statuses" />*
</td>
<td>
<s:hidden name="id"/>
* <s:submit value="Update" name="update" />*
</td>
</tr>
</s:iterator>
......
</form>
*One form tag covering s:iterator.*
*
*
In that case even if you have one submit button per row, whole form will be
submitted and your actionForm will be populated.
Regards,
Nikhil

Not sure about struts 2, but in struts 1.3, there will need to be a
collection object in the action form and this will need to be instantiated
while declaring. And there needed to be getters and setters for the entire
collection as well as inidiviual members with index.
