How to set attributes of Bean?
What about making a method and call it in the perform action in one of the steps, or use the setters there directly? I do not know how your actions work but, for example, if your DatabaseSelectAction returns a ResultSet with just one record, iterate through it and use the setter methods of the Model Bean for each of the wanted columns. Making controls in the XML pages referencing the model bean properties should be enough then. Manipulate the data in the form editing the required fields, and then use your DatabaseUpdateAction (again in the perform action, for example after checking the button that was pressed in the form). I only tried this with Xindice and loading query results in DOM Nodes, but I'm sure it'll work with a relational database, too. Hope it helps. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
