Carlin Rogers commented on BEEHIVE-863: --------------------------------------- I'm going to make a first pass at a patch for this issue, but not be included with or part of v1. > Passing a FormBean to a popup > ----------------------------- > > Key: BEEHIVE-863 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-863 > Project: Beehive > Type: Improvement > Components: NetUI > Reporter: Jack Rudnick > Assignee: Carlin Rogers > Priority: Critical > > A popup is currently reached via a nested action, however, you can't pass a > FormBean (and more importantly, its values) from a parent action to the > nested action for use in the popup. An example of how you may want to use > this would be: > > 1) parent form/page has a "To" text field in a form. > > 2) I type in "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > > 3) click the button (netui:button popup=true) to trigger the > popup in the parent page > > 4) popup has its own form/page that has a "To" text field. > > 5) When the popup renders, the popups "To" field should be > prepopulated with the "hello [EMAIL PROTECTED]" value. > You can currently pass the values of a popup to the parent, thus you should > be able to go the other way (pass the parent values to the popup) with a > given framework way other than constructing some javascript to do this in a > custom manner. One reason why this probably doesn't currently work, is when > you click the netui:button it doesn't submit the parent form, thus the form > and values don't get persisted for use by the popup. > This is currently a very limiting shortcoming of using popups. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
