Carlin Rogers commented on BEEHIVE-863: --------------------------------------- Hey Rich, When you look at this patch, I think there's one other change that should be made. Maybe you could make it in line. In the javascript routine to get the field name value pairs of the form, maybe we should comment out or move the "password" node type case down to the fields to ignore. I don't think we want to add the parameter in the url for the request as clear text. What do you think? > 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: Rich Feit > Priority: Critical > Attachments: j863-first-patch.txt, j863-patch2.txt, j863-patch3.txt > > 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
