And I am getting a null pointer exception from this line in the ActionForm:To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] DataSource dataSource = (DataSource) servlet.getServletContext().getAttribute(Action.DATA_SOURCE_KEY);To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] What I am trying to do is use the ConnectionPool provided by Struts. This call works great in my Action but doesn't work in my ActionForm.On the IRC channel (irc.freenode.net #struts) we have been discussing the merits of putting a DB call in an ActionForm.To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SOoo, my main question is,How do I ask the context for the connection pool in an ActionForm?To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] But I would also love to see discussion about the merits of putting a DB call in an ActionForm at all. If I didn't put the call in the ActionForm how would I get the data from the DB call into the actionForm?To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks in advance for all your help,SteveTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --__--__-- Message: 2 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: "V.

So before the action, test the bean, including the option bean, basically an iteration of names and properties. Then add a toCollection method that returns .... the collection so you can use Options Collection. hth, .V Steven Citron-Pousty wrote: > Greetings all:I am trying to populate the options for a select list from > a DB >call.

The new version can be downloaded from the FormsPlayer site: http://www.FormsPlayer.com/ As well as using tags from the XForms 1.0 CR, there are quite a few new features, many of which are illustrated with updated samples. Some of these will make building internet applications much easier: - Saving and loading to local files is fully working. This allows forms to be completed offline, and then submitted at a later date. There is a sample that shows this, as well as demonstrating one technique for producing a wizard. - Using @appearance="compact" with xf:select1 and xf:select causes the processor to use a tree view control to render the items. This is very useful when choices are nested, since it helps guide the user in their selection. - The data type now influences rendering of the user interface. At the moment this is confined to dates, but more will be added. - A submission method of 'text-xml-post' has been added so that we can submit "text/xml" documents, which is needed for SOAP 1.1 applications. (SOAP 1.2 uses "application/xml+soap".) - COM interfaces have been added to the model element as per section 7.2, so allowing script access to the instance data from IE. A sample illustrates this.
