(off topic) Servlet getInitParameter() methods

Folks, I'm using Tomcat 4.01, and I'm seeing behavior that makes me wonder if it's part of the servlet spec. In a method called by my servlet.init(ServletConfig) method, I'm calling config.getInitParameter to successfully get a parameter from my web.xml file. However, if at the same point in

RE: Dynamic drop down lists

Michael, Rather than use an array of Strings for the collection, I'd recommend wrapping each item in a bean with label and value properties. For instance, I've done just that for a collection of States, where the label property is called Name and the value property (which is stored in the db

Forwarding a Bean as a Request Attribute

I retrieve a Collection of items from a database and present them to a user inside a table populated by a logic:iterate tag. In the body of the iterate tag, I have an html:link tag to send the user to a page with details about that item. How can I forward just the selected item as a request

What you are really asking is how to have different buttons fire different actions. There are several approach to this. The JavaScript approach is described here: http://jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=543699 There is also the new org.apache.struts.actions.LookupDispatchAction in the nightly

JavaScript -- use or not use???

Hi folks, This isn't exactly a struts question but I have seen comments about JavaScript often enough I was hoping someone could answer this very general question. The people I work use struts but are avoiding JavaScript because they say that some clients may have JavaScript functionality

RE: JavaScript -- use or not use???

Absolutely. IE calls it Active Scripting, and it is at the bottom of the Internet Options dialog. I run with Javascript off so I don't have to look at advertising popups and other look at me!!! shenanigans. A small but significant population of web-luddites do this. Best to sniff for it

Re: JavaScript -- use or not use???

Thanks for the replies Steve, Mark. Borland Enterprise Server 5.0 is running JDK 1.3.1 and Tomcat 4.0.1. The struts web app I'm deploying is the struts/velocity example from Ted, and has the updated struts and commons-disgester. It would seem this combination should be ok, any other ideas? Mark

RE: JavaScript -- use or not use???

I'll just add that it's a shame to throw the baby out with the bathwater, avoiding use of JavaScript altogether. Yes, the cross-browser issues are real, for even reasonably substantial use. But there are lots of things one can do that are simple yet supported in the oldest implementations of
