I'm not entirely sure what you're after - do you mean get a string with the contents populated by another jsp - independent from the current request being served? I created a test jsp in tomcat containing a jsp:include / tag, ran it and looked in tomcat's work folder at the servlet code generated

I guess your first place to look would be DynaActionForm - this base class dynamically creates FormAction objects setting the properties from the struts-config file. http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/action/DynaAction Form.html DynaValidatorActionForm adds validator support

What about if you move the javascript to below the form in the page? Unless the javascript is being called by an onload in the body tag, it will need to be below the form elements for them to exist when the javascript executes. -Original Message- From: Colm Garvey [mailto:[EMAIL

at the source, the code is indeed below the form. I'd like to attach it to an body onload event trigger, but that's going to require extending the struts classes and I'm trying not to digress too much from the norm. Any other suggestions? Colm -Original Message- From: Brendan Richards

Populating the select objects via javascript isn't too scary - just make sure you do a thorough cross-browser test (which you should be doing anyway) Javascript: var theForm = document.forms['formName'] gets you the form object. theForm.mySelectBox - gets you the select box object

validwhen validation question

2004-03-18 Thread Brendan Richards
I'm looking at using validwhen for a complex validation. I've got a value that can either be ignored when another parameter is set or is valid when it's a date. A simple date validation would be something like this: field property=date depends=required,date arg0 key=myForm.date/

You could have as many parameters as you want I thought you could only use up to four (arg0 to arg3). The dtd for validaton.xml only contains these elements. Or can you use more when creating a message in code rather than through validation.xml ? -Original Message- From: Wiebe de

Add the following headers to your js/staticJavascript.jsp file to tell your browser not to cache it: % response.addHeader(Cache-Control, no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate); // HTTP/1.1 response.addHeader(Pragma, no-cache); response.setDateHeader (Expires, 0); //prevents caching at the proxy %

RE: SSLEXT

2004-03-17 Thread Brendan Richards
I think your forward will have to have redirect=true. Otherwise it will still be the same http request and therefore the same protocol. Using redirect=true causes a http redirect header to be sent causing the browser to fire a new request. I'm not sure on any of the above. Please correct me if

RE: Single Checkbox Required

What makes a checkbox unusual is that it only submits a value when checked - when unchecked nothing is submitted. You should therefore be able to validate that it's been checked with a standard required validator. -Original Message- From: Morowitz, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

If the sole purpose of your link is to call the client side javascript function submit() do you really need to use html:link ? It ads no functionality for you and just wastes server side processing time converting the html:link tag to the final output a href=. html:link/ is hugely useful to
