Subject: JSP and Form Pulldown that depends on another Form Pulldown
Hello
I have an architectural / design with Forms, JSP, and dependencies between
HTML Form Elements.
Can JSP help me with a spec rquirement?
I have a HTML Screen with two pulldowns <select>...</select>
Let's call the first pulldown "country" and fill it with
{ united kindom, france }
Let's call the second one "city" and fill with either
`{ london, manchester, glasgow, cardiff, belfast }
or
`{ paris, nice, lyon, marseille, bordeaux, grenoble, st etienne }
or
whatever the selected item the first pulldown has.
See the problem ? Second pulldown depends on the first.
It is easy to write this as a static HTML web page if the data is static
and bind it with a little JavaScript.
But what if the values for the HTML Option element all come from a database.
I think you write some sort of OptionPulldownBean. But how do get these
beans depended on one another?
How would you write this requirement in JSP ( and the MVC pattern (sic) )?
Any ideas appreciated.
