http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16074 html:form uses 'action' not 'input' to select mapping, etc. Summary: html:form uses 'action' not 'input' to select mapping, etc. Product: Struts Version: Nightly Build Platform: All URL: http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/api/org/apache/struts/t aglib/html/package-frame.html OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Documentation AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Package org.apache.struts.taglib.html, subsection "About the form tag". Hope I'm getting this right, not too experienced with Struts, reading the doco with microscope to get my app working. (1) Paragraph "The name of the bean and its class can be specified as a property to the form tag..." This (i.e. the 'name' and 'type' attributes) is deprecated as of 1.1b3 according to the taglib reference. (2) Same paragraph. "If the current page is specified as the input property for an action, the name of the action is used." Inspecting org.apache.struts.taglib.html.FormTag.java I get the impression that the 'action' attribute is used to find a mapping. The 'input' attribute is not used at all for this purpose, as far as I can see. Test runs confirm that the mapping with a path that agrees with the 'action' attribute is selected. 'Agrees' means that the extension may be chopped off. (3) Same paragraph: "the name of the action is used." Extend the sentence to include "as the name attribute of the generated HTML <FORM> tag". Vital information. (4) The example after 'Here's a clip from the Struts Example configuration:'. The struts-config DTD requires that 'form-beans' precedes 'action-mappings'. The two should be swapped (as they indeed are in the real example configuration). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
