Freek,
Thanks for responding. The problem is that I am trying to use the NAME
attribute in my Javascript code and if I put the NAME attribute in the
html:text tag, it means something special to Struts. I want Struts to
ignore the NAME attribute.
Example:
<html:text property="myProperty" name="myTextField"/>
I want Struts to ignore the name so that I can refer to the text field by
name in Javascript.
Example.
<javascript>
validate(myTextField.value);
</javascript>
Thanks,
Dennis

Hi,
If you want Struts to handle the field and populate and store its value in
some Form bean, you can use the property attribute:
<html:form action="myAction">
<html:text property="myProperty"/>
</html:form>
This tells Struts that it should store and retrieve the value of the text
field using the property 'myProperty' in the Form bean. Because you leave
out the name attribute, Struts will use the Form bean that you specified in
struts-config.xml with the Action 'myAction'. The name of the generated
input tag will be 'myProperty'. So you can use this name to do Javascript
things.
Hope this helps.
