Hi Patrick
Thanks for all your help Patrick, I really appreciate it.
Seeing your email made me try the code again, I am not sure why but when
I tryed the example lines this morning, I got and error. Maybe I changed
something else somewhere. If I have in my jsp code the following
<logic:equal name="pageBean" property="typeOfProcess" value="new">
<bean:define id="formAction" value="processNewClient" />
<H1>NEW</H1>
</logic:equal>
<logic:equal name="pageBean" property="typeOfProcess" value="edit">
<bean:define id="formAction" value="processExistingClient" />
<H1>EDIT</H1>
</logic:equal>
<bean:define id="formAction" value="processExistingClient" /> -(1)
<html:form action='<%=formAction%>' focus="username">
with the line (1) in then the code works. However, if I do not have the
line (1) in then I get an error which I have put at the bottom of this
email. I can verify that the code goes into the <logic:equals> sections
since when I run the code with line (1) in it then <H1>EDIT</H1> is displayed.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Tony
