Ok.I got your problem. But as U dont want to put the collection in session , the only way out is to get it back from model and populate it in the form before sending it to jsp. I think in such case if u dont want to keep the list in session but repopulate it on validation error(Like a country list on a user input form..)you can forward to another action in case of error which will repopulate the form with the collection.and then forward it back to the same jsp.
We have pretty much similar functionality.And u can even have a generic action class which will just populate the forms in case of errors and send them back to jsps. regards, Shirish -----Original Message----- From: meissa.Sakho [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 05, 2002 4:56 PM To: struts-user; meissa.Sakho Subject: setting form attributes within jsp Hi all, I would like to set some of my form attributes within the jsp so that to be able to get it back when the form validation fails. the conserned attribute is a collection and I don't want to put in in the session. I've tried the jsp setProperty tag in vain. the attributes have getters and setters method in the ActionForm bean. can someone help me about that Thanks meissa -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
