I don't think there is best-practices specific to master/detail processing per se.
There are a lot of different ways to do this. So many that I don't know where to start actually. I would look at scaffolding as a best-practices and I would buy Struts in Action by Ted Husted & gang. Not a plug, but if I was just starting, this is the advice I would want. <assumption that you are just starting> One way to do this is to have multiple forms on the master page. Each "action" posts to a different form and the update/read links just point directly to an action. An example of an action is "Add" or "Delete". sandeep --- Jing Zhou <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Shane Mingins" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 4:58 PM > Subject: How do I implement a Master/Detail > maintenance form? > > > > Hi > > > > Are there any *best practices* or examples around > showing the best way of > > implementing the maintenance of a master/detail > relationship using the > > Struts framework? > > > > For example if I provide a form with a supplier > and list of products where > > you can edit the supplier details and/or edit the > product details, to > select > > the product to edit I need to provide a key to > identify that product.
