Hi,
I am trying to generate a form allowing attributes in a catalog to be set on
or off for particular products.
So depending on the state of the Database there will be N Attributes each
with M slectable values (as attributes are added and new styles become
available N and M will vary:
E.g.
Color (red,blue.. N .., green)
Size (s,m,l,xl)
.
.
N
.
.
Weight (1,2,3)
I want a jsp form to display all options for all defined attributes. I
currently have a form:
<form-bean
name="modifyAttributesForm"
type="myproj.product.AttributeForm">
<form-property name="attributeNames" type="java.lang.String[]"/>
<form-property name="attributeValues"
type="java.lang.Object[]"/>
</form-bean>
Where each attributeValues object array entry has in it a LabelValueBean[]
array storing the values for each attribute.
At present ive got the form of checkboxes rendering using standard html
<input type=checkbox... Tags.
<c:forEach items="${modifyAttributesForm.attributeNames}" var="heading"
varStatus="i">
<c:forEach items="${modifyAttributesForm.attributeValues[i.index]}"
var="valuePairs" varStatus="j">
<INPUT name="${heading}" type="checkbox"
value="${valuePairs.value}">${valuePairs.label}<br>
</c:forEach>
</c:forEach>
I of course now want to use the struts multibox tag to handle all the
repopulation for me. However, it seems to me the multibox control is only
going to work for a single String[] array of populated values, I need a 2
dimensional structure.
I cant see how I can do this - perhaps I have hit a common pattern here - ?
Any Ideas?
Lawrence
