hi, I have changed a DynaActionForm to a DynaValidatorForm. The DynaActionForm email property (the only property on the form) was being displayed in a new popup window. Since I changed to a DynaValidator form it shows the value as blank. I have the Javascript validation working OK.
The flow of events is as follows 1. User clicks on Request Email button on main window 2. ShowEmailAction is called that populates emailAddress property. (I have confirmed value is put into form). 3. Pops up new window and shows show_email.jsp. The emailAddress property is blank. struts-config.xml <form-bean name="EmailForm" type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm"> <form-property name="emailAddress" type="java.lang.String" /> </form-bean> <action path="/enquiry/showEmail" type="com.cuscal.mmdd.action.cuenquiry.ShowEmailAction" name="EmailForm" scope="session" input="/enquiry/showEmail.do" validate="false"> <forward name="success" path="com/cuscal/mmdd/jsp/cu_enquiry/show_email.jsp"/> </action> ShowEmailAction public class ShowEmailAction extends MMDDirectBaseAction { public ActionForward execute( ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception { // logger.debug("Entered ShowEmailAction method"); System.out.println("Entered ShowEmailAction method"); UserView user = getUserContainer(request).getUserView(); String email = user.getEmail(); DynaValidatorForm emailForm = (DynaValidatorForm) form; // DynaActionForm emailForm = (DynaActionForm) form; emailForm.set("emailAddress", email); System.out.println("@@@email=" + emailForm.get("emailAddress")); // This bit works return mapping.findForward("success"); } } show_email.jsp < ...... tags, validator javascript, etc ....... > <html:html> <HEAD> <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <META name="GENERATOR" content="IBM WebSphere Studio"> <META http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css"> <link href=<html:rewrite href='/MMDDirectWeb/com/cuscal/mmdd/jsp/cu_enquiry/styles/styles00.css' /> rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <TITLE>email.jsp</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <P><strong>Verify Email Address</strong></P> <html:javascript formName="EmailForm" /> <p>Please check/correct/add the email address below where the member's list will be sent</p> <html:form action="/enquiry/email.do" onsubmit="return validateEmailForm(this);"> <!-- <bean:define name="EmailForm" property="emailAddress" id="ea" type="java.lang.String" /> --> <html:text property="emailAddress" size="35"/><br/> <div align="right"><p></p> <a href="#" class="button1" onClick="window.close();">Cancel</a> <!-- <html:link href="../enquiry/email.do" styleClass="button1">Submit link</html:link> --> <!-- <html:link action="/enquiry/email.do" styleClass="button1">Submit</html:link> --> <html:submit styleClass="button">Submit</html:submit> </div> </html:form> </BODY> </html:html> So close yet so far.
