Actually you might need a name attribute on that hidden field as well ... which could get complicated. It depends on where you form is. Inside or outside the logic:iterate?

Does anyone know of a simple way to send a logic:iterate's indexId back as a

I mean when the page is compiled, the <nested:submit> tag is converted to an
<input> tag before the <%=index%> tag produces Java code.


I think the taglib directive *is* incorrect whenever I get the <%=index%>
tag to produce Java code, that's why it leaves <nested:submit> in the HTML
output. When I remove the <%=index%> tag, or when I include it in such a
way that it doesn't generate Java code, the <nested:submit> tag is
recognized.


What I want to do is write a <nested:submit> tag that passes the value of
Integer "index" to a Javascript function in its "onClick" function.

I think we're having trouble understanding what you're doing. In particular, you say that "the <nested:submit> tag is evaluated before the <%=index%> tag". What do you mean by that? Then, you are now saying that after fixing your scriptlet expression reference, you say that the "<nested:submit> tag isn't replaced with an <input> tag". Do you mean that in the HTML output, you see "<nested:submit ..>" instead of "<input ...>"? If you're really seeing "<nested:submit ...>" in the HTML output, then this would indicate that your taglib directive is incorrect or not present.

Thanks for the suggestion, but that doesn't work either. The
<nested:submit> tag isn't replaced with an <input> tag when I use the syntax
you suggest. I've tried many variations on these syntaxes. If the JSP
expression get's parsed, the struts tags aren't understood. If the struts
tags are understood the JSP expression isn't parsed.


Any other ideas? Surely this is a common usage pattern.

I have a form with a list of elements on it. Each element


has an "Edit"

button associated with it. When the user clicks the Edit


button for a

specific element, I want to send back the value of indexId


in a hidden
field

on the form. I can't figure out a clean way to do this. The


documentation

says "indexId" will create a bean, but it really creates an


Integer (which

isn't a JavaBean). I've tried passing my indexId to a


Javascript function

that sets the form's hidden field sort of like this:

<nested:submit propert="edit" value="Edit"
onclick="setEditIndex(<%=index%>)"/>

but the <nested:submit> tag is evaluated before the <%=index%> tag


The problem is that you have illegal JSP syntax for the 'onclick' attribute.
The attribute value must be a string literal or a scripting expression. You
cannot mix the two. Try this instead:


onclick='<%= "setEditIndex(" + index + ")" %>'

Right now I've got some ugly JSP code that outputs the


submit element that

calls the Javascript function that sets the hidden field.


There must be a

simpler way. Any ideas?
