Brian you can either use 1 action, and parse the submit button values to determine what code to execute, OR you can use 2 seprate forms and actions, OR you can put all related actions into one MappingDispatchAction or LookupDispatchAction.
If you don't want to get into DispatchActions then I'd suggest the 2nd one, its very clean and straight forward. You have 2 execution paths, so you have 2 actions and 2 forms. If you hide 2 actions in 1 action, it might be less clear. The only thing here is that you will likely need to stick the forms in 2 TD's in an embedded table so they appear side by side, instead of ontop fo eachother. -Riyad On Wednesday 05 May 2004 08:39 am, Brian Boyle wrote: > Thanks Reddy that seems like a good idea.
