Hubert, i had previously read the indexprops article in the faq. i think i have that part working. the second article was helpful, but i'm still a bit confused. when submitting my form. does my actionform need to have an array of beans in it for the textfields? or can i just use an array of strings? if it needs an array of beans it seems silly to create a bean that has a getter and setter for one string... although, i haven't been able to get it to work either way. i guess the question i have is how do i create an actionform that contains lists of data? i'd prefer not to use DynaActionForms as the article suggests because they got me into trouble once before. :)
i'd look through the mailing list archives if they were searchable. but as i noted in my previous post i keep getting the message 'Text search not available for this list'. andy On Fri, 30 Jul 2004 11:32:25 -0700 (PDT), Hubert Rabago <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The problem is that Struts tries to populate your form, it starts with an > empty collection.
