I tried this out weeks ago so I've forgotten some of the details, but I think the way it works is, if you decide to wrap your pojo with WrapDynaBean, your form's fields are limited to what your pojo has.
<form-bean name="updateProfileForm" type="ie.jestate.input.ProfileDTO"/> If you want to define forms based on your pojo, and still add form-specific fields, check out formdef: https://formdef.dev.java.net. Btw: (1) the "https://www.jestate.dev.java.net"; in your sig doesn't work -- take out the "www." (2) you can find mail archives at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=struts-user&r=1&w=2 (3) a user has already reported that FormDef is compatible with StrutsTestCase, though I haven't personally tried it yet Hubert On Tue, 9 Nov 2004 19:36:48 +0100, bryan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Ok , I admit I may have lost the plot somewhat/somewhere ... but am I > on the right track at all here ?
