I do this all the time without using the ActionForm at all,
unfortunately. I don't know if the solutions I use would be helpful,
but here is one: I call an action setting up a page for uploads. Then
I upload, setting up a listener/monitor in the the Upload object which
is buried in the commons multipart handling. Then, on the page where
I did the uploads and to which I return, I provide an automatic popup
that accesses the monitor with a call back via a regular refresh with
a no-cache, etc. and with JavaScript closing the monitor page when
done. I also have a button on the same page that will provide a
report after the fact of whatever happened and keeps whatever
histories are desired, short and long term.
Everything would be easier if I just overrided the RequestUtils, which
is the only place where the excitement happens in Struts upload. I
have with limited success tried to discuss making these sorts of
options available without having to work around the Struts framework
without a lot of success, but lately seemingly some success with Niall
and Martin.
There really is nothing to modifying the upload application to allow
other optiosn besides the default upload application. I have just
wanted to stay with the regular Struts framework so far as is
possible. No real luck so far. Lots of grief! LOL ///;-)
Here is the JavaScript function:
<script Language="JavaScript">
<!--
function popup(url, name, width, height)
{
settings=
"toolbar=no," +
"location=yes," +
"directories=no," +
"status=no," +
"menubar=no," +
"scrollbars=yes,"+
"resizable=yes," +
"width="+ width + "," +
"height=" + height;
Information=window.open(url,name,settings);
}
//-->
</script>
If this interests you, I would be happy to show you more code. Heck,
here is some more if you are somewhat interested.
