You are a champion Niall, thanks! I can't believe I overlooked the naming conventions.
Thanks again.

I have a "populator" Action that creates my TestRow[] object and adds it to the form. The dynaaction also has a simple String property which I also populate. I then forward to my HTML form that has the row fields indexed. The form is displayed with all the indexed text boxes and select boxes populated as expected. I edit the values, including the non indexed field and submit the form to the form processor action. The form is retrieved and the non indexed field has the updated value, BUT, the indexed fields still contain the original values! I've triple checked everything, and looked around for answers but I can't work out whats wrong. I've even done indexed forms successfully before on a different project, so its very frustrating. Even downloaded the lastest Struts 1.2.7/JSTL 1.1.2 libs and retried. Any help greatly appreciated....Thanks Mark Here's my code and config segments: DynaActionForm definition from my struts-config.xml: <form-bean name="testForm" type="org.apache.struts.action.DynaActionForm"> <form-property name="simple" type="java.lang.String"/> <form-property name="rows" type="aims.app.support.library.pub.TestRow[]"/> </form-bean> and the action mappings <action path="/do/testInit" type="aims.app.support.library.pub.action.TestInit" input="/do/gotoError.do" name="testForm" scope="session"> <forward name="next" path="/do/gotoTestPage.do"/> </action> <action path="/do/testProcess" type="aims.app.support.library.pub.action.TestProcess" input="/do/gotoError.do" name="testForm" scope="session"> <forward name="next" path="/do/gotoThankyou.do"/> </action> My test page, which is included into my Tiles to form valid HTML and mapped to /do/gotoTestPage.do : <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %> <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-logic.tld" prefix="logic" %> <%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %> <%@ taglib uri="jstl/c" prefix="c" %> <html:form action="/do/testProcess" > <html:text property="simple" /> <c:forEach var="row" items="${testForm.map.rows}"> <!-- was using logic:iterator but tried this too --> Author: <c:out value="${row.field1}"/> <html:text name="row" property="field1" indexed="true" /> <br> Pick from known affiliations <br> <html:select name="row" property="field2" size="4" indexed="true"> <html:option value="1"/> <html:option value="2"/> <html:option value="3"/> <html:option value="4"/> <html:option value="5"/> </html:select> </c:forEach> <p> <html:submit value="Continue" styleClass="addButton"/> </p> </html:form> "Populator" action public class TestInit extends Action { private static final String NEXT="next"; public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception { DynaActionForm testForm = (DynaActionForm) form; TestRow row1=new TestRow(); row1.setField1("Mark"); row1.setField2(2); TestRow row2=new TestRow(); row2.setField1("Fred"); row2.setField2(5); TestRow[] rows=new TestRow[2]; rows[0]=row1; rows[1]=row2; testForm.set("rows", rows); testForm.set("simple", "hello"); return mapping.findForward(NEXT); } } "Form processor" action public class TestProcess extends Action { private static final String NEXT="next"; public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception { DynaActionForm testForm = (DynaActionForm) form; String simple=(String)testForm.get("simple"); System.out.println("Simple: " + simple); TestRow[] rows=(TestRow[])testForm.get("rows"); for (int i=0;i<rows.length;i++) { System.out.println("Name: " + rows[i].getField1()); System.out.println("No: " + rows[i].getField2()); } return mapping.findForward(NEXT); } } TestRow bean public class TestRow { private String field1; private int field2; public String getField1() { return field1; } public void setField1(String field1) { this.field1 = field1; } public int getField2() { return field2; } public void setField2(int field2) { this.field2 = field2; } } --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The information contained in this communication is for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed, and may contain information which is the subject of legal privilege and/or copyright.
