Struts app on bar code scanner

[marcus biel \(innoWake gmbh\)]

Hi,

I got a little struts app that works fine on my or any other pc -
But it's supposed to be running on a little bar code scanner similar to
a palm or so.
As you might have guessed, I am using the application to enter bar
codes.
The scanner is running on Windows CE and there is a little application
running
that submits the scanned bar codes to any application currently running.
In the case my struts application, it's running on a special Windows CE
Version
of Internet Explorer, supporting Javascript.  When I am on the first
page
of my struts app, consisting of a little text input form field,
When I scan a bar code, the scanner automatically sends a submit, 
and I guess it does so using Javascript?
Anyway - the problem is when doing so, the
"setMyValue()" methode is called correctly, 
however, for some weird reason when calling the getter method 
in my servlet, it returns NULL!

Sample code:

My JSP:

<html:form action="/myAction" focus="myValue">
<html:text property="myValue" size="14" maxlength="13" />
<html:submit property="action" value="Submit" />
<html:submit property="action" value="Abort" />
</html:form>

My Bean:

    public String getMyValue() { 
        System.out.println("Get MyValue: "+ myValue); // returns NULL
        return this.barcode; 
    }
    public void setMyValue ( String myValue) {  
        System.out.println("My MyValue: "+ myValue); // Returns myValue
        this.myValue = myValue; 
        this.myValue = this.myValue.trim();
    }

My Action:

  public ActionForward execute( ActionMapping       mapping,
                                ActionForm          form,
                                HttpServletRequest  request,
                                HttpServletResponse response ){

MyBean myBean = (MyBean)form;
String myValue = myBean.getMyValue();
System.out.println("MyValue: "+ myValue); // Returns NULL


Any idea, whats wrong?

Thanks,

Marcus
