Is it ok to mix it like this or do i either have to implement every property in a own DynaActionForm class or do i have to declare everything in struts-config? > >> the problem is that i have 4 dynamic combo boxes and i always need to >> iterate over the request parameters with a Regexp to get and reset all >> the parameters of the combo boxes. the contents of the 4 combo boxes >> depend on the previously made selection. > > I rarely do this, but others have been talking about this lately.
