I use a form derived from ValidatorActionForm.
If the validator fires a message and redisplays the form, I loose my
request params!
I do:
<html:link action="/insertExpense.do?op=new" styleClass="button">
this actions opens a form with a request parameter op set to new.
inside this form I do something like:
<html:form action="/editExpense" method="post" focus="expenseType">
<c:if test="${requestScope.op == 'new'}">
<html:hidden name="op" property="op" value="insert"/>
</c:if>
<c:if test="${requestScope.op == 'insert'}">
<html:hidden name="op" property="op" value="insert"/>
</c:if>
<c:if test="${requestScope.op == 'update'}">
<html:hidden name="op" property="op" value="update"/>
</c:if>
.....
If the user enters garbage in any field that is validated the form is
redisplayed with an error message on the right side of the field.
BUT THE ${requestScope.op} is empty and therefore this information is
LOST!! Any idea what I am doing wrong???
I would guess it has to do with how you're setting up the 'op' hidden
input. you have name="op" property="op" value="..." which is telling
Struts to use the 'op' property of a bean named 'op' in some scope. What
does the generated HTML look like?
I would suggest:
a) move the hidden input outside the c:if tests, and just set it
unconditionally;
b) simplify the html:hidden, or maybe use vanilla HTML instead of the
custom action, since you don't need the extra functionality provided by
html:hidden in this case.
The result would look like one of:
<html:hidden name="op" value="${requestScope.op}"/>
<input type="hidden" name="op" value="${requestScope.op}" />
