Hello Excuse my niavete, but I have never used a formbean for other than retrieving string data from a form. For output I have just used simple struts and jstl for output. Now I want to reverse it and would like to use more sophisticated struts tags with collections in the form bean. Simple (stupid,grin?) question.
Can I from an Action populate a formbean, from a database, set it in the session and forward to a jsp that is configured to use that formbean as the encompassing formbean for the form? What is the syntax, where do I put the name of the formbean in the struts form tag to match the name of the formbean I populated from the action? Yes, I know I should try it and answer it myself, I was just hoping for a headsup and general direction. tia.
