Thanks for all the suggestion guys..
Here is some more elaboration of the problem in steps:
1) First user select a file to upload .. I am using FormFile type variable
in my formbean.
<html:file name=*"Form"* tabindex=*"11"* property=*"attachment"* styleId=*
"frmTxtAttachment"* style=*"width:300px"*
value=*"<bean:write name='parecRequestForm' property='attachPath' />"*></
html:file>
here attachPath is FormFile type property in my formbean.
2) On submitting the form I did some check before committing the data into
db.
3) On the basis of the check result of #2 I come back to the same page and
display a popup of OK and CANCEL.
But this time as form has refreshed <html:file>'s value gets empty.
(This is the main problem) whereas values
for rest of the properties remains filled up as struts tags reads that
forms value which is in request.
4) Now on clicking OK from this popup I resubmit the form but this time as
attachment file path is emptied so it
doesn't get saved in the db.
I am looking for the suggestions provided but it doesn't look working in
this scenario. Can you guys please give
a glimpse this problem and suggest something.
Every help is very much appreciated..
Thanks and Regards,
