Interesting question! The struts-faces library's integration point with Struts itself is that it replaces the default ActionListener defined by JSF. This specialized listener is called on any ActionEvent that is broadcast by a UICommand component (of the standard ones, that means <h:commandButton> and <h:commandLink>). If *all* of the following conditions are met: * The source component is nested inside an <s:form> component instead of an <h:form>. * The source component has its "immediate" property set to false. then, the Struts request processor will be invoked. In all other cases, the standard JSF processing is performed. What that means, in English, is that submit buttons inside a Struts form will cause the usual Struts behavior (form bean, validation, action call, forwarding) to happen. For everything else, Struts is not involved at all. That's usually what you want for components that are simply displaying things, or that are input fields bound to a form bean property. If you have any specific scenarios to ask about, I'd be happy to discuss them further (on the list, of course, so everyone can see the answers). > I would be very grateful for some advice, best regards, > Chris > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
