Thanks both for your time. I have a text input followed by a checkbox for indicating that the text input is N/A. When the checkbox is checked I use javascript to disable the text input. The problem is that, if validation fails and the page comes back the checkbox is still checked (the magic of struts :-) but the text field is not still disabled.
So I think the logic tags will do the trick. -Miles > -----Original Message----- > From: McDonnell, Colm (MLIM) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 19 November 2004 16:42 > To: Struts Users Mailing List > Subject: RE: Conditionally disable form input. > > I'm sure Paul is correct here however just in case you are > content to submit the form when the checkbox is checked ..... > you could then conditionalise the text input field by > wrapping it in c:if or logic:equals tags in which you test > the value of some form bean property to determine whether to > enable or disable the control. > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Paul McCulloch [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 19 November 2004 16:34 > To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' > Subject: RE: Conditionally disable form input. > > > What you are suggesting will only work if the form is > submitted after the > checkbox is checked - probably not what you or the user would > expect to > happen. > > I'd try and use JavaScript to achieve the same functionality > on the client - > the relevant event on the checkbox field could modify the > disabled flag of > the text input. > > Paul > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Daffin, Miles (Company IT) > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: 19 November 2004 16:20 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Conditionally disable form input. > > > > > > Hi All, > > > > I want to disable a text input if a certain checkbox input has been > > checked (meaning, in the following example, that the name > > input need not > > be filled in).
