In my case, I'm retrieving a specific data object from a persistent store and acting on it. However, the only reason I need the list of child nodes is for the <s:tree> menu, not in other places where I'll use that object, so I'm retrieving the children separately.
Then again, even using this technique, I could always set the childList property on my parent data object before exiting the action, so my question is kind of a moot point. Thanks for your insight :) -Brian On 3/20/07, Dave Newton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: <snip> That I also don't know, so I wonder why I'm replying
to this at all! I would have assumed that children needed to belong to the root node, since that's kind of the definition of a tree. d.
