Okay, I guess that s:checkbox can do what I want but I am having trouble getting the multiple values from the results of my checkboxes. So if I have this ...

<s:iterator id="entry" value="myCollection">
  <s:checkbox name="deleteIds" fieldValue="%{entry.id}" />
  <s:checkbox name="disableIds" fieldValue="%{entry.id}" />
</s:iterator>

and in my action ...

private String[] deleteIds = new String[0];
public String[] getDeleteIds();
public void setDeleteIds(String[] deleteIds);
// same thing for disableIds

I think that should work but I'm not getting the values that I expect. When I check only a single box it seems to submit values for both the delete and disabled boxes, and if I check multiple boxes I only get a single value.

I am also curious why there are 2 inputs for my checkboxes ...

<input type="checkbox" name="deleteIds" value="0112f2dd1248f33f011248f6bcb40004" id="globalCommentManagement_deleteIs"/> <input type="hidden" name="__checkbox_deleteIds" value="0112f2dd1248f33f011248f6bcb40004"/>

is String[] the right type to use for collecting the values of the checkboxes? why am i not getting the multiple values and why are the 2 checkboxes affecting each other?

actually, I did have trouble getting it to work but it doesn't really matter because that's not really what I am looking for. That tag will create a whole list of checkboxes, but what I really need is to create a single checkbox which is part of a list. It's a weird situation so it wouldn't really surprise me if s2 didn't have support for it, but I wanted to ask.

in any case, the situation is that i am iterating over a collection and displaying each entry in a list on the page. in that list i am providing a couple of checkboxes which affect the status of that entry, 1 which would delete the entry, the other which would set a different status. so my basic code is ...

<s:iterator list="myCollection">
  <tr class="entry">
    <td> // delete checkbox </td>
    <td> // status checkbox </td>
    <td> // print entry details </td>
  </tr>
</s:iterator>

so i'm not really trying to print a whole list of checkboxes, i'm trying to print a single checkbox which is based on a list. it looks like that's what the old html:multibox tag was for, but i dunno, i didn't write the original code that i am updating :/

Is there a direct equivalent struts2 tag to the

code being migrated and i'm not sure how best to accomplish the same thing in struts2 ...

Does <s:checkboxlist.../> not work for you?
