Hi all,
I've got an action called "edit" that prepares some objects for use in
a form (Lists for select tags, etc), then dispatches to the JSP form.
It's dependent on having a parameter passed to it via a GET url (e.g.
edit.action?id=4) to build these objects.
This form submits to another action, "doedit", and there's some
programmatic validation on this action. If I use the Dispatcher result
type on the input result, Struts dispatches to the JSP form again, but
since it never calls the first "edit" action, the form controls don't
get populated. If I do redirect-action on the input result, I get back
to the form, but Struts seems to have "forgotten" the FieldErrors
object, so I get no validation messages.
How do you deal with validation when you're using actions to prepare
forms like this? Am I approaching the rich forms generation the wrong
way, and there's a better way?
Thanks for any advice, since I'm banging my head against the wall on
this - I must be missing something obvious.
Cheers,
Andy.
