I've found some issues. Writing about this will solve the whole thing :-)
1)
the argument sent to the action is named 'query' (hard coded) while I
assumed it would be taken from the 'name'
( -> product in my case. (<yui:autocompleter ..name="product"..) )
That would be nice to be mentioned in the documentation
( at http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/S2PLUGINS/YUI+Plugin )
So now I added set/getQuery to my action which took
me one step further.
But still the parameters are not set automatically. so I
2)
put the params into the autocompleter's href
But here is one problem : the URL is not built correctly
<s:url id="productListUrl"
namespace="/ajax"
action="ProductList"
includeParams='none'>
<s:param name="categoryNo" value="%{categoryNo}" />
<%--ProductList?category=9?query=1 (? instead of : between
category and query) --%>
</s:url>
Category is e.g. '9' and I get the URL:
'.../ProductList?category=9?query=1'
So I get 'category== '9?query=1' and query is not set anymore. So when the
URL is built it's assumed that there are no other parameters.
As for now in the getter for my category I will parse and split it myself
because I have to go on with my project - and wait for this to be fixed
or for someone who explains what's wrong here ..
comments are still welcome...

<%@ taglib prefix="yui" uri="/struts-yui-tags" %>
<yui:head autocompleter="true" />
..
<s:form
id="productChoiceForm"
action="ProductList" > <div
class="yui-skin-sam" > <s:hidden
id="categoryNo" name="categoryNo" />
<s:url id="productListUrl" namespace="/ajax"
action="ProductList" includeParams='none'
/> <yui:autocompleter
id="product" name="product" href="%{#productListUrl}"
containerCssStyle="width:100px" /> </div>
<s:submit type="input" cssClass="mySubmitButton"/>
</s:form> ...
( I changed the 'includeParams' parameter without any effect )
struts.xml has this action:
<package name="ajax" namespace="/ajax" extends="json-default">
<action name="ProductList" class="my.classpath.ajax.ProductList">
<result type="json">
<param name="root">options</param>
</result>
</action> </package>
and the action has parameters+getter/setter for
product,productKey,categoryNo
but none of these parameters is initialized before the 'execute'
method is called (
with the 'getOptions' method it's the same thing ).
Any suggestion ( or may be a working example ) is appreciated ...
