Don't use the listener= parameter, use action="" . Listeners will always strive to find the most "direct" path to invoking your method, which in the case of forms means as soon as the template parser sees it in the component tree.
Action listeners on the other hand will safely be invoked only after the form values have been bound. I question the usefulness of having the listener parameters on forms or submit buttons at all sometimes. On 5/29/06, Matt Raible <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'm trying to put duplicate "button bars" on a form. The top of my form has: <li class="buttonBar right"> <input type="submit" class="button" jwcid="@Submit" value="message:button.save" id="save" listener="ognl:listeners.save"/> <span jwcid="@If" condition="ognl:user.username != null"> <input type="submit" class="button" jwcid="@Submit" value="message:button.delete" id="delete" listener="ognl:listeners.delete" onclick="form.onsubmit = null; return confirmDelete('User')"/> </span> <input type="submit" class="button" jwcid="@Submit" value="message:button.cancel" id="cancel" listener="ognl:listeners.cancel" onclick="form.onsubmit = null"/> </li> The bottom of my form has almost exactly the same thing: <li class="buttonBar bottom"> <input type="submit" class="button" jwcid="@Submit" value="message:button.save" id="save" listener="ognl:listeners.save"/> <span jwcid="@If" condition="ognl:user.username != null"> <input type="submit" class="button" jwcid="@Submit" value="message:button.delete" id="delete" listener="ognl:listeners.delete" onclick="form.onsubmit = null; return confirmDelete('User')"/> </span> <input type="submit" class="button" jwcid="@Submit" value="message:button.cancel" id="cancel" listener="ognl:listeners.cancel" onclick="form.onsubmit = null"/> </li> The strange thing is, if I click on any of the top buttons (which occur before any form elements), no form fields are passed in. However, if I click on the bottom set of buttons, everything works. Is there a limitation in Tapestry where you can't have two sets of the same submit buttons? This works in all the other web frameworks I've used. The raw source of my form can be found at: http://rifers.org/paste/show/828 The rendered source of my form can be found at: http://rifers.org/paste/show/827 I've validated the rendered source of my page with validator.w3.org and it validates as XHTML transitional.
