Jane,

I've taken a simple route in the past and simply replaced the submit
button with an animated gif file...

Here is one I created (by myself, no copyright) that you can use if you
want -

http://www.doubleatrailer.com/dat_r3/images/AnimStatus.gif

It's purposely a bit big, in production, I usually use img height and
width attributes to make it look right. Since it's familiar to users,
they will think the intarwebs are working on their request, since it is
a status bar ;-D

It's working now. The problem was with the submit button and the javascript.
Usually, all the values in those select boxes should be selected(generated
javascript does that for you) once you click on the submit button; this was
not happening in my case as I had an onclick event for the form submission,
which was causing the generated javascript to not get executed. Submit
button should be simple enough as follows.
<s:submit action="TestingTool_filter" value="Filter Logs"/>

No it isn't. The problem was a usage error, as documented in the link he
posted.

There is no such patch. The 'fix' Musachy was refering to was the broken
link to the documentation Mark cited.

Are you sure the page isn't being cached by your browser? Try hitting
reload (or CTRL + Reload if you're using IE).

Thanks for the support.

I saw the site. Its good.

But I have some questions
1. What we have to do with other file to implement it. Because I use one
but the result was same as before.
2. For multiple parameter which on to use.
3. If I want to display multiple properties in single column how can we
do  it?


I am very thankful we you send me some descriptive example or any
suggestions.

Thank

Varun

you can use a decorator class for this.

Hi,

I have defined two action in my struts.xml:

<action name="showProfile" class="profileAction" method="showProfile">
  <result type="tiles">page.user.profile</result>
</action>

<action name="editProfile" class="profileAction" method="editProfile">
   <result type="tiles">page.user.profile</result>
  <result name="input" type="tiles">page.user.profile</result>
</action>

the showProfile action shows all the user information (user name, nick name, email, ...) in a form on the profile page.
the editProfile action is used to save the changed values of the form and is being validated via xml validation. but as I wrote if the validation returns a field error the error message is shown but all the form contents are gone on the profile page.

what would be the solution to solve this problem?

thanks in advance

Hi,

thanks for looking at the problem. here is the relevant part of my action:

public class ProfileAction extends JombolaAction {

  private static Logger l = Logger.getLogger("UserAction");

  private UserService userService;
  private ScopeUserService scopeUserService;
  private String username;
  private String email;
  private String password;
  private String newPassword;
  private String confirmPassword;
  private String fullname;
  private String scope;
  private Collection<GameScopeValue> scopes;
  private String button;

  private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

  public String showProfile() throws Exception {
    UserContext uCtx;
    String result = ERROR;

    uCtx = getUserContext();

    if (uCtx != null) {
       username = uCtx.getUser().getUsername();
       fullname = uCtx.getUser().getFullname();
       email = uCtx.getUser().getEmail();
       result = SUCCESS;
    }
    return result;
  }

  public String editProfile() throws Exception {
    String result = ERROR;

    UserContext uCtx = getUserContext();
   
    if (uCtx != null) {
       uCtx.getUser().setUsername(username);
       uCtx.getUser().setFullname(fullname);
       uCtx.getUser().setEmail(email);
    }

    try {
       userService.updateUser(uCtx.getUser());
       setUserContext(uCtx);
       addActionMessage(getText("message.profile.updated"));
       result = SUCCESS;
    } catch (UserNotExistsException e) {
       l.debug("Exception while updating profile/password of user: "
            + username + ", user does not exist!");
       addActionError(getText("message.profile.error"));
    }    
    showProfile(); // I tried it with and without this line but if there is a validation error all fields in the jsps are empty
    return result;
  }

is there an error?

Psssst! Schon vom neuen GMX MultiMessenger gehört?
Der kann`s mit allen: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/multimessenger

this is for example an extract of my ProfileAction-editProfile-validation.xml:

<field name="fullname">
 <field-validator type="requiredstring">
   <message>Please insert your first and last name!</message>
 </field-validator>
 <field-validator type="regex">
  <param name="expression">[a-zA-ZäöüÄÖÜ]+ [a-zA-ZäöüÄÖÜ]+</param>
  <message>Please insert both first and last name!</message>
 </field-validator>  
</field>

And this is the relevant part of my jsp:

<s:form method="POST" action="editProfile">    
<table cellpadding="2" class="mainBody">
  <tr>
    <td><s:textfield name="username" cssClass="loginForm" key="form.prompt.username"/></td>              
  </tr>            
  <tr>
    <td><s:textfield name="fullname" cssClass="loginForm" key="form.prompt.fullname"/></td>                          
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><s:textfield name="email" cssClass="loginForm" key="form.prompt.email"/></td>              
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
       <s:submit cssClass="loginForm" key="button.saveChanges"/>
    </td>
  </tr>
</s:form>

the correct validation field error message is shown but the form is empty though the fields were filled before sending the form.

I don't know, I suppose is because struts use a Map and I don't know
how it uses that. The users references change, but no the object.

I suppose that my problem is that somewhere I put a attribute in a
action, then due a action's are implemented as singleton, boila!, the
user reference is keeps in that attribute. I searching that now.

when your data is safely persisted to your DB I would call
session.invalidate() to 'clear' the session
dave has posted the struts code to accomplish this..
// Code fragment from class implementing SessionAware containing the
// session map in a instance variable "session". Attempting to invalidate
// an already-invalid session will result in an IllegalStateException.
if (session instanceof org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.SessionMap) {
  try {
    ((org.apache.struts2.dispatcher.SessionMap) session).invalidate();
  } catch (IllegalStateException e) {
    logger.error(msg, e);
  }
}http://struts.apache.org/2.0.11.1/docs/how-do-we-get-invalidate-the-session.html
