Using Multibox in Struts
By: Ivan Lim in Struts Tutorials on 2007-09-22
Multibox is a collection of checkbox. When a single checkbox
exists, it should be mapped to a Boolean. Such condition does not apply to collection
of checkboxes. Here we map it to a String array
checkboxes around the search display list as follows (Simplified
for clarity):
<html:form action="/manageCustomerList">
<c:if test='${not empty
CUSTOMER_SUMMARY_OBJECTS}'>
..
<html-el:multibox property="idSelections">
<c:out value='${customer.id}'/>
</html-el:multibox>
..
</c:if>
</html:form>
as follows.
public class ManageCustomersForm extends
ActionForm {
private String[] idSelections;
//getters and setters
public ManageCustomersForm() {
init();
}
protected void init() {
idSelections = new String[] { ""
};
}
..
}
ManageCustomersAction and ManageCustomersForm Build Deploy and See how the page displays at this point. This
should give you a clear picture of using multibox.
