Hi
I have a registration form (register.jsp) when submitted goes to
RegisterPersonController(extends SimpleFormController) --> RegisterPersonService --> RegisterPersonDAO
and saves the details to DB.
The successView is defined as register
ed.jsp
In registered.jsp I am displaying the congratulations message plus two links
1) View details in PDF
2) View details in Excel
I am capturing the form details from register.jsp into RegisterPersonController in the command object (person) and passing it to registered.jsp through modelAndView object, where i am able to display the details directly on the page .
But how do I pass this model or (command object) from registered.jsp to AbstractPdfView
For your ready reference I am pasting my code here and not attaching ( sorry for long post)
