Hi All,

I am having a jsp page which displays values in the database table using <s:iterator> tag as follows:

<s:iterator value="myList" var="bill">
<tr>
<td><s: property value="#bill.billId" /></td>
<td><s: property value="#bill.customerName" /></td>
<td><s: property value="#bill.amount" /></td>
<td><s: property value="#bill.paymentDate" /></td>
</tr>
</s:iterator>

I want to add a checkbox to each row. In the action class i want to get the id of the row whose checkbox has been clicked.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Raneesh

Hi raneesh,

Of course you can do it by using struts checkbox tag.
you can render the id through Value Parameter in Tag.

Thank you for your reply.

i added the following code inside <tr></tr> tag

<td><s:checkbox name="selectedId" value="#bill.billId"/></td>

In the action class, i created a string array with the name selectedId with its getter and setter methods.
i tried to iterate through that array. but i am getting NullPointerException

Thanks for your reply.

This is my Action class

import com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport;

public class ViewBill extends ActionSupport{
private String[] selectedId;

public void setSelectedId(String[] selectedId) {
this.selectedId = selectedId;
}

public String[] getSelectedId() {
return selectedId;
}
public String execute(){
for(String s: selectedId){//getting NullPointerException here
System.out.println(s);
}
return SUCCESS;
}
}

I suspect that you are not having interceptors stack in your struts.xml

One things you need to confirm .

Whether your form is actually submitted or not?
might be you are navigating a URL

Interceptors by default works whether you explicitly override or not . So interceptor is not a matter to panic.

ok if you are navigating a URL ..so do you think you are posting a Form .

the answer is No , so how can you be able to get the form parameters on action .

try using Submit.

Best regards

Thanks for the reply.

I tried submitting the form. In the action class i'm getting #bill.billId as such.I want to get the value from the database in the action class.

Without using 'var',how can we get values in the list of iterator.
I tried using fieldValue also but not getting.
