So I have a generic form bean I am using that has a few values such as action, offer, code.
I am developing a new form that uses this generic form (required) but I want to use the value of a bean that has a name different from the bean I get values from to populate the form page.
On the first load of the page it displays some basic data:
Action: (hidden input, name the same as the bean)
<html:hidden property="action"/>
Offer: (user input, name the same as the bean)
<html:text property="offer"/>
Code: (hidden input, name not the same as the bean)
<html:hidden property="code"/>
The bean I was to use is something like:
<bean:write name="data" property="data.code.description"/>
How do I get that value (data.code.desription) into the "hidden" code area so that when the form is submitted the generic form bean picks up the value?
You could try like this:
<input type="hidden" name="code" value="<bean:write name="data" property="data.code.description"/>" />
