Struts and dynamic controls/control array
I am new to struts framework.
the working environment is windows + IIS + Tomcat 5 + Struts 1.1
the problem is i need to develop a jsp page using struts framework and the view is something like this
|-------------------------
| ID | | Name | Qty | Stock |
|-------------------------
| TextBox | Button | TextBox | TextBox | TextBox |
|-------------------------
|TextBox | Button | TextBox | TextBox | TextBox |
|-------------------------
|TextBox | Button | TextBox | TextBox | TextBox |
|-------------------------
|TextBox | Button | TextBox | TextBox | TextBox |
|-------------------------
|TextBox | Button | TextBox | TextBox | TextBox |
|-------------------------
"TextBox" means HTML Text box is displayed same with button.
in asp/jsp i can name the controls dynamically and use request.getparameter("cont
but how do i do the same thing using struts frame work? here in the above sample i displayed only 4 rows but in actual case it can be 10/20. is there any way achieving this? i am a newbie to using Struts, please give me step by step example on creating actionform and actionclass.

> can you please explain how do i control how many rows i want to display using the method you posted?
When you create the array of Row objects, only add the number you want to display...
> and what are the entries in struts-config.xml?
You will need a start action that fills in the array of Rows, and an Action as usual to catch the values when the form is posted...
> and can you post a sample for actionclass.
It's the same as any normal action...
