Re: WO form and multiple submit buttons

Hi Yamuna,

the behaviour you describe is quite simple to explain: you have set a  
directActionName in you WOForm bindings. That means that this is the  
default behaviour of your form. This is ok as long as you want only  
one action to be called when clicking on one submit button  
(regardless of which if there are more than one) inside the WOForm.  
But as in your example you want two different actions to be fired you  
have to move these bindings to your corresponding submit buttons and  
leaving only multipleSubmit = true inside the WOForm.

Your bindings should then be:

Form3 : WOForm {
   multipleSubmit = true;
}

SearchButton : WOSubmitButton {
   directActionName = doMySearch;
   ?additionalBindings = thatNeedToBeAppendedForSearch;
}

ResetButton : WOSubmitButton {
   directActionName = doMyReset;
   ?additionalBindings = thatNeedToBeAppendedForReset;
}

The binding actionClass = "DirectAction" is not really necessary as  
long as your direct actions are all in the default DirectAction class.
