Submit form with many inputs

[nt2005]

Hello Community,

How can I submit a form like:

<h:form>

    <rich:comboBox defaultLabel="Enter some value">

        <f:selectItem itemValue="suggestion 1"/>

        ...

    </rich:comboBox>

    <h:inputText id="name" value="" />

    <h:inputText id="attribute1" value="" />

    <h:inputText id="attribute2" value="" />

    <h:inputText id="attributeN" value="" />

    <rich:pickList>

        <f:selectItem itemLabel="Option 1" itemValue="1"/>

        ...

    </rich:pickList>

</h:form>

The problem is: the number of inputs is not known so I cannot use a bean like: #{myBean.input1} #{myBean.input2}....

The best would be to get a string of this submit like a get-submit:

?id=1391&name=notyou&pw=452

Is there an upper limit to the number of inputs on your form?  If so, you could create them without rendering them and then make them visible when the previous is filled in?

Alternatively, you could use the JSF api to dynamically create inputs within your bean class.

Thank you for your advice.

I now use jQuery to serialize the form and submit it to my bean and then analyse the string. Works good!
