RE: [Webwork-user] Form - appending formnames based on row-number

[Torsten T. <we...@te...>]

I believe something like this was supported in Struts by using the attribute
indexed=true for the data being iterated over. That way it was possible to
get the row number...

I dont know if webwork has a feature like this... anybody??
