;:''Just above, we added "personForm.*" keys to this file, so why do I use personForm ''and'' personDetail? The best reason is because it gives a nice separation between form labels and text on the page. Another reason is because all the *Form.* give you a nice representation of all the fields in your database. I recently had a client who wanted all fields in the database searchable. This was fairly easy to do. I just looked up all the keys in ApplicationResources.properties which contained "Form." and then put them into a drop-down. On the UI, the user was able to enter a search term and select the column they wanted to search. I was glad I followed this Form vs. Detail distinction on that project!''

If you do copy UserActionTest, make sure and change {{UserFormEx}} to {{PersonForm}}. The reason for {{UserFormEx}} is to support a String[[] setter for Roles. Since the UserForm is generated, it's not very feasible to do it in the User.java object.''%%
