I have a JSF form, in which we need to select list of products(using checkbox). The products are displayed using the c:forEach iteration. I am storing the detail of each selected product in a spearate bean called BuyProduct.java. I want each of this selected bean/product to be passed to the action attribute of form. Or is there any alternate way to implement this?
