I am just trying to understand an aspect of a

you have to provide an immediate location for the file to be serialized to, or
can you store it in a java object (in a bean's field) as a binary object until
the ActionForm

Hello all.
I wanted to know where you are doing type
conversion. The reason I ask is because to some extent one may choose to
do slightly deeper validations in the ActionForm for reasons of
expectation. The question remains as to the exact level of "light"
validation we should do in the
mappings.
The requests are all still handled by the ActionServlet. The server-side
validation happens within a subclass of ActionForm. The client-side
validation is generated by a custom tag. It snaps into the existing
flow, and nothing bounces around.
