you still get error messages even without the <html:errors/> tag? Sounds like a restart web app required?
in the ActionForm validation() method, how do you populate Errors?

I have two text boxes, firstName and lastName I triple checked the property names and capitalisation, and I still get all the errors. Also, I would have thought that not including any error tag would mean no errors would be displayed.
