Cameron, are you still experiencing this problem? I just ran into the same
thing and thought I would share how I solved it.
I too was creating a form bean and then adding it to the session. When the
corresponding jsp was loaded, all the values were reset to the default.
Upon examining my struts-config.xml, I noticed the following in my action
mapping for that jsp:
Note: irrelevant attributes have been omitted
<action path="/path"
scope="request"
name="formName"
input="/form.jsp">
</action>
Notice the value of the scope attribute... I decided to add my newly
created form bean as a request attribute instead of to the session, and my
problem was solved. To confirm my suspicions, I changed the value of the
scope attribute to session and then saved my form bean in the session, and
it still worked.
Hope this helps.
-Karen

No... should I be? Ted could you enlighten us a bit on how to do this? :)
Am I missing some thing? My code to do this consists of a few lines to do
this. I figure the problem is probably something pretty small.
Ex.
ActionForm frm = new ActionForm();
frm.setSomething("Something");
session.setAttribute("Form", form);
Thanks !! Cameron Ingram

When you create the ActionForm, are you calling setServlet()?

and it appears that the action servlet is then recreating the form bean and
re-adding it to the session, thus all of the fields I set are set back to
there original values. I overrode the reset method so I know that it's not
calling that to clear the variables. As I understand it the action servlet
should check to see if it's in the session before it recreates it. The name
I am using to define it in the session is the same name that the
struts-config file uses to define the name. Any ideas???
