Your FormBean should be stored in same scope as mentioned in struts-config.xml...

OK thanks Brice and Manish,
I was not able to retrieve the values of my form properties in my action and according to your explanations, I can rule out reset() as the source of the problem.
Thanks.

I'm trying to understand ActionForms a bit better and here is my question:
If the servlet controller automatically invokes the reset() method before passing the ActionForm bean to the Action implementation class instance, how can you use the form's properties' values in your action?
After reset() is invoked, struts populate the ActionForm Bean . FYI: Struts populate ActionForm Bean with all request params (post/get/...) using reflection.
Is this why in the action, you need to downcast the form argument passed by the controller servlet to your Actionform as such:
String userName = ((LoginForm) form).getUserName();
We downcast in Action because in Action we receive base class "ActionForm".
Thanks, SB
