Joe, Nope. I was writing to you about that but you found your solution faster than I could type (my poor aching fingers at 2AM!).
When you said your 'formName="UserLoginForm"', that suggests you're keying off the action's ActionForm name 'name='UserLoginForm' for your validation. That's why you would use DynaValidatorForm. Using DynaValidatorActionForm is just like a DynaValidatorForm with one exception: it validates of the name of the action. So if your action is called /edit.do, it would need a form name of '/edit' such as: <form name="/edit"> <field ...> ... </field> </form> I also got stuck on this when I first started using the Struts Validator. I hope this explanation helps.

Changing the ActionForm from a DynaValidatorActionForm to a DynaValidatorForm gets me backend validation.
