Usually, you'd either use a built in authentication system, or store a User object into the session after logging in. Then your bean write would look more like this:
<bean:write name="user" property="name" scope="session"/> If validation failed, you should return to the page specified by the input attribute of your struts forward. Inside your jsp, use the <html:errors/> or to be more current <html:messages/> tags to display the errors. Alternatively, you could specify your form as session scoped in your struts config, and then it will remain even after the request is finished. -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Sent: Friday, April 02, 2004 2:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: using <bean:write> before form validated I have used <bean:write> to print information from a completed form by doing something like.... Hello <bean:write name="myForm" property="name"/>! I also wanted to write this property out if the form validation failed but it never outputs anything as struts doesn't save the form in the request/session. I find this strange since it must somehow access the form to fill in the already known values. Is there any way to change this behaviour? Thanks.
