+ An ActionForm represents an HTML form that the user interacts with over one
+ or more pages. You will provide properties to hold the state of the form with
+ getters and setters to access them. ActionForms can be stored in either the
session (default)
+ or request scopes. If they're in the session it's important to implement the
form's reset
+ method to initialize the form before each use. Struts sets the ActionForm's
properties from
+ the request parameters and sends the validated form to the appropriate
Action's execute method.
