When a client machine has a product such as Norton Firewall installed, and it is set to "block referrer", the values in the STRUTS form bean are lost or don't get set. The result is that the user enters a value into a required field, but when the action class runs to validate it, it thinks that the entry was not filled in and sends the user back to the same page. We are not even trying to capture the referrer info, so I have no idea why it being blocked would cause a problem. I apologize if this is a stupid question, as I am new to STRUTS and just inherited this code. Any info at all is greatly appreciated. Jim McGinnis CSA Travel Protection San Diego, CA [EMAIL PROTECTED]
