Thank you John!
Funny thing is, I had changed that in previous attempts. When that didn't
work, I must have forgot to put it back.
Speaking of request scope, Is there a way to do this (wizard steps) using
the request scope, or do I just have to make the action classes responsible
for reseting the form to start from scratch?
Thanks again
David

Try removing the scope="request" line below. The formbean will default to
session scope (I believe). If you specify request scope, then the formbean
will be accessible on the second page, but not the third...
This worked for me after I banged my head against it as well!!
<!-- Create Project-->
<action path="/projectcreate"
type="edu.erau.dcm.teammate.action.ProjectCreateAction"
name="ProjectForm"
scope="request" <-- remove this.
validate="false"
input="/admin/project/project_create.jsp">
<forward name="next" path="/admin/project/project_add_leader.jsp"/>
<forward name="cancel" path="/admin/project/project_admin.jsp"/>
</action>
Hope this helps...

Subject: beans and scope
I'm trying to get a series of pages to populate a form ala a "wizard"
interface.
Each page enters a chunck of information which is then forwarded to the next
page in the sequence. The previous information is dispalyed along with an
area to enter the next bit of info.
The Problem is that after the information on the second page is entered, the
third page doesn't receive the information from the fist page, only the
second. The informatoin never makes it into the second pages action class.
I made the scope="session", but this still doesn't work.
Please help, I've been banging my head against this for days.
------first page-------------------------------
<html:form action="/projectcreate" scope="session">
<p>Enter Project Name: </b> <html:text name="ProjectForm"
property="name" tabindex="1" /> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><b>Project Description:</b></p>
<blockquote> <html:textarea cols="50" name="ProjectForm"
property="description" rows="5" tabindex="2" />
</blockquote>
<p align="right">
<html:cancel tabindex="4"/>
<html:submit tabindex="3">Next</html:submit>
</p>
</html:form>
----------------------------------------------
-----second page---------------------------------------
<html:form action="/projectaddleader" scope="session">
<b>Add Project Leader:</b>
<html:text name="ProjectForm" property="newLeader" />
<html:submit />
Project Name:
<bean:write name="ProjectForm" property = "name" />
Project Description:
<bean:write name="ProjectForm" property = "description"/>
</html:form>

--------from stuts-config.xml-------------------------------
<form-bean name="ProjectForm"
type="edu.erau.dcm.teammate.form.ProjectForm"/>
