David,
Yes it is. I think that userForm exists after the validation
process (otherwise I would have gotten an error earlier), but something is
wrong
with countriesList. The form is quite big so I'll post part of it.
<html:html>
...
<html:form action="/saveUser">
<html:hidden property="action"/>
<html:hidden property="id"/>
...
<html:text property="lastName" size="20"/>
...
<bean:define id="cl" name="userForm" property="countriesList"/>
<html:select property="country">
<html:options collection="cl" property="code"
labelProperty="description"/>
</html:select>
...
</html:form>
...
</html:html>
Thank you for your time.
Best of luck,
Yuriy Zubarev
