What does <forward name="success"  path="/adduser.cm"/> mean? Shouldn't it be path="/adduser.jsp" ?

hi all,
 
In continuation to my post yesterday,
 
The following is my code. The flow is fine till Forwarding to Success and then instead of displaying, it starts again >from the begining.
 
If i remove the if condition in validate method then it displays the form with errors which is fine.
 
am i doing something wrong????
 
 
thanks,
rama.
 
Mappings:
 
<!-- FIP User Profile Page bean -->
