Hi, do you have a "entrypoint" into this multipage-form? If yes, put it behind an action and reset old leftover stuff in that action...
hope this helps Alexander -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2001 12:13 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Removing session scope form bean on short-circuit Hi, I have a multi-page transaction that uses a session-scoped form bean. The action class that carries out the final transaction cleans up the form bean from the session. The catch is that on earlier pages there are links that allow the user to short-circuit the business transaction (cancelling it effectively) and take them to some other destination. Those links either have actions that are unrelated or are simple global forwardings with no associated action. What happens is that when they short-circuit like this, the form bean is never cleaned up, and if they start a new one of these multi-page transactions subsequently within the same session it begins with state from the previously short-circuited operation. I could claim that this is a feature. ;-) I could create a "cancel" action that cleans up the form bean and always returns a "success" logical forwarding, and use that as the action for the short-circuit links. These is the easiest solution I have come up with, but I thought I would see what you folks have to say.
