Here the action class, slightly abbreviated. package com.popware.rd.viPro.action;
public class viInvoiceSummaryAction extends Action { private static final Category cat=Category.getInstance(viInvoiceSummaryAction.class.getName()); private HttpSession session; private ActionErrors errors=new ActionErrors(); private ActionMessages messages=new ActionMessages(); public ActionForward perform( ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws java.io.IOException, javax.servlet.ServletException { errors.clear(); messages.clear(); session=request.getSession(); if(session == null || session.isNew()) return (mapping.findForward("logon")); Vector v=new Vector(); v=getInvoiceSummary(); if(messages.empty()) { if((v.size()>0) && (v!=null)) { request.setAttribute("invoiceSummary",v); } } if(!errors.empty()) { this.saveErrors(request,errors); return (new ActionForward(mapping.getInput())); } if(mapping.getAttribute()!=null) if("request".equals(mapping.getScope())) { request.removeAttribute(mapping.getAttribute()); } return (mapping.findForward("success")); } } I can see the logon page loading and then the rest of this classes code gets executed. Thanks for any help.

Are you absolutely sure about this? No other people on your server who could generate the same debug code as you? Because I don't expect the code to continue: the return ...; statement jumps out of the method. hth, tomK -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
