looks like your action is invoked by editDocType.do so has been started by struts. You
should use
the form parameter passed in the perform method. Struts has created it for you to fill
in then
will store it in the scope specified your action definition in struts-config.xml,
where your jsp
can access it.
Don't add your own version of it to the request.
Hope I've understood your problem correctly - Keith.
