Hi, What we do is put the form beans in the session, but each one has a clear method we call before filling in data on the form. This keeps the data from being lost, and also keeps it from showing up when not wanted. The clear just sets the member variables in the form bean back to nothing.

In my struts-config.xml I have my formBeans set to "request" scope, so I suspect that this causes the information in my form to disappear. I don't want to have the bean persist for the whole session because users will be coming back to this page. Have you solved this problem already?
