Hi Arnaud, I guess that you're searching a way to initialise the form with the informations of the existing user. I've been faced with something similar. Here is what I did : The thing is that I haven't found a built-in way to pass the session (containing the user id) to the form implementation, and the ActionForm.reset() method that could have been used to populate the form with user data is not called (If somedy knows why...). So I created a specific Action in that goal. In the doPerfom method I create a new instance of the form bean and populate it with the user informations (that is in your session I guess). The key is that this new form instance should be set in your session with the same attibute name defined in struts-config <form-bean> This Action is called by an 'edit user' link or button and forwards to the user form page.
