I am validating fields in my ActionForm using the validate() method. Upon finding errors, I return a populated ActionErrors object. When the thread of control is passed back to the input JSP, a List of users used to populate an html:select is no longer in the request object (since this is a new request at this point). Since I never get to my Action class, I don't get the List populated.
I really don't want to put the List of users on the session if I can avoid it, since the List really should be re-built with each request. Is there a "best-practices" way to deal with this problem? Thanks
