Yep. Different purpose. The ActionForm exists to capture the text input of a user from the submitted request parameters, and should there be validation errors the form can be presented to users again (with appropriate error messages) and the fields will contain the information that the user had typed in previously. ActionForms are useful for one or two other things as well, but they are distinctly a part of the view and not the model.

I would like to know if I should use Struts as the web framework. My understanding is each page has a Form Bean, but there are MBeans in the JMX application. So are they redundant? will it be unnecessary overhead? Or they are for different purpose? Or should I just use the JMX tag library here: http://www.servletsuite.com/servlets/jmxtag.htm Thanks for any help. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
