Dave,

Thanks for the suggestion...

Yes, the request will work... Its shorter-lived than the session so I think
that it is a better alternative.

Cheers...

Dave

You could attach the form to the request in Action A and retrieve in in
Action B.

Action A:  request.setAttribute( "ActionAForm", theFormForActionA );

Action B: ActionAForm theForm = (ActionAForm)request.getAttribute(
"ActionAForm" );

Would that work for you?
