thanks for the advice, yes AccountManagerAction is a subclass of DispatchAction, and has two dispatch methods modify(...) and update(...). I also know that the action is partially setup correctly because if i call account.jsp and submit to manage.do?action=update, update(...) is called in the AccountManagerAction. like i mentioned before it is most likely related to my misunderstanding of validation and input, maybe i need to break this out into two actions. btw, my logic behind this setup is that i can reuse account.jsp to both create and edit accounts. i can submit more of my code if it would help anyone track down this issue. > > > You haven't overriden the execute or the perform method have you?
