Here's what you are trying to do
index.jsp
-> redirects to
index.do
-> needs to build a bunch'o forms
-> forwards to
home.jsp
Am I understanding you correctly?
The action corresponding to the path "index" can create any number of form-beans and
persist them in any scope before forwarding to home.jsp. Now home.jsp, has several
<html:form>s; which implicitly means that it expects several form-beans. These are
available courtesy the aforementioned action.
Where are you running into a problem?

Subject: one more prepopulate question
I know that the prepopulate question has been beaten into the ground around here and
the answer on the FAQ page is complete in answering most questions I have about the
concept. But I just want to run something by this list, see if I am going about it in
the right way.
When you are designing an application, and the index page has several mini-forms (such
as a limited search, a login and maybe a site index) the first page has to be a *.do
page. So I figured, make an index.jsp page with
<logic:redirect page="/index.do"/>
Then my /index action would prepare the forms and display /home.jsp. The FAQ talks
about putting the form population in the Action class for the /index action, which
works great...
...except, how would you populate more than one form? Seems like in the cast you
limit yourself to the form defined in the action mapping. Would it be necessary to
just set up an action chain?
