Barry,

Thanks for that write up.  Looking at that war, I set my app up
similarly, but I am having a very frustrating problem.

When my form tag in the validation.xml file points to (name=) my
DynaValidatorForm in my struts-config.xml, submitting that form yields
an error 404 - not available.  Changing the form method to GET, the
url is ...<formname>.do... after the submit.  Turning off the
validation (by changing the name in the validation.xml to something
else) and submitting the form yields a url that came from the action's
forward tag.

I just don't have enough experience with struts to be able to
understand what is happening (read: HELP!).  I suspect that the
validation is returning something that I am not handling, but I can't
figure out what it is so that I can handle it.  Below are the code
snippets.

Thanks...
