I am not sure if I understand you correctly, but I will try. What you basically need is to create a form bean without actually invoking the action that claims that it uses it. Did I understand you correctly?
Anway to create your form bean manually you would do something like this: ModuleConfig mc = RequestUtils.getRequestModuleConfig (request); ActionMapping am = (ActionMapping) mc.findActionConfig (actionName); return RequestUtils.createActionForm (request, am, mc, getServlet ()); where action name is the action name that uses the form you create, in your case /planning/circuit/edit HTH, Alex. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jos� Fortunato H.
