What you cut and pasted suggested a typo of a missing closing slash before the end of the action tag:
<action path="/saveTestPage" type="myaction.DummyAction" input="/TestForm.jsp" name="testForm"> Should've been either: <action path="/saveTestPage" type="myaction.DummyAction" input="/TestForm.jsp" name="testForm"/> OR <action path="/saveTestPage" type="myaction.DummyAction" input="/TestForm.jsp" name="testForm"> <!-- something could go here, forwards, set paramters, etc --> </actino> Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Srinivas Gunturu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 28, 2003 10:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: JSP not displaying data when in Edit Mode I have resolved this issue. But can not explain how it is fixed. :-) Can any of the struts gurus out there shed some light on why this is so? My struts-config.xml <form-beans> <form-bean name="testForm" type="mybean.TestForm" /> </form-beans> <action-mappings> <action path="/testPage" type="myaction.TestAction" attribute="testForm" scope="request" validate="false"> <forward name="success" path="/TestForm.jsp"/> </action> By replacing following line <action path="/saveTestPage" type="myaction.DummyAction" input="/TestForm.jsp" name="testForm"> with <action path="/saveTestPage" type="myaction.DummyAction" input="/TestForm.jsp" name="testForm" scope="request"> </action> </action-mappings> I was able to get my TestForm.jsp display data and get it into edit mode. Though I am only trying to access http://localhost/myapp/testPage.do, I am not sure why NOT HAVING SCOPE in /saveTestPage action made it not to display data given in TestForm. Any ideas? >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/27/03 02:13PM >>> All, I am trying to get my JSP to display data from my form when in Edit mode. I am new to Struts and using Struts 1.1 I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help or pointers at resources would be appreciated. I have included my struts-config, my jsp, my action class and my form class. When I load my jsp, I am expecting to see "Filed1 value from action" in "field1" as defined in the action class. However, I am seeing the default "Test Field1" as defined in the ActionForm class. One thing I noticed is, my form is null in action execute class and I see 'Test Form is null. Creating new one..." in the console. Any idea what I am doing wrong?
