it does not make sense if your error message was related to the absence of the lists for your drop-downs. The exception is coming from the RequestProcessor.processPopulate(), which is looking for something in your form bean to place the request parameters in.
Check your formfields as they appear in your HTML and see if you have equivalent nested or indexed or whatever properties to accept the request parameters.
As far as nested beans is concerned, if you put a hidden field into your page containing the count of the beans in your arraylist, you can then instantiate the required beans in your form's reset method.

Hi all,
I'm trying to use nested:select tag to display a combo with the selection coming from an ArrayList containing beans.
This bean is an class created by myself, FieldAttributeCompositeView. (see attachment)
When the first page is displayed, no problem, the combo generated is correct regarding the content of my ArrayList.
So my list is not null and filled when coming for the first time into the page.
When I try to submit the page (html:form), I get a null pointer exception because the ArrayList has been "lost".
