Robert,
In my action, on success I forward the request to a tiles definition called
content.addNewName, which in return calls another definition. Could the
data be lost because of this?
<action path="/journalSetType"
type="com.msdw.libra.ae.actions.selectNewName"
name="newNameForm"
scope="request">
<forward name="success" path="content.addNewName"/>
</action>
-SB
