What is the purpose of this confirmation page? Is this just a display of
what the user has just entered and asking the user if it is ok to submit
now? If the user is happy with the input, (s)he is supposed to click on a
"Done" button and if not, (s)he clicks on a "Cancel" button. Is this
correct? If so, forget about the Javascript, use ordinary Actions to
direct the user to the correct place. and you can just use the
<html:cancel tag for the CAnel button. (I think this was suggested by an
earlier post by Rajat Pandit..?) . I am no longer sure where you ran into
trouble in the first place..?

I assume the user is redirected to index.jsp only if there are no errors?
and you are using the form bean validate for checking input errors and so
on. What do you mean to do if there are no input errors but for some
reason the registration is a failure (as in database is done etc.?)

This is wierd. Seems like your onClick method isn't working correctly.
Have you looked at the source of the regisration page? Have you checked
for javascript errors? You could change you confirmSubmit() function so
that all it does is throw an alert so that you know that onClick is
working if you really want to dig into this. On the other hand, if your
specs are such that (as I suspect) Javascript will not even be needed any
more, maybe you can do away with this whole code anyway..
