We have encountered a situation wherein it appears that the server-side validation
provided by the struts-validator and that of ValidatorForm.validate(...) appears to be
overriding the controller's nocache value.
The scenario we have encountered is follows:
1. user enters data on a page that is backed by a subclass of ValidatorForm
2. form is submitted but one of either server-side validation for a required field
(set via the struts validator plugin) or the ValidatorForm.validate(...) method
returns and ActionError.
3. the page is redisplayed with the appropriate error message(s).
4. the user corrects the form and submits.
5. the subsequent (success) page is displayed.
6. the user selects the browser's back button and receives the IE "Warning: Page has
Expired" warning/error.
7. the user refreshes the page via the F5 key or the refresh button, and the page as
displayed in step 3 is redisplayed.
Our controller is set to not cache any pages via:
<controller>
<set-property property="nocache" value="true"/>
</controller>
The ValidatorForm/ActionForm's scope is also set to request, thus the page should be
displayed empty.
This situation only occurs if the form is submitted with data that fails server-side
validation and the page is redisplayed. In a true "success" path, the page is
displayed as desired - empty.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
James
